• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

This is the second bronco from these guys that I have posted. I will admit the body on this one is much cleaner than the last one, but in no way is this a $17,000.00 rig!! I don't blame people for trying to get top money for a vehicle, but these used car dealers are nuts!! Take a look at the space between the driver door, and the rear jamb. It looks like somebody picked the body up with out supporting it properly. Not a single shot of the under carriage! LEMON!

Seen a lot of broncos with space like that in the door jam pretty common even if the body hasnt been off. Its usually due to worn body mounts. the roll bar looks like crap and theres more holes in the dash than swiss cheese. but still suckers are out there and it will probably sell as soon as the right sucker comes along.

I know bronco doors don't usually fit the best(even straight off the factory line). I usually notice the bottom corner(opposite the hinge side) on broncos sticking out a little, but the line between the jamb and the door is usually pretty straight.

It's why I refer to Ebay as the usual fools gold paradise. People with more money than sense will gobble stuff like this up.

It's kind of funny that I happened to jump on here and see this post. I was just looking on Craigslist and ebay for a set of used tires and that led to looking at bronco stuff I don't need. I was noticing that every bronco on there is above 10k if it has a roof and doors. I think everyone has lost their god for saken minds. That or there are to many people with to much money that has got into these things in the last 5+ years. I have been in the bronco world for 17+ years and this has gotten out of control. You can't find a parts truck for less than $1000.

The lack of attention to detail has me skeptical. It's local for me and tempted to take a close look over the Christmas to see if it's as we all expect....a painted w/ tire dressing!
How about that "classy" tractor gas cap! How much would it take for just a small detail to put a chrome cap on it? Attention to detail is everything!
