Soooooo nothing is set in stone but I may have to sell my Bronco.
Without getting into the why (considering I may not sell at all) whats my 1970 Bronco worth?
Rebuilt dana 20
"Restored" in a Bronco kind of way
New BFG MK2 tires
Nice interior
Old skool Warn 8000lb winch
New-ish paint
New floor boards
basically no rust
most of you have seen it...thoughts?

I've got a 1000k cash right now. I'll be there in an hour to pick up my new ride. Thanks. :)
But in all seriousness I have no clue what it would be worth. If it is rust free i'd say in the 5500-6500 range?

I hope that you do not have to sell it but if you really need to sell, your timing is good for a couple reasons. First, a few guys in the club are looking right now. Second, there is not much for sale right now. Third, you have such an awesome truck - slots, great color, taken care of, etc.

I would say in the 6-8k range. Wish I could afford another.
If you do have to sell, I herby propose you are grandfathered into the club. Someday you will own another.

I actually wouldnt sell unless it went to a CCB Member...with an option to buy her back, but that might be asking a bit much.

If the 79 has 8k in the glove box you have a deal

Billie, your truck is straight and looks good so 6-9k any day, plus don't forget the new rear axle bearing. That alone puts it in the upper range of my estimate!

I'd put it between 7 and 10k. If it were me selling it, and granted I haven't gone over it with a fine tooth comb, I would list it around 11,500 with a no less than 9000 as my reserve. Truck is damn clean and you've put a lot of hard work in to it. Don't forget that when/if (hopefully neither) you talk to potential buyers.

It would be great if it went to a Club Member but if you are in a hurry, I would take some sweet pics highlighting everything and get it on Classic Broncos, CL, and Ebay. That way you can have all 4 balls in the air at once. It is also nice to have ALL of the pics on eBay vs. the 4 small pics on CL. Remember to note that it is For Sales Locally on the eBay ad in case you need to end it early. I also noticed recently that eBay has classified ads that would have the same exposure on eBay with a set price for as long as it is for sale. That is a sweet ride and feel horrible you need to sell.

Great job on the ad for CB.com. Good description and pics. It will be a sad day when it sells and unfortunately it will sell. Such a great Bronco.

Ditto...but it is what it is, and it won't be my last EB. I ll still be involved here regardless. The site and CCB as a whole stands with or without me owning a Bronco...that puts a smile on my face =)

Billie,
I'm bummed to see your rig for sale. It was the first bronco I drove. I'll miss seeing it at the meetings, but it'll still be way cool with you there.
The truck doesn't define the man, the man defines his truck.

Billie - I think we gave you bad advice.
Your ride is worth 25k easy, you shouldn't take any less than 24,500

Well if there were a price tag on emotional attachment 25k wouldnt cut it either. I'll still be around regardless, I'll be at all the BWB and Kinders send off for sure!

I remember when I sold my second bronco. The yellow and purple in my post in readers rides. After 2 years of hard work and over $20K invested, I sold it. I bought a stupid croch rocket. Though fun at the time, that bronco was part of me! I HATED seeing it drive down the street! I really feel for you. It sucks!! ...and it suck for the rest of us having to see you sell it. But its that way for a reason. And when the time comes, an awesome deal will present its self.
...hope you some how come across some money and dont have to sell it!

Sold...pending me finding a good Jeep. The one I was interested in got sold before I had time to get over there. I actually just got back from Silver Thorn to look at one, it was beat up kinda bad. =(

Holy crap...that seems a lil too good to be true but I'll look into it for sure!
I keep looking at lifted XJ's for the in line 6...I had one that I drove from Michigan to Alaska, back to Colorado and back to Alaska 4 times and it never needed anything but oil changes and a set or 2 of tires. Do you know of anyone selling one thats not beat to $hit like the one I looked at today?
