$11,500 Starting Bid... No Reserve...

I saw this Bronco on eBay not too long ago. Price wasn't nearly as high and didn't have a reserve then. Wonder if this is the new owners auciton or the old auction didn't go through cuz someone found out it's worth more then the auction ended at?

Same owner , new price . Hoping a higher opening bid will get somebody to pay what he wants for it ? ! %)

Just plain crazy. I didn't read the entire thing, but is there anything there to in fact certify that it was a Stroppe, not a copy cat, or that it still has the Stroppe features that would make it have any value despite the fact that it has been otherwise de-stropped in the paint.

I think the fact that it has been de-Stropped really hurts it's value.
Not a smart move.
Maybe Andrew will chime in with his opinion.

Bronco

This truck is fairly close to me. I spoke to the owner who is also a member on this board. He is a bronco collector and has a few of them in his collection. This bronco I believe was originally purchased from Andrew. It is an authentic Stroppe. Not sure of anything other then that on the truck.

I figured i may as well throw in my two cents since its my truck yawl are skeptical about!

yes it is in fact a Certified Stroppe if you would take the time to read the description and look on the registry you will find it there! the frame also matches the vin. the door tag and data plates are original and match stroppe #s.

I did not De-Stroppe the truck in anyway, it remains in as found condition along with its original blue and yellow California Tag. All the Stroppe Equipment is intact. Still has the Stroppe trimmed front fenders. The truck is one of the straightest Bronco's i've ever seen with fit and finish excellent. Basically needs minor rust repairs, paint and seats. I have estimate from a reputable Bronco restorer to redo the entire truck frame off for less than 14k.

unfortunately E-bay is basically a waste of time nothing but time wasters and bottom feeders! I received more interest for my rusted out 68 sport than this truck! Go Figure.............Ed

TO STROPPE or NOT

I looked it over on ebay and shure looks like it still has the Stroppe items on it to me. If painting it blue makes it an DE-STROPPE then mine must not be a Stroppe any more eather. Come on you guys, if you take off and replace the door panels of your sport with diamond plate panels is it no longer a sport? Thanks Bob ;D

I've looked at it on these pages for quite some time. If I had the cash it would be in my garage instead of his! Looks like a great start to a great investment. Best of luck Bronco-ed

Thanks for the support guys! this truck is a great investment and an excellent buy right now! The price will never be as cheap as it is today! I hate to sell it myself, but another very collectible vehicle has made itself available to me. I'm just looking raise some cash to buy this other car. Once i a lifetime opportunity is staring me in the face!..........Ed

Good Luck Ed.. Pretty nice Bronco

 

[broncosbybart]

eek, that one fender looks scary. any idea how it is rusted so badly? it kinda makes me worry about the rest of the truck. FYI, the roll bar isn't a stroppe item, but yes everything else looks good, down to the steel wheels. good luck w/it. i've kinda got my 72 for sale but haven't had any takers yet.

 

[bronco-ed]

The Front fenders might look scary but there really not that bad! the rest of the truck is solid and straight. those front fenders are the original Stroppe trimmed one FYI. You are correct the chrome roll bar in the pictures is not a Stroppe item. I have a Stroppe Bar that goes with the truck! this truck spent its entire life except the last 3 years in Southern California. My guess is it was driven as intended on the beaches of SoCal and Baja....Ed

Yeah, the house it lived at before Ed got it, was on this little jetee by San Diego, and had lived there most of it's life. Near a big boat pier. Anyway, the rust is pretty much only from wheel spray, but it did NOT effect the door posts or pillars. Just straight up on that fender and in the rear quarters just above and back a bit of the wheels. Strange place to rust, but not when you consider where it was used. If I didn't have a full garage/property I would consider this truck again as the frame was pretty and it drove great.
