Back in College in about 93 I started looking for a Bronco to buy. Been wanting a 78-79 for years, but got talked into EB's by my mechanic uncle. Really trusted him and can't say I am unhappy with the decision.
So I had been looking for about 8 months, Southwest VA and Southeast WVA and all I found were rusted hulks that the owners wanted 3,4,5K for. "Greatest truck in the World" they would say.
Well, sitting in Blacksburg Va one day for lunch and a guy pulls into the B'King I was at with a for sale sign in his window. He was from Bristol, TN and was on his way home. Followed him home that day with a buddy and bought it for 2500. Stock all around, uncut, (some dents and scratches, very little body rust.) 302, (since then top rebuild)
I LOVE this truck. I have had 4 others (both running and not) over the years. They have all come and gone, but this First one will be with me until the end.
