Here's one of my favorite color combos ever for an EB. You could only get a Red/Red Bronco in '73 and '74 with the Explorer package. The interior is in good original condition. The Ranger spare cover with the spare mounted on the tailgate, is one of the nicest that I've seen because it was inside the Bronco since day one.
The tub is rusty. The doors, windshield frame, tailgate and top are good, nice uncut dash with AM radio, plus all the original parts. It lot runs, drives and stops. Here's some pictures.

The tub could be used, but it would need some work. It's too bad it's not as nice as the interior!

Always had an affection for that color combo uncut. My first bronco looked just like this one. Wish the tub was in better shape, I would have tried to buy it. I don't need any more headaches.

It would need front and rear quarters for sure. Someone painted it years ago and did poor prep and skim coated the F/R qtrs and that's when the problems started.
If you have another tub you could take 2 and make one, or drive as is for now.

Chris,
How are the door posts and strikers? Kick panels and rockers? Mechanically, what does it just have to have to be a daily driver?

Love this red on red, especially the Viking Red, but I have always found it odd that the red vinyl used on the front seats and arm rests is always a darker red than the vinyl on the back seat (back seat vinyl looks almost like the actual Viking Red paint).... maybe its just me.

The posts and strikers are decent, so are the rockers. Kicks have some rust. It's been sitting. Should flush fuel system, go through brakes, and it will need tires....That's all!!

OK baja Is this a hobby for you or do you make a living finding and selling these trucks? You have posted up a few good ones lately, and I figure you must be looking all the time. When I need another one I will check your current inventory. Or just tell you what I want and let you find it.

bax, I wish!! I have a "real" job. Finding unknown Broncos is an obsession, I know you can relate. I've been doing this so long, a lot of these "find me" even though I'm always looking. The Black one I've had since the Spring, the 72 uncut was offered to me too without searching...I had to buy it!!

Ooh, PapaRedFish is a deal just for the interior alone, IMO. This is a rare truck folks. The mat looks good too.

more pics

I have had a few requests for pictures of strikers and posts. They all have an older thin coat of red paint on them. It wasn't prepped before, that's why it's flaking off.
Other than the drivers post the others look pretty good.
Thanks, Chris
