The story
After my '81 was totaled from being rear ended, I needed a new home for the performance 300 I had just finished building. I found this Eddie Bauer Bronco while on a road trip to Seattle and bought it on the site and drove it 500 miles home.
Stripped my '81 of all it's ''goodies'' and swapped them over.
The '85 came with a 302 V8 and an AOD automatic. I pulled them and swapped in my built up 300 inline 6 and a ZF5 manual transmission.
My wife named it the Bronco Phoenix, as it brought our beloved '81 Bronco back to life. — AbandonedBronco
