Trying to find my first car! 1974 Bronco Sold in 2002

Post by frasor597 »

I grew up with an early Bronco. Bought by my parents in 1987. Became my first car when I turned 16 in 2001. I have a few Photos of it still. Haven't seen it since I sold it when I was 17. The guy that purchased it lived it Fort Collins. I have not seen it since. Wondering if anyone has seen it around.

At the end of the summer I was taking my demolition derby car to a friends property to strip it down and scrap it. Sitting in the pile of derby cars and metal ready to get hauled to the crusher was a green 1973 Bronco. I called my friend right away to find out the story with the Bronco. He said it was on a farm where it was rolled in the early 90s and parked. After it was rolled the kids took it out in the field and jumped it. His plan was to haul it in to Andersens for scrap. I offered him 500$. He thought about it for awhile and told me to come get it for 400$. If i hadnt of been out there that day it would of been scrapped. Currently working on putting it back together.
