Found an interesting stash of Broncos today. I was driving in a part of town I normally don't travel through, but I always keep my eyes peeled for EB's.

Thought I saw a stripped EB up on a trailer out of the corner of my eye, so I turned around to check it out. Got up to the fence, and realized there were three broncos! The bronco I saw was a tub on a dolly. There was also a wrecked bronco, and an identical one that was rough but complete. All were painted the same color.

Did some snooping and discovered a fourth identical Bronco in much better shape. Also found the owner, a film rental company president. Seems I found the TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE II broncos!

Snapped some pics. All are for sale, preferably as a package. Check out the sweet rims! Also included are two hard tops and a half cab. I have not seen the movie, but it's sad that two broncos were killed in the making of the movie. All the Broncos were found by the company in Texas.

Enjoy!

That'd be awesome to own a Bronco from a movie...especially when they are in that shape and possibly cheap!;D

Saw the movie...it was a pretty insane roll-over at about 55-60MPH.

I'd say it rolled about 3 times. (Memory fades, and I have not watched it for a few weeks.)

I saw those last year when we were donating time to Operation Blue Santa. There were a number of hard tops in various shape on the South side of the building.

Looks like the Bronco's were "rode hard and put up wet"!

Thats the coolest find that i have seen yet. I would like to own them. You need to find out the price and get you a loan and scoop those up.

Well that is a pretty cool find. I bought some Rock Sliders off ebay last summer from a guy in Exeter, Ca. He owns the blue Bronco used in Charlies Angels and 50 First Dates. It still had the Indian blanket they used as a seat cover that Bill Murray was sitting on in Charlies Angels. The front crossbar of the cage was welded forward a bit to improve the camera angles and it had a biga$$ steel plate welded between the frame rails with an upside-down trailer ball attached. The owner said they used the ball to attach the Bronco to a fork lift in order to tilt it for camera shots or something to that effect.

I told the owner I would get back to him based on the info I got here. I will check on the price, and post it here.

My finder's fee is a set of the rims and tires off one of the trucks!!!!

Great find Matt! You have a knack for finding good ole EBs, I mean you did buy one of mine! ;D

Question, these EBs are from the 2006 "Texas Chainsaw Massacre The Beginning" correct? Not the old ones or the 2003 TCM with that Jessica Beal hottie.
