So I found out a guy that I know has a 1972 Bronco that was his wife's grandfather's sitting in his shed. This bronco is all original (-)a custom built bench seat, clutch and a fresh paint job (factory color match and professionally painted). The heads and pan have never been off the engine, it has the factory headliner in the hard top. It starts and runs.. and the only blemishes I saw were the T-handle was missing and 2-3 minor nicks in the chrome body molding.

All that and I didn't check the odometer > . Anyway I see whats it worth posts on here and was just wondering, well, what this would be worth. I think this Bronco would be an excellent starting point for someone to restore to factory conditions. Oh and almost forgot to mention this Bronco is uncut.

Assuming that there is no other body work that needs to be done such as floorpans etc., I would think around $8,000 would be fair without looking at it first and if everything is all there.(One would not go around hunting for parts). Since it is an original uncut EB, it would be an excellent candidate for a restoration. It still all comes down to what a potential buyer thinks its worth.

RU buying., selling., or wanting to be a middleman..?

Bottom line., if these were old Ford pick-ups.., you'd be lucky to get $500

Because they're EB's....there's a mystique & a price spike. :eek: /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

The problems are rarely visible. :unsure:

I've turned down several like this @ $4000 as I know there will be 4-7K more in expences getting them road worthy. $-)

For a quick resale pull the carpet and check the floor boards, if good then go too the gas tanks, there bad, so add that and a fuel pump and filters and a ****** carb rebuild too make it a true runner and your budget 300-600.

Tires good bad? shocks? good bad?

Who will want a bronco 72 with drum brakes and no gears and or lockers and a dana 30 front axle, I quess uncut is cool too someone, someone might buy it as an old classic snow truck for fun, does the heat work? lights and guages?

Offer 2000 go up too 3500 if everything works, its just a 38 year old truck, fix and repair above stuff and hope for 6000-8000 on ebay minus repairs and comision too ebay. Go for it if you got the cash too play with. I have flipped 100+ houses and 25+ cars not broncos and then the stupid motor cycles 30+ ysr50s, ct70s mostly, yet the old bronco is still in the garage and gets wheeled, some times parts are worth more then the car entottal. Five years and its still a lookin like junk in the geeerage!!Check my sig,I firgure another few years it will be all tube and more buggyish haahaaahaaaaa

HAHA

As a keeper sounds like it needs 4-6 grand (or a whole lot of horse trading)too make it a wheeler, offer 1000 and tell them its just an old truck( FOR EVERYBODY READING THIS BRONCOS ARE JUST OLD TRUCKS)

Good luck BBB

( it would take me months too cut a rusty rig apart and lots off the $$$$ to make an old bronco right for todays standards of just driving down the road and more $$$ to go down the freeway then more $$$ to go offroad more$$$$)

Ok thanks for the input as of right now that Bronco is not for sale it holds too much sentimental value, however, it is rust free, everything works and it has add-od a/c, so I was just curious for what it would be worth in a ballpark figure.
