• 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.

Still holding at $30k. I will not pay the ridiculous new photobucket prices!
I can e-mail pictures.


Selling the wife's 66 U14. Unbeleivable 66, that I don't want to sell, but she wants an automatic with the power options. I got what I want, so I guess she should get what she wants.
It was an award winner this year at Super Celebration.
Here is a link for pictures, I hope works.

Hey Dawg, just click the red triangle on the left and ask Jon to move it, he told me that makes it easier for him.

I saw this one at SC a few weeks ago, and it looks better in person. It is a top shelf restoration.

She is pushing hard for an automatic! Lowered to $30k. That will be the bottom dollar!
I'll just keep it and buy another one with auto.
