The market has definitely softened. This Stroppe would have bid much higher a year ago. https://www.classic.com/veh/1972-ford-bronco-stroppe-baja-edition-u15gln65043-WxNYOB4/?utm_campaign=MarketUpdate&utm_content=listing+hero&utm_medium=email&utm_source=alertsUpdate&utm_term=Ford+Bronco+-+1st+Gen

Sadly, the BAT platform has continued to degrade over time to a point that I will not use it any longer. The dumping ground for dealers and the manipulation of comments has corporate greed taking the platform to a place that real private users are limited in my opinion. It has been happening for...
