1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT Black Free Wheeling 400 ci

An unrestored Raven Black with a Black fiberglass roof and Red Ranger XLT cloth/vinyl bench seat interior, this 1979 Ford Bronco Ranger XLT 4x4 is accompanied by a Marti Deluxe Report documenting its original factory specifications and highly desirable equipment. Built at Ford's Michigan Truck Plant and completed on April 4, 1979, this Bronco was ordered with the legendary 400 cubic-inch V8, automatic transmission, 3.50:1 rear axle, GT Bar with tilt steering wheel, air conditioning, speed control, handling package, light-duty towing package, increased-capacity fuel tank, privacy glass, convenience and visibility groups, and Ranger XLT trim. Most notably, it was factory-equipped with the coveted Free Wheeling Package, featuring the distinctive chromatic tape stripes that have become one of the most recognizable and collectible appearances ever offered on a classic Bronco. Originally delivered through Bob Rice Ford in Boise, Idaho, this Bronco represents one of the most sought-after configurations of Ford's full-size SUV. According to the included Marti Report, this Bronco is one of only 607 produced with its exact paint and trim combination. As the final year of the first full-size Bronco generation before Ford introduced the redesigned 1980 model, the 1979 combines classic styling with the powerful 400 V8 and one-year-only appeal that continues to drive collector demand. It has documented factory provenance, an exceptional list of original options, and one of the most iconic appearance packages of the era. Power steering is not currently working.
