Man...........it is a buyer's market right now. Everywhere I look, I see cheap EB's. It is a shame that so many people are letting their trucks go so cheap. I really hope the value on these bad boys go back up.

Anyone else notice this? ?:? There are 4 or 5 in the Chicagoland area and surrounding states that can be had for less than 2K. Wish I had the space and money to collect them all up and store them until people have money again.

Just never falls together. Got space with no money and the start of a buggy. One more parts truck would complete the puzzle. Betcha I won't be able to find a single truck next spring.

Hey Mike, I saw broncojohn's post over at 66to77.com tell him to sleep on it. There's no rush. At the price I have mine listed for, I don't think it's going to sell anytime soon. But I believe it's a fair price for how stock and rust free it is especially in this area.

Oh believe me, he's thinking about it! Seems everytime I post one up, he is the one all over it. Hope it works out for both of you. :)

I guess I'm the exception to the rule. I could use the money right now, but I'm not going to be one of those guys who lets go of their truck for cheap like you said. If it was any other car I wouldn't care, but an EB is different. Each one is unique. I'm kind of attached to it. ;D

What area of the country are you seeing that trend?

It must only be that way up in your neck of the woods. Not only are they not cheap around here, no body is really selling them at all as far as I can tell. I know gas sucks right now, but I cant imagine that would force too many Bronco owners (relatively speaking) to sell their rigs. May force them to drive them a little less often. I'm certianly going to keep my eyes peeled for any cheap Broncos now!! ;-)

I'm in VA and looking for another project in the 2500-3500 range and nothing close. Either total junk or way out of my price range. No deals around here.

I've noticed that too. Gotta make that mortgage payment somehow, just wish I had cash to grab a couple more. That, and space to store them, and money for parts, and on and on and on.

I've been watching Craig's List around Denver. More EBs than usual but not too many smokin deals. The nice ones are still way up there. $1200-1500 for "restorable" ones.

I think the market is pretty soft in the NW right now. Nothing is being given away, but stuff that would have gone for 6-7 a year ago is going for 4-5 now and so on.
