New Bronco
I just picked up a new bronco. Its a 79 Bronco with the ranger XLT package. Its in pretty good shape for the price I paid for it.
It was the last one I looked at. I didnt find a decent EB at the price I wanted to pay, so I got a 79 full size instead. I got a lot of extra parts to boot with it. I ended up spending 1400 for it. I thought it was a project bronco by the way he described it but when i got down there, I was suprised. Yes, It needs some work like brakes, alignment and a good tune-up, but it was worth it. It has a fairly new set of 33s installed on 12.5 pacer rims. The rims got a little surface rust, so I will be polishing them up tomorrow.

yo Hootie,
Good luck! Good truck too! We had a 78 till we sold it about 3 yrs ago; it's still on the road, and off-road I heard.
The EB editions didn't begin till '85 I believe. Maybe you were looking for the Special, Combination, or Deluxe 2 tone editions of the 78 XLT?
I have to go over to my son's sson to find some parts, such as rear wind. weatherstrips, bushings, and a 2" body lift, all new. Time to clear house.
