I have a 73 that has been a colorado vehicle it's whole life. They dont use salt on the roads like other states. I think these vehicles are just really prone to rust based on design and paint. Most of the early ones wer a hodge podge of parts from other Ford vehicles that were thrown together for quick sale. That may be the reason. Great video and advice. Cheers🎉
i have two good frames and running gears.....should i fix the bodies or spend 15k and buy a new one? it seems to me the labor to fix and paint would be betters spent if i just put new bodies on these frames...i have vins and titles
If you have time and enjoy the work repair the ford body. If you have money and don’t enjoy it then buy new bodies. It’s faster and cleaner but 10k more than just doing the repairs. Thanks for watching and good luck. -Spanky
I feel sorry for the person that bought that bronco. I don’t like it when someone gets ripped off like that. Who ever sold that bronco should never be aloud to sell cars

Yes you are correct. They all rust bad. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts
Nice video. Just as relevant today as it was 2 years ago.
Thanks for watching. Yes these broncos are still crazy.
Coming from AK should've been the first red flag. That's an unfortunate and expensive lesson learned
Thanks for watching

That is not the original rear floor. Not sure if it’s been completely replaced or just laid over original floor. But that floor is not original.
I point that out in one of the episodes on building this Bronco. Thanks for watching and please continue watching and sharing your thoughts

It will be alright in the end. They bring good money these days and parts are cheap. Thanks for watching and please subscribe
Jeez, talk about polishing a turd!
Dont get me wrong, its a nice truck.. But, looks like 15k to me!
Have a look at mine if you want to see rusty..
Thanks for watching
That rust doesn't mean anything after you rub a couple trees and kiss a rock or two someone would love it like it is for about 10k.
That bed floor is not original at all? That's not a bad price really. Buyer got what he paid for
Thanks for watching
