All right, finally found the guy at home and got to look at the Bronco near me. It's a lot rougher than it looked from the street. He say's it's a 69 and that he got if from a barn that's due to be torn down. Has all stock interior and 302, he said it's a 69 with a 302 is supposed to be rare.. yea, if you're doing a period resto maybe. Frame looked decent but the body is rough, really rough in all the good spots. Rockers, door bottoms, tailgate, etc, is full of rot. Even the fenders right behind the grill are rusted through in spots. It has a hard top that's a 6 out of 10 maybe. He said it was driven into the barn years ago but the motor won't turn and he thinks it's the clutch froze up. Motor looks like a daily driver that had 70k on it and has been siting. If you have a big garage and good welding skills and wanted to buy all the patch panels it's possible that you could restore it, it's not falling apart but it's not solid either.
Soooooooo... when I asked what he wanted he started in on the old this is my project line and said everything's for sale for a price. I'm guessing he paid nothing more than $500 for it if he gave anything at all. My opinion is that it's not worth more than $800-1000 as it sits. He said he'd be open to offers if you're interested but I'm guessing this may be more work than you are looking to get into.
