Paul Walker's Personal 1995 Bronco Is a Real Beauty
Late actor Paul Walker had quite the personal car collection in real life, and now his beautiful Bronco is headed to auction.
Personal Ride
Among car enthusiasts, the late actor Paul Walker is a bit of a cult hero. Partly because he starred in the ultra-popular Fast & Furious movie franchise, but also because Walker was a huge car guy himself in real life. Now, a few of his personal vehicles are going up for auction at the upcoming Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale auction, including this gorgeous 1995 Ford Bronco.

Super Special
Aside from its obvious star status, this particular Bronco is a real gem with just 30,252 actual miles showing on the odometer. As a result, it's in exceptional condition, inside and out. It's also an Eddie Bauer Edition, so you're also getting a Bronco fully equipped with all the best Ford had to offer in the mid-'90s. And that makes it special all on its own.

Adequate Power
Pop the hood and you'll find the original 5.8-liter 351 cubic-inch Windsor V8 sitting in a spectacularly clean engine bay. The factory ratings of 210 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque may not seem like much by today's standards, but they're enough to get this big Bronco where it needs to go. The engine is backed up by a 4-speed automatic transmission for easy cruising, too.

Copious Comfort
Inside is where the Eddie Bauer Broncos really shine, of course. There you'll find copious amounts of tan leather covering comfy seats. Everything here is neat and tidy as well, showing little wear for a vehicle that's now a quarter-century old. And a host of power options mean that you'll be cruising in absolute comfort and luxury, too.

Perfect Contrast
That's not to say the exterior of this Bronco isn't absolutely beautiful either, because it most certainly is. The black and tan two-tone paint still shines perfectly and provides the perfect contrast for this beloved body style. The Bronco also rolls on factory wheels and some beefy looking BFGoodrich all-terrain tires that fill up the wheel wells nicely.

Plenty of Appeal
We've seen plenty of nice last-gen Broncos recently, but this one certainly stands up there near the top. Throw in the fact that it was also owned by a rather revered celebrity in the car world, and that just adds to the appeal.

Hefty Price Tag?
Thus, we expect that bidding will be rather brisk on this particular big-bodied Bronco. With prices rising steadily and interest in Walker's personal rides obviously pretty high, you can bet that this one won't go cheap. But we'll still be tuning in when it crosses the block, just in case!
