That’s one long title for such a short vehicle (13.5 feet). I probably didn’t have to list all of those things, but there are two or three variables related to the 1990 Ford Bronco II XLT 4×4. The seller has this little time capsule posted here on craigslist in Spokane, Washington, and they’re asking $16,000. Here is the original listing, and thanks to Curvette for the tip!

Speaking of short, the first-gen Bronco was 10 inches shorter than this Bronco II, so that’s small. As far as the 4×4 part, they offered a 2WD version of the Bronco II, but it seems like we rarely see those. Unless you live in snow country or do a lot of off-roading in the desert or something, I’m not sure why a person would need to power all four wheels. This one is wearing a few accessories, as you can see, the visor with lights, running boards, roof rack, bug shield, a spare tire cover, and probably more. I would lose all of those other than the tire cover if it were my vehicle. It looks like tow bars under the front bumper, but the seller doesn’t mention that. This 3,300-pound Bronco II would be an ideal vehicle to tow behind your motorhome.

Another variation from the long title would be “rust-free,” as not many vehicles are truly rust-free that we see here on Barn Finds, or in person. I’m assuming that still means it has normal surface rust underneath, just no gaping rust holes. We’re getting nailed with snow this season in Minnesota, so it’s back to vacuuming water (melted snow) on the garage containment mats for literally hours a day. As much as I love vintage snowmobiles, I’d move in a heartbeat to an area without snow.

I believe this paint color is Light Sandlewood, and the interior color sure looks gray to me, which would be Medium Gray, but the only box checked for a Light Sandlewood exterior is Light Sandlewood interior, according to page 14 of this Bronco II brochure. I would have bet my gray hair on this interior being gray. Is this another special order maybe? The dash is as gray as the sky is here right now, and 299 other days a year. Another variation from the title would be the transmission, as Ford offered a Mazda-sourced 5-speed manual, as seen here, and also an A4LD four-speed automatic. The trim level is also a wild card, subject to the buyer’s likes and dislikes. This one is an XLT, but there was also a “standard” XL model, an XL Sport, and an Eddie Bauer version above the XLT.

In lieu of the ever-missing craigslist ad engine photo (starting it off right, 2026), here’s another photo of the gray/sandlewood seats. The engine is the only one available in 1990, a Ford Cologne 2.9-liter OHV V6 with 140 horsepower and 170 lb-ft of torque. Passing through a transfer case and a 5-speed manual, power is sent to all four wheels as needed. It’s said to run and drive like new and has 77,500 miles. Hagerty is at $9,900 for a #3 good-condition example and $20,700 for a #2 excellent one, so the price may be right on. How would you spec your Bronco II?
