Just saw this thread Jaromy. Good luck man, it looks like you're getting closer to a purchase. ;D

Thanks! I'm hoping to have one soon. Like everyone else, I want as much Bronco as I can get for the money in my pocket. I'm looking for a good deal. I'll be looking at the one in Tacoma on Friday and hopefully the one in Roseburg on Saturday if we can contact the owner.

I drove three hours south today to look at this one. I'm almost positive I'm going back tomorrow to buy it. I crawled all over it for a few hours and didn't find any cancer. Hasn't been started for a few years so I'll have some wrenching to do.

Looks real nice! Could use a slightly bigger winch though.;D Good luck on the purchase.

Man that must have been one patient seller. I'd have to throw in the towel after about an hour of crawling around.;D

Looks like a nice bronco. Uncut to boot!! How much is he/she asking? As for it sitting for a few years I'd be prepared to drop the tank and maybe replace the fuel lines if need be. Definitely do an oil change and tune-up. If it was running before being parked it shouldn't be too difficult to get her going again.

He was a nice guy. While we were trying to figure out the fuel issue I kept looking over things. I didn't find anything too bad. He started at $6500 and we're down to $5000 right now. He has a shop full of parts as well. Extra rear seat, head liner, C4, couple D20's and 3 speeds. I'm making the drive down there again today.

Looks like a real nice uncut. Good luck!

Same one as in the cloudy pictures above that you were chasing?

Hey Jaromy, You're on the road as I write this. If you bring it back I have an edelbrock calibration kit for the 500 cfm carbs (if that's what's on this one) that you can have. It has an assortment of metering rods, springs and jets that may help that old carb out. See you soon with your new ride. -Mark

Thanks Mark! I might take you up on that. I stopped off in Eugene for some food. We had a long day today trying to get this thing running decent enough to make sure it didn't have any other unknown issues. Couple trips to the parts store and a mouthful of 7 year old fuel, and we got it going.
