Description of 1988 Ford Bronco II XLT |
| I bought this vehicle knowing it had been parked for 4 years. We aired up the tires put in a battery and it started right up and I drove it home on lopsided wheels. Had the engine rebuilt by a local shop. Took the entire vehicle apart sand blasted any rust from the underside and after re-priming used truck bed liner (which is bullet proof) on exposed surfaces. Put in the rebuilt engine and decided to add a new fan new alternator (50 amp) new A/C compressor new fuel injectors new wiring new coil/distributor and more. Added headers and a low resistance catalytic converter (expensive) and dual resonator exhaust. Had the transmission rebuilt.Put in new tie rod fittings raised the body 3" put in all new body-to-frame bolts new brakes and shocks as well as new wheels and tires. Took out the entire interior carpet replaced the stereo speakers with new. After a thorough cleaning used FatMat soundproofing on the floor sides doors hatchback and did a very detailed job. Put in new carpet new floor mats with (F-16s embroidered on floor mats) just to keep them clean! Put on new dash face cover - perfect fit. Put a dashboard carpet cover because there are some cracks on the sun-exposed dash top. Put in new visors and a new rear view mirror.Sanded body did only very minor body work required for a couple small dings primed and painted two-tone with metallic silver body and midnight blue roof. Not a professional paint job but looks good with a few less-than-perfect spots. New headlights new bulbs from blinkers to interior warning lights.It should should be a good driver for a long time.. Not much that isn't new on this one. Runs great with an occasional rough spot (probably a short somewhere) I've put under 1500 miles on it since the refurbishment. I hope to get some portion of my investment back recent back problems keep me from further working on the project..Click here for short video. |
