When was the last time you saw an original 1978/1979 Ford Bronco, one with steel wheels and small tires?

In a world of big and lifted Broncos, this low mileage ’78 is a sight for sore eyes. Throw in the fact that it looks great, and it only has a mere 47,000 miles on the odometer—it’s hard not to get at least a little worked up!

Perhaps the most beloved generation of Bronco among Ford truck fans, the two year model range is a unique vehicle in the automaker’s history. These big-bodied sport utes are quickly becoming collector’s items, and this one looks to be a great investment given the low miles and it’s awesome condition.

The grey exterior and red interior color combination looks great, and there isn’t any rust in sight. Save for a couple of stone chips, there is minimal wear inside or out. This Bronco comes equipped with both a soft and hard top, and engine power is provided by a 351 block, backed up by an automatic transmission.

Bidding for this classic Bronco has been fairly brisk, which isn’t a surprise at all. If the mileage is correct (and it appears to be), this is a great investment in a vehicle that hasn’t really reached it’s potential yet.  And for fans of the 78/79 Broncos, it’s nice to see a low mileage, original example still out there.
