1993 Ford Bronco Custom
For consignment, a rarely seen Custom version of the 1993 Bronco from the blue oval. A former Border Patrol vehicle from Arizona, come scenic PA in 2019, albeit at that time it had a blown up engine. Many upgrades have been put on during the routine maintenance life of this vehicle, and a repaint has been performed leaving us with a rust-free example that's ready to show and haul. A crate engine from Autozone with the remainder of the nationwide warranty, sporty wheels and removable hardtop this is full size 4 wheelin' with the classic Bronco look.
Exterior
Very clean and Steel Blue Metallic bathes the hood, cab, sides, and gate, and lower portions of this Custom series station wagon...yes, that's how they are titled. Some roughness to the finish is noted along with some inclusion, but nothing that a good wet sanding and polishing couldn't fix. A body matching painted fiberglass top is installed and can be removed to give you an open-air option. Badging and chrome is correct and in excellent condition and I love the fact that no striping or fanciness has been added to break up the nicely industrial slab sided steel. Nearly new knobby BF Goodrich all terrain T/A Radials are on all 4 corners, and wrap large polished aluminum Mickey Thompson wheels with locking hubs. A clean tailgate finishes off our tour and is equipped with a power window.
Interior
A swing of the doors reveal a pair of large overstuffed buckets clad in herringbone patterned gray tweed broadcloth on the seating surfaces and smooth lighter gray broadcloth on the sides. A rear bench, which will fold down expanding the already spacious cargo area, is installed behind the buckets and matches the buckets perfectly. The front buckets are manually actuated with power bolsters and show with light wear and tearing on the outer part of the lowers and the rear bench seat is in nice unused condition. The dash setup is standard Ford fare with gray over black for the inserts with a cracked gray padded topper. This dash was formerly blue and dyed gray by our consignor. The doors use some gray vinyl and molded plastic panels and present in like new condition. All business here with crank windows, manual locks and manual mirror adjustments. The standard black steering wheel fronts the analog gauge cluster complete with its LCD odometer readout. Storage room is ample in the rubber matted area behind the rear seat, but we do note heavy scale rust on the rear floor along with a few areas where the rust has created holes in the flooring. Heavy duty black rubber matting in a lightly soiled black color is covering the front floors as well.
Drivetrain
A replacement 5.8 liter V8, with all new sensors, is fed by EFI lurks in the cavernous engine bay with everything looking just great with a light coating of patina and dust. The engine is a replacement and is covered under the Autozone Nationwide Warranty until the end of April 2025. This warranty covers parts and labor, so rest assured this truck will haul for you for many miles. A recently serviced E4OD 4-speed automatic transmission is attached to the back and sends power to the 3.55 geared rear axle when in 2-wheel drive mode and to both the front and rear axles when 4x4 is engaged.
Undercarriage
Clean, some surface rust on the untreated components with no structural damage and even the untreated factory floor pans are looking great save for the earlier mentioned cargo area invasive rust. Radius arm and coil springs for the front and leaf springs for the back with all new bushings provide the ride and new power disc brakes are upfront, and new power drums on back bring this bucking horse to a halt. Our consignor notes that the driveshaft U-joints were recently replaced and new wheel bearings were installed on the hubs. A single exhaust snakes its way rearward then joins a Flowmaster muffler before splitting off into dual piped tips that exit behind each rear wheel.
Drive-Ability
The test track was no match for this big Bronco. Smooth acceleration, good handling for a truck and plenty of creature comforts that work perfectly and biad free stopping, while a bit hairy due to a soft and sinking brake pedal, was adequate. While we didn't take any off-road excursions but we were able to engage the 4 wheel drive with success.
With a new warranted crate engine, a very nice exterior, and a clean interior this hauler has lots of life left in it. Lots of recent service performed and cold air conditioning. Well cared for and runs nicely with plenty of power if you want to rock and climb!
