I've joined the ranks of the Bronco II owners:
I bought it for $350.00 from a member in Virginia.
It's a 1984 Bronco II XLT. It has a rear opening window in the rear hatch, bucket seats from a newer B2, a freshly rebuilt C5 transmission, a 302 V8, and a 3-inch body lift.
The motor knocks and needs rebuilt.
I was going to rebuild the 302 in TRS-1 for more power since I'm adding bigger axles and tires and felt guilty since it already has a good motor. Now my plan is to take the 302 out of TRS-1 and replace the motor in this B2 with it.
I won't be taking the B2 off-road. My goal is to build something nice that I could take to shows.
