I have a parts bronco that I am tearing down to use the frame for my white one. I just learned last night that the bronco I am tearing down has the free wheeling package. So I do have the title and door tag and fender tag all to match. I may end up turning my 79 into a 78 by the time it's all done in a few years.

Since I'm feeling to lazy to search, what's the free wheeling package?

It was basically blacked out bumpers, mirror, special decal, red interior. Some came with a cb from the factory.

This is kind of what my red one is supposed to look like.

Bronco runs/drives with a few glitches in the engine electronics (but it's been sitting for a few months.) and it appears to have air in the lines since the pedal goes to the floor, but all the tires will stop.


Also snapped a picture of the 350 and bronco with their light bars, doesn't really fit the 350 but the bronco looks nice.




Oh and I found the source of the 350s fuel leak... So I fixed that too.
