team-
been off the boards for a long while; still have my bronco.
long story short:
have a 1970 sport with a salvage title.
was driving one day over 10 years ago when the engine caught on fire.
insurance title paid out but declared it salvage.
bought it back from them for $500
only things destroyed were:
the frame and body and the rest are just fine.
once restored to looking good and driving, i don't ever plan to sell, and frankly am not so worried about getting what i put in back out if i ever do sell.
i can get full insurance (collision, liability, theft, fire, etc), so if fate takes her again i will be covered for my stated/agreed value.
that all noted, should i restore and rebuild the bronco?
any reason i'd be a fool to do so?
thanks for the advice (and opinions
) in advance......
best,
c
ps-wasn't sure where to post this....hope i got the right forum
