Talking to a guy about his bronco

Went out for a ride today, saw 3 broncos none for sale. One was a 75 Ranger the owner bought new, plans to give to his daughter. The other two I know the owners will not sell and the sad part is they haven't moved in years.

Was wearing one of my Bronco shirts and while in a store an older man said "I know what that is" while pointing to my shirt. He started telling me about his bronco that he had bought new, and I was thinking he was talking in past tense. I asked him what did he do with it and he told me he still has it in his garage with only 36,000 miles on it! I asked if I could see it and he said it is buried under a lot of stuff and the that the inside is full of boxes. I asked him his plans and he said his son-in-law wants it but didn't talk kindly of him and said he had already gave him an old Mustang that he didn't do anything with, other than let it rust. I asked him would he consider selling it and he asked me to come back by cause he had to close the store but seem interested and mentioned he would like to clean out the space. So hopefully more to follow....

We talked some more over the past couple of days about his bronco. Its a 1969 and has a little over 44,000 miles on the odometer that he said is about right. He loaned it to a family member back in 2001 (last time it was tagged) for a few months. It's a 302, 3-spd on the tree, power nothing. Said had it repainted once back in the 90s (same color) and it appears they did some work on the driver's floor pan. Looks really solid however, brakes are shot and main gas tank not working and he has straps hanging out of the bottom of the doors to keep them from shutting since door handles are not working too good. Would like feedback on what ya'll think.
