Bronco Appraisal

[J’s Bronco]

Hello, New member and first time to post.
I have a 1979 Bronco Ranger XLT with the 400 engine, that I have been told is rare due to color and package. Is there a place to look that up? I restored it back to original colors and kept the interior same as factory. Just curious and looking for advice on value or maybe rarity.

Member Hillbilly Heaven wrote "several others. Great source for complete running gear and parts. Since there is no way to make the factory electronics standalone due to built in security you will need the Ford Performance Power Packs for the engine and transmission. Tumblin can help you with that as well.
