1996 Ford Bronco XLT

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Hagerty Marketplace is honored to offer a selection of vehicles from the SugarCreek Collection. This private collection in southeastern Ohio is supported by its own in-house restoration and maintenance shop, with a full-time staff of craftsmen. The garage is a true spectrum of car enthusiast dreams, ranging from unfinished restorations to the most recent SEMA-exhibited 1,000 horsepower 1962 Dodge Power Wagon. Sixteen select cars from the collection are being offered in time for the holidays. Whether awaiting restoration, preserved showroom stock, restored to like-new, or tastefully modified, these cars and trucks are truly SugarCreek quality.  

When Ford unveiled the fifth-generation Bronco in 1992, it did more than just create a new model. These Old-Body-Style (OBS) SUVs, along with the smaller Explorer, helped to transform the segment from being a rough off-road vehicle to a family hauler. While they were still vehicles that were capable of a weekend camping trip at the nearest national park, it was also equally suited to hauling the kids to school or the weekend grocery run, thanks to their increased level of creature comforts. A choice of V8 engines offered smooth running with power to allow for easy towing.  

A perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and off-road capability ensures that Broncos like this 1996 XLT — restored by SugarCreek in 2009 — find a broad appeal as a wonderfully usable classic.
