• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

Price has been reduced for quick sale! We are moving and I cannot keep the truck! Please make an offer, or email if interested and we may be able to work something out!


So it has come to this, I have to sell my truck. I really don't want to do this, but it must be done. I cannot afford to keep it, and I would rather sell it then have something else happen to it. I will start with a full description of all the features, but feel free to ask about anything that I am not clear on.

  • Only about 1 foot of the fuel line is rubber.

PROBLEMS

  • Door hinges have had new bushings, but the driver's side still is hard to close. I suggest new hinges all around, although passenger door closes perfectly
  • One dent, in rear passenger taillight housing, under the rear bumper
  • There are no wipers, I was going to use the WH electric ones, but rainex works great.
  • No heater. Amp took that spot. I was going to use a compact custom heater, but I don't drive in winter much
  • TIRES - they are bad. Period. I have a set of 35" tires that you will get with the truck, used but still in excellent shape. You will not be disappointed with them.
  • The truck has been sitting a while, and it could use new belts. It starts, runs, drives fine.
  • Rear seat is not bolted down. I was in the process of fabbing some brackets. If you don't care, just drill 4 holes and ad bolts, and it's good.
  • The very top strip of chrome on the driver's door got lost...on the freeway somewhere. I didn't know until I saw it missing. replacements are available.
  • Front Bumper. It's hideous. I wanted to replace it with a prerunner bumper, so I never bothered with it. It's only there for legal reasons.
  • I have the passenger side mirror, but it is cracked. Chrome is excellent, but it needs work.

So that's what I have so far. There is SO much more that I am forgetting. I have ALL KINDS of spare parts, extra parts etc. There is nothing missing. The rear seat armrests are included, I never got to those.

You will have a HUGE stack of receipts for this truck, with documentation for EVERY NUT AND BOLT. when I say that, I mean it. You will not find a Bronco owner that is more anal and meticulous than I am....sometimes to my disadvantage

I HAVE OVER 20,000.00 IN RECEIPTS FOR THE VEHICLE ALONE...THAT'S ONLY WHAT'S DOCUMENTED!

I HAVE the rear seatbelts, also, along with all the leftover wiring from the install, and a few huge bins FULL of parts for the truck. You will have everything you need, and some you don't!

EVERY nut and bolt is STAINLESS unless it is load supporting. ALL OF THEM. I don't do a half assed buildup using 30 year old bolts, you get the finest quality stainless hardware on the market. Not only the bolts, but every nut, screw, washer, anything that was replaced got stainless hardware. ALL bolts are indented hex, not just regular bolts. With VERY little work, and some paint, this could be a show stopping truck.

I have TONS of pics. I can get video if you like. I priced it high, but don't be scared to make an offer. All resonalble offer will be considered (keep in mind this is my baby...my project for the last 10 years. I will not part with it for nothing, and with MINIMAL work you will have a show truck.)

If there is anything you want to ask, feel free to call me or email me! Mrcat88@gmail.com
