recently had a local lady come into the shop that asked if i was interested in buying a bronco that they have had sitting i their garage a few years. my ears perked up and we got to talking. this is one i was not familiar with in our area.
turns out they have had it for a few years. impulse purchase. has always been a garage kept truck, DSO 22 carolina truck.
it's a 73, auto, PS, OE style PB & recently rebuilt 302 with very few miles since. fresh tires, uncut.
i went and checked it out and it's a really nice truck. has been repainted in the original brown metallic. decent single stage paint job. very straight & solid. found just a couple minor rust spots and not in the usual spots.
for someone who wants a box stock truck to drive right now this would be a great purchase. it's had a good life by the looks of it. started right up & sounds nice. has mild tone dual exhaust.
does have a neat center mount spot light that has the period correct vibe.
it has had AC at one time but interior parts are gone and compressor is un hooked. dash not all hacked up from it. condensor still up front as well.
the truck was too nice for me to buy to tear back apart to rebuild so i offered to help them find a good home for it. i'm putting it out to all of you as this group can surely appreciate something like this survivor.
the owners now are just looking to recoup part of their investment and move on as they now know it was just the wrong vehicle for them at this point in their lives. the husband is very tall and didn't enjoy the visibility challenges.
serious inquiries only please. i'm really busy and don't have time for tire kickers & low ballers. just trying to help some local folks out and hook up someone with a very nice truck. 20K
