I did the same thing when I bought my 73 f250 from Washington state not everyone is a criminal.... you can get in some serious trouble if you do take the money from someone
Nice driver! I love the comment "when I get to that stage, it will be a quick one panel replacement" on your front door post. Unfortunately, you will find that the front door post is rotted, the inner kick panel is rotted, your inner and outer rocker is rotted, and the floor that connects to all those pieces is rotted. There's no sense in replacing any one of those pieces without doing the whole thing. Best to drive this while you fix your present Bronco, then when that one is done, think about starting on this one!
Your explanation is exactly why my other Bronco became a pile of parts 🤣. That is a serious thought of mine to just be ready for an entirely new tub later down the road. I'd love to keep the Patina of this alive, so potentially gutting the entire inside could be a possibility later down the road also
That’s what I was trying to say, it’s not as simple as this panel that panel… the whole structure of that is gone, it needs a whole new body as much as the other one and I’m not being negative I just have dealt with it myself… you start cutting on it and before you know it there’s no bronco left
I hope you didn't pay the 14k he was asking...... I paid 3k in Janurary for one in the same condition and I still had to completely frame off restore mine and have a new body built.
Glad you’re liking it so far!
Thanks a lot for selling this with such honesty! I was nervous, but I'm glad I followed my gut and trusted yall throughout the process. Thanks again!
Wired the money to a total stranger? You definitely have a heart of steel
I'm planning on making a video about this. There are dos and don'ts for this, but technically it's always a gamble

Good purchase for where you’re at, keep it simple. Small turbo.
