1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer

Description

Born out of a unique partnership between an iconic outdoor and adventure-wear brand and Ford in the 1980s, the Bronco Eddie Bauer edition changed how people saw sport utility vehicles. Instead of just work trucks, SUVs became stylish family vehicles that combined the toughness of a truck with an outdoor-adventure image loaded with luxury and style.

Equipped with proven V8 power, body-on-frame construction, and a dual-range four-wheel-drive system, fifth-generation Broncos remain among the most sought-after examples of the nameplate, particularly Eddie Bauer editions, which represented the top-tier trim level.

This final-year production example is finished in Pacific Green and Light Saddle Clearcoat Metallic over Medium Mocha cloth upholstery, and it is powered by a 5.8-liter V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission and a dual-range transfer case. Equipment includes air conditioning, cruise control, and a power-operated tailgate window in addition to side-steps, 15-inch forged aluminum wheels, and an 8.8” rear axle with a limited-slip differential and 3.55:1 gearing.

This 1996 Ford Bronco Eddie Bauer shows just under 71,000 miles and is now offered with manufacturer’s literature, a CARFAX Vehicle History Report, and a clean Arizona title in the seller’s name.

Additional Details

From the seller: "This Bronco was leased by its first owner, a corporate executive in Chandler, Arizona. I purchased it from an estate sale; the previous owner reportedly bought from Ash Motors locally in 2001 with 51,390 miles. The second owner kept it stored in a garage, driving it approximately 1,000 miles a year. Being registered and driven in Arizona, this Bronco has no rust or damage to the undercarriage or body. The truck is mechanically solid; everything works, the AC blows cold, and the glass is free of chips or damage."
