I'm strongly considering the sale of my 73 Bronco. It was recently painted. The body is stright and uncut. Floors have some perforation, but will be replaced before selling. The hardtop has never been off.

The engine is a 302 and has an automatic transmission behind it. Rebuilt rear driveshaft. I replaced the heads at 60,000 miles. It now has 61,000 miles and runs like a top.

Some of it's features include:
Factory Power Steering
Manual brakes
NEW door and tailgate weather stripping
2.5" Duff's suspension
NEW drum brakes at all 4 corners
NEW brake lines front to rear
NEW poly bushings all around
Complete, new exhaust
31x10.5x15 off-road tires on stock rims
Stock hubcaps
Warn locking hubs
White stock interior, clean but not perfect
Rear seat
Dual gas tanks (aux not hooked up)

What do you think? I need a real-world value so I can make a decision as to which direction I want to take.

Thanks for the ongoing advice.

Jeff

None of my Business. But WHY would you want to sell a Jewell like that? I love it.

I must agree, I've really liked that thing since I first saw it. Very clean original bronco, I like the lift too

Thanks for the compliments. This is my primary vehicle and I need something that can carry me longer distances more comfortably (4-5 hour drives pretty routinely).

It's really a tough decision... one that I'm not making easily.

Indian Harbour Bch,
Damn dude, no way you can squeeze out getting a small hi mpg car and keep that??? Looks sweet...
You could prolly get somewhere around $8K and up for that...

I had been shopping around on Ebay and Traderonline.com and I could not find an EB that clean under 8K. You could even get 10K+ depending on the mileage and the condition of the interior. Take a look at what they are selling for on Ebay and if you want 2k more than what it is worth, then list on Traderonline. You could aslo get a little "gas gittin" Honda cheap-cheap enough that you could keep your Bronco. I am doing the exact opposite-I am selling my Honda and I bought a 77 Sport recently mainly because summer is comming and the mountains are calling my name. Also I got work closer to the house. Just my thoughts, J. E. Doughty-Colorado Springs.

Unfortunately, I need the money more than I need another car. For those of you who have contacted me, I'll be in touch shortly to see what we can arrange.
