1973 Ford Bronco Description

It's time to part with my Bronco after 22 years. I hate to see it go, but I simply don't have an opportunity to get on the trail anymore. The pics were taken about 5 years ago. The paint now shows some fading, chips and scratches, and the stars on the hood are peeling. I've listed all of the parts and upgrades that are noteworthy, but I know I have left some out.
This Bronco has been built up for extreme offroad trail crawling. I would remove the rear locker and gear up if you intend to use it on the street. Otherwise, top speed at 3k RPMs on the highway is about 65 MPH. If taking it on long trips, I recomend trailering it, at least until you get familiar with the vehicle. If you are not local, please plan to trailer it home.
302 and C4 Automatic were rebuilt less than 5000 miles ago. The rest of the drive train has less than 10k since rebuild. It runs and drives well.
