Used 1979 Ford Bronco for sale in Alpharetta, Georgia
Gateway Classic Cars of Atlanta is excited to offer this sharp 1979 Ford Bronco 4X4! The Bronco was all-new in 1978: bigger, more powerful, more versatile, and still rugged and ready to play. This second-year 1979 Ford Bronco has a great color combination and a 351 cubic inch V8: thanks to its rather civilized road manners, it is a great choice for any hobbyist with an active lifestyle. This might be one of the most familiar shapes in the 4x4 world, and it was a big step forward after a decade of the body first-generation Bronco. Obviously based on the F-series pickups, it has a clean, chiseled look thats only enhanced by the bright electric blue bodywork. The paint job was done very recently, and although it wasnt a $25k respray, it was done right and a truck like this needs no apologies and its in just the right condition that you wont think twice about going out and having some fun. It has a great luster and shine, and a proper cut and buff might even take it up a level, but then you might be afraid to use it as intended. The vibrant bright blue certainly makes it look sporting and the way it is offset by bright chrome really rounds-out the look. Big mirrors, a lift-off hardtop, and twin tailpipes out back all help with the heavy-duty truck look as well as functionality. The blue interior offers optional Captain buckets for front seat occupants, and it transforms the Broncos personality. The fresh and simple blue upholstery adds an upscale look and even the center console was treated to a makeover that makes everything look uniform. The rear bench wears a plain vinyl seat cover and remains in very good shape, providing a surprising amount of room for a few extra passengers. The dash should look familiar to anyone who has driven a 70s F-series truck, and its great to see automatic transmission, as well as the 2-speed transfer case. A later AM/FM/CD stereo with speakers throughout the interior sounds pretty good. There is also a monstrous cargo bay behind the rear seat with a heavy-duty carpeted mat, so it is neatly finished but still able to carry an impressive amount of gear. This is a great weekend getaway vehicle. When the Bronco got bigger, so did the engines, with this one using a strong running 351M V8. So, its plenty strong to pull the big Bronco around with enthusiasm. The engine itself is bright Ford Blue with a few chrome dress-up pieces, and it really stands out in the otherwise all business engine bay. There is a big radiator up front for slow going and both power steering and power front disc brakes were part of the package in this newer, bigger Bronco. It still uses rigid axles at both ends, which is still the way to go for serious off-roading, and the gearing works in the mud as well as on the highway. With first-generation Bronco values soaring, the second-gen trucks like this are already on the rise. A great look, lots of room, and a smooth powertrain make this Bronco a winner. Call today!
