Note: I had to put a price there in order to post this message. I am not sure if I am selling the truck. 18,000.00 is a number I just put there to get the post up.

Took these pics today 1.6.19. I am unsure if I will be selling the Bronco but I recently received an offer so I'm hoping to get a good idea of the value of the truck from you experts. I did read the post in the Selling section regarding the base value. The offer I received is higher than that suggested amount but lower as compared to what I've seen sell on Ebay.
The wheels are not stock.
1974 Bronco Sport model
Automatic
Power Steering
Power Brakes
Air Conditioning (it's there I never hooked it up)
Two reserve fuel tanks (they are removed but I still have them)
Bikini Top
New in box:
foam and upholstery for both front seats
rubber weather stripping
a transmission pan seal kit from Bronco Graveyard
Not new in box:
AC ductwork and compressor
ashtray
steering wheel horn bar
misc
The pics that don't seem to show anything are the inside of each wheel well. The rust shots are the tailgate, the seams of the rear quarter panels and some on the hood.
Two extra fuel tanks were added to the truck. I removed them to flush and reseal but I didn't complate that job. I still have both tanks. The tanks are filled through a pipe that sticks up through the floorboard. That is why there are circles cut in the floor near both front seats.
I have the rear seat in storage - its in great shape, no tears.
Mileage is original. I am the 4th owner. Truck is originally from Texas and has been in North Carolina since the 80s.
I have new in the box seat foam and upholstery for the front seats. I have used the ruck as a truck and have had kids and dogs jumping in and out so I never put the new stuff in. I also have new rubber water seals. It is a fun truck to have and drive.
I have the original spare tire and tire cover, sun shades and wiper motor cover.
AC compressor and duct work are in a box along with the ashtray and anything else that came extra when I bought it or anything that I have removed.
It leaks a little oil from the top and some power steering fluid leaks too.
I recently had the transmission rebuilt, maybe 100 miles ago. Refurb carb added about 50 miles ago.
I have used the truck to pick up stuff from Lowes and to deliver garden sculptures that I make, pick up the kids from school and just run around town. The previous owner is a friend of mine who used it pretty much the same. He said he bought it from the lady who drove it here from Texas.
Everything is original except the paint (was originally yellow). An electronic ignition and choke were added.
IMPORTANT- the truck has a Salvage Title. A guy hit me on the drivers side just a few months after I bought it. Insurance company totaled it due to that damage. You can see the damage in the pics of the drivers side door and front quarter panel. There are some stickers covering it but the metal is not torn, just creased with some rust.
I replaced the ignition and key cylinder and solenoid trying to track down a problem with drain on the battery. That's why the ignition is hanging there - I was going to redo the wiring but haven't yet.
No sag in the doors. Truck is solid.
So, body damage, some rust - the floor under the vinyl flooring has some surface rust but no holes - some drips, windshield is cracked, upholstery is rough, dash pad is cracked.
The power steering has a problem somewhere. Steering is a bit unsteady in curves - a major reason why I only drive it now and then.
Thanks for any feedback.
I need to keep a truck around for work. I would accept cash along with an older model pickup that is in good mechanical condition. I don't need a show truck but I do enjoy having an older truck. 50's to 70's and love trucks that look like Apaches.
