Seems reasonable given the market, the claimed condition and what's been done to it.
As someone who's been keeping an eye out for an EB, is it sacrilege to do whatever it is that needs to be done to convert the half cab to a normal Bronco?

Re: 1970 U14
Sacrilege?
Not quite, but the wagons are more common and less expensive/valuable.
Odd that the ad says less than 1000 km on the rebuilt transmission and transfer case, the US sales versions only had miles.
It may be even rarer due to export/import.

Thanks for the post. You know, I have been doing research and found the exact pic in the images of Google when "u14 bronco" is searched. Followed that and found this guy posting it in British Columbia back in April on some forum. He wanted $20k Canadian. That explains the km.
Then I went to Classic Broncos classifieds and found people commenting there on it. Perhaps a scam. I mean, why wouldn't someone want $39,800 instead of the "measly" $9,800?? Should have done some homework, sorry.
I'll still call tomorrow, but it's probably back to the world of $10,000 heaps.

Re: 1970 U14
My first gut feeling was scam. Broncos that nice with said work have more than 1 picture. Plus that Bronco is way too nice for 10k.

Re: 1970 U14
Yeah, taking a U14 and converting to a wagon is akin to cutting the fenders on a pristine stocker...perhaps a bit worse.
I'd love to have something like this, but to keep it at all practical for this family guy, I'd need the wagon as well. That being said, if this were a real deal, I'd be hard pressed to pass it up! Aside from the half-cab it's exactly what I would be looking for if I were in the market.

Definitely a scam...like Freewheeler said, it was on CB earlier this year for around 20K. And yes, it was in BC.

Yep. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showth ... p?t=254194
Wah, Wah. I really wanted one priced from the 1990's!
Looks like I'll inquire about this one instead:

Looks interesting, I'm still adjusting my idea of what they are worth in the new price/market.
My current Bronco is the roughest of the three I have owned, and I paid the most for it.
Some I wouldn't have paid $2500 for 15 years ago and the sellers ask $6000+
Four or five months ago there wasn't one for sale less than $10,000, but I see some for less so maybe a little sanity returned.
