1972 Early Ford Bronco 4x4 Lifted

Description

Texas owned for the past decade, most of the work has been done by previous owner who kept meticulous records and clearly cared for this Bronco greatly. Included is the original owners manual, and receipt of purchase. I am sadly selling this Bronco as I no longer have the space to store it. It is in great shape for a 1972 vehicle, with that being said there are several cosmetic flaws that would be expected for a vehicle of its age. This bronco runs well and typically starts up on the first attempt. I recently drove it on the highway for 7 hours straight and had no issues. This vehicle drives as one would expect for a lifted vehicle with large 35 inch tires. There is minimal rust on the vehicle, and it has had the floor pans replaced recently. Another great feature is power steering, which makes driving very smooth. I will include a lengthy list of what has been done over the past 5 years or so, please note that when something is labeled as new it was replaced in last 5 years, and may not actually be "new" as of 2018. I am including as much information about the Bronco as I have available.
