Vehicle Description
When you build a vehicle as special as the Bronco, you have to have
some fun as well. In 1981 Ford added a special package that you
could order called the "Free Wheeling" package. This special order
setup gave you the following upgrades; leather wrapped steering
wheel, sport instrumentation (tachometer, trip odometer, oil
pressure gauge and ammeter), Fog lamps with covers, front bumper
guards, dual front shocks, chromatic tape stripes, and front and
rear sway bars.
We are extremely excited to bring this 1981 Ford Bronco Free
Wheeling package to market. With just over 73k miles this is almost
as authentic as you can get. This stunning truck has been very
nicely preserved and is a vehicle that will have no problem getting
noticed at any car show or beach scene. 1981 was the only year that
Ford offered this setup and is believed to be less than 1,600
Broncos were ordered this way. Vehicle was sold new out of Peak
Ford Sales in Gilbert West Virginia on 12/11/1980 and remained in
the same area its entire life before we obtained the vehicle
recently.
According to the Deluxe Marti report vehicle was optioned with the
following features; 5.0L 302 V8, 4spd manual transmission, red
cloth/vinyl bucket seats, 3.5 traction lock rear axle, digital
clock, sports instrumentation, chrome grill, fog lamps, skid
plates, white letter tires, bright low mount swing away mirrors,
handling package, A/C, AM/FM stereo with cassette, dual electric
horns, larger fuel tank, chrome rear step bumper, Ranger XLT
package, CHROMATIC TAPE STRIPES, black fiberglass roof, flip/fold
rear seat, and privacy glass. Further exclusivity states that just
371 Broncos were ordered this year in this setup.
During our test drive the vehicle ran strong and performed well on
the road. The 4x4 system engaged properly and even the A/C was
working and blowing cold. The vehicle starts up with ease and
engages into all gears with simplicity. The seats are in excellent
condition and duplicating this material is almost impossible. The
tachometer was intermittent on working and the tires will need to
be addressed. Enjoy a beautiful piece of Ford Bronco history with
this great vehicle. Pull up to the malt shop in style and have your
choice of your passengers.
Vehicle comes with clean CarFax, authentic and EXTREMELY RARE floor
mats, Deluxe Marti Report, owner's manuals, and upgraded Pioneer
stereo with CD.
