77 FORD BRONCO "U152 HEAVY DUTY"

Up for your consideration is my 1977 Ford Bronco U152 Heavy Duty! This is the last year of the early broncos and the best of drive ability with a C4 automatic transmission. power steering. power brakes. and electronic ignition. This bronco is all original with a dealer installed plow with date tag for plow on door showing date of installation. This is a 2 owner bronco and was never registered and driven on roads just bought to plow the owners driveway. This bronco is a time capsule and has a DSO code of Boston and the plow was installed in west Springfield Ma at O. R. Cote. The dash is a rare find uncut just missing radio. nbsp;dash pad is mint. The top is in near mint condition with a small ding in back pillar not bad and RUST FREE!! The hood is rust free. Seats are in good shape also no rips! Still has original bronco mat. Seat belts work. lights work. wipers work. heat turns on. overhead light works. and plow works. The glove box is all original and looks new with no tears. VIN tag is present and fuse box cover. Runs and drives in reverse only. When I found this had been sitting but yard driven occasionally the 2nd owner bought it from the estate and said he drove it 60mph home with out a problem with a farm plate and parked it with high hopes. 10 years later with some yard moves it started up with a jump pack and has started every time since. I changed oil. fluids. and saw it went in reverse fine but when in the forward gears it went hardly so seeing no trans fluid hardly and a broken shift linkage rod I ordered a kit and changed filter/fluid. I also changed plugs and wires (held onto original wires in good shape). oil sending unit. fuel filter. fuel pump. and air filter. Starts every time sounds great again everything works including the original plow and brakes but will need complete restoration or some patching if going to be used as a off road bronco. Will need exhaust and transmission work which I hear for a C4 is not expensive. This bronco is a great start being an all original uncut 77 bronco heavy duty with 31K miles ALL ORIGINAL untouched with the most features on an EB. The doors all open and close without problem. pillars look good. one might need some attention. Inner fenders look good where they normally rust out but on passenger side has a rust hole up where the grille meets fender. The cowl is solid. The bronco shows it has had a plow since 77 being dinged on both fenders both rockers and one bottom/back quarter. Tires are in great shape were recently purchased a couple years back. no dry rot and plenty of tread. Selling because I can't do two projects at once! This bronco will be sold as is with a $500 dollar non-refundable deposit through paypal and the rest be sent or brought in person within 7 days of close of auction also will have Low Reserve! Please bid with full intentions of owning this time capsule. I will help load or meet shipper just call with questions or to make arrangements for transport or viewing before end of auction.
