Hey everyone got some exciting news...looks like i'll be a dad come end of september! Pretty excited to start this new chapter but unfortunately something has to go. I know your already thinking "NO, NOT THE BRONCO!" but yes in a way. No, Im not selling the 68 that I've been working so hard on but the 70 I picked up 2 years ago. I was going to let it go fairly reasonable but my dad harped on my case to raise the price on it "pshh dads what do they know? lol " Anyways, if it wasn't for damn Jay Leno's garage this bronco would be getting out of the stables pretty cheap but my dad insists it a 30k bronco (i disagree). Anyways, to help appease him and make him think im trying to get top dollar for it I have it listed on eBay. Please try not to harp on me too bad but after looking at what similar broncos have sold for feel like I'm within market range even though I don't agree with it...so with that said try not to rag on me to hard if it pops up in "not mine section"

Congrats Ryan! (Not on the having to sell the Bronco part of the equation). That explains the new line of Bronco-themed baby apparel tho!

There’s an arse for every seat and a hat for every head. I’m a salesman. That’s how I take care of my family. I learned a long time ago that a great deal is what the buyer believes. Who am I to discourage or hurt their feelings.

Good luck and congratulations!!!!!

A running, drive able bronco starts at $10k these days. Usually all that gets you is a rust bucket... I don't know about 30K, but just from two pictures you should be able to get much more than 10K.

Congrats on becoming a Dad! Sorry a rig has to leave...

Congratulations Ryan! As to the Bronco, you can only drive one at a time anyway.

Congrats Ryan! I don't know many that could work trading a bronco for a young un but sounds like a great trade to me!

based on the two pics, without knowing anything else, if you can get 30K sell it and pocket the money. I definitely agree with north of 10K, if it is a solid driver. Congrats on the child.

Yeah, I think its worth 15K range, but I've seen others in this shape or worse go for more... The tub on this truck is solid though, even the inner fender skirts are in excellent shape. I wish my dad wouldnt have watched Jay Leno's garage because jays old beat up bronco was appraised at 35K on the show...%) I even tried pointing out what members are selling for on here but I got "oh that ones not original, that one has a glass tub...." dads smh.... anyways pretty excited about the little one coming, still have some time to figure out a more reasonable price, but if someone buys it awesome it's definitely money in my pocket that'll get put to good use. My little element is going on 10 years w/ 235k and it's getting tired so a newer safer and more reliable car is in the plans.

Everyone else thanks for all the "congrats" I appreciate it!
