CA 1973 Baja Bronco at the Mecum Auction, Anaheim 11/16/12

Lot F281 Friday November 16th

I'm selling my 1973 Baja Bronco. Andrew Norton and I have been working on this Baja on and off for 9 months now. It's been a lot fun and whoever gets it will have a really nice running, rust free truck with all the right Stroppe stuff.

Beautiful truck. What is the expected ballpark price for a truck like that?

What a beautiful rig! The SEFI 5.0 and the AOD make a more practical driver too.

I'll be looking to see how much it sells for at auction.

I watch hours and hours of these car auctions....and TV time is usually reserved for the muscle cars....it seems every time I see a Bronco or some sort of nice 4x4 on deck...they cut to commercial.

I hope not. I'm going to talk the Mecum guys while I'm there to let them know how special these Baja Broncos are. Hopefully it will do some good. But I'll trade TV time for two bidders that really want the truck... ;D

You're in LA, you should come to the auction. It's in the Anaheim Convention Center.

That's cool. Make sure to say hello.

Wow thats a sweet Baja! I'm very interested to see how is goes at auction so I know what to insure mine for when it's back on the road. Lets hope the bidders all have deep pockets. ;D

Nice thruck. I'm sure Mecum does not want the reserve price to go public.

HA! Like they would let me in....they could smell the "poor" on me. ;D

You don't have to be a bidder. I think the ticket cost $15.
For the most part you can walk up and check out all the cars just like a bidder.

My that is nice! Makes me second guess selling mine. If only I had some Mecum money laying around. I don't see that going for under $30k.

Original Stroppe stickers on the roll bar. We masked them off to paint the roll bar. Kinda cool.
