I took this off a 67 I'm rebuilding and saw on Facebook that people are looking for these. A couple people asked to buy it but I have no idea what they are worth. Any idea?

Probably $50-$100 depending on the condition of the chrome. Then again, given the insanity of today's Bronco market, someone looking for a retro-restoration might just pay more.
But that's what I'd consider a reasonable deal for both parties at this point.

I have seen them listed a couple times for about 100 bucks. Seems like they usually sell pretty quick too.

Thanks guys, I had two different offers of 250 plus shipping so it looks like they want it and are definitely in line for a real good offer then. I appreciate it.

Thats becaus getting chrome done these days is near impossible unless you have a mexico connection. they will never be remade chrome new again. so vintage is whats left. I used to have a Black painted one in the old days until I used it to pull a shatch em strap. still have the strap not the grill.

Too bad it's not like the one I had on my 74 Ranger back in the 70s that went just under the hood and also around the lights it was black.

Hey DirtDonk,

Have you ever seen a brush guard with the headlamps guards from back in the 70s floating around like the one on my Ranger? I know it's a bad picture but it's all I got, I was too busy off roading, hunting and drinking beer rather than taking pictures!

I've seen guards like that before. Pretty common back in the day.

I sold one of these just a couple years ago for $300.00. It was in Great shape though.

I've scrapped two of those, but when you were buying the whole Bronco for $300 the brush guard wasn't worth $3.

I wished I could find a Bronco for 300 to get to my daughter's place so my young grandson could look and and play around on it while I gather part's for when he's old enough to go 5hrough it qnd make it sound.
