So I've been a fan of the Bronco II since the 80's. A 1984 Manual 4x4 was the first car I owned in high school (Blue on Blue). Then in the mid 90's I ended up purchasing an amazing 88 (Grey on Blue) XLT which was my baby. I owned it for 10 years and with life and adding a child into the mix I was forced to sell her. For the last 5 years I had scoured the internet daily, all across the US, looking for that nostalgia vehicle to fill the void of my Youth! One of the most important things for me was finding the classic XLT Blue interior in excellent condition, which I must say is way harder than it sounds! Well finally after all the searching I found this beauty. Her name is "Daisy" she is a 1988 Manual 4x4 with 56,000 original miles. She was a single owner and I purchased her out of an estate in California and had her shipped to Florida. Amazingly, she was garage kept so the paint is original and with some wet sanding and buffing the paint looks almost brand new! I've been in the process of fixing and replacing some trim pieces here and some other stuff there but nothing major. I did put some 29x10.5x15 Thornbirds on her just because she looks so awesome with them and she's and in town driver so tire wear is not and issue for me. I'm so happy that I waited and was patient to find the right one. Everywhere I go I get compliments on her all day long. Have to love those out there that respect a classic!!
