I had a 79 Bronco for years. Been kicking myself for selling it.

Nice 1983 Bronco! I owned several of the 66-77 Broncos in the 80's & 90's, from parts to runners. 302, column shift 3 speeds. Wish I could have kept one or two. Bought a 2024 2 door for a retirement toy, 2.3L 4 cylinder with 7 speed manual. 12 mpg vs 21-22 mpg and about the same performance for stock engines.

Did not care for the Short WB Rides but had ALL the above, a 69 GM Blazer, a 75 Ford Bronco, a 79 IH Scout II, even had a chance encounter for a few months with a 78 Jeep Cherokee, buddy HAD to HAVE and sold it to him. TBH, Jeep was the best of All.

I blasted the bare and completely disassembled frame and pieces for a 69 Blazer in November. The rolling chassis is back together and all mechanical underpinnings are connected. The owner is awaiting the new reproduction body being welded together in Ohio which commenced last week. This is their first Blazer and they were perfecting the jigs to assemble on as the stampings come from Taiwan and are made from the original GM dies.
From photos I've seen it looks very good.
