1969 survivor - SOLD

[Gunnibronco]

1969 Ford Bronco U15, 21,xxx on odometer, 0/unknown miles on title
302 V8, 3 on the tree, 4.10 open differentials, ranch hand spare tire mount
This truck is as original, clean, and rust free as you are likely to find. Cowl/inner fenders & A-pillar/door posts are very clean & solid, with no signs of rust. Quarter panel seam & rear door posts extremely clean. Driver’s floor is rusty & passenger outer rocker shows signs of rust. Passenger floor has some rust, but is solid. Inner rockers are very solid. The hood has 2 small 1.5” rust spots/paint failures. The truck has been repainted metallic green, over the original paint. The paint is not perfect, I’ve included lots of pictures. I have the original side marker reflectors that were removed.
Original rubber floor mat in good shape. Seats & door panels were recovered by the previous owner. Doors open & close easily. Door locks & keys work. Headliner, wiper cover, sun visors, dash & dash pad in excellent shape. All heat, fan, wiper/washers, turn signals, headlights work. Tail gate, spare tire carrier & rear hatch, all in working order.
Runs very strong, starts very easily. Manual choke cable broken. Carb needs tuned/adjusted, stumbles some at idle. 3 on the tree shifts very easily & smoothly. Clutch works well. Hubs lock & unlock, 4 wheel drive high & low work.
Suspension & steering drive well. Brakes & parking brake are functional. Tires should be replaced.

Lots of pictures here:

$12,000 firm. Could easily be a reliable daily driver or solid start to a Luber or resto-mod.

Damn that cleaned up nice!

[Gunnibronco]

It's super fun to drive too. 4.10s & stock tires are a blast.

Sale possibly pending. Wow.

Man that sure looks good! Just wish it was an auto and I'd be all over it.
Best of luck on the sale!

I hope to post up more info tomorrow.

Sold. Loaded & hauled off today. Went to Velocity Restorations in Pensacola, FL. I suppose I'd have rather it gone to an enthusiast. But they offered full price 10 minutes after listing it on Early Bronco Drivers on Facebook.

[akaFrankCastle]

Wow. That was fast. Congrats!

[Entourage]

That is great news that you got what you wanted outta that Bronco.

[Jesus_man]

Congrats!! That'll go a long way to fund your current projects!!

It all went better than I ever could have expected. And thanks to all who lent me advice on the market value of the truck.

It was such a sweet truck. I really liked driving it around town, and loved the 3 on the tree. That is motivation for me to get the 66 running and driving, hopefully this weekend.

I'm a huge fan of the three-on-the-tree. When I swapped mine to the NP435 in my '74, it lost some of the fun!

Congrats! I knew this one wasn't going to last long :)

Its for sale again. The Colorado DOW sticker is still in the corner of the window in a few pics.

Damn. That's one helluva price tag.

Damn. That's one helluva price tag.

Well, it has been restored.

[akaFrankCastle]

Fact.

They must have had a team of personnel working on it around the clock to do a complete restoration in such a short time.

[Gunnibronco]

They seem to have it down to a science.

I'm just surprised the market supports this. But there must be enough guys ready to drop $50-$60K on an old truck, really, with little upgraded. No pics of a driveline, but it lists 302/C4. So $70K doesn't buy a Coyote, exotic suspension, maybe not even EFI.

I just saw one of Velocity's employees post up pics of a freshly painted frame & chassis. Someone asked what it was painted with, and the employee's response was "single stage urethane". About as simple & cheap as it gets. Totally adequate, and what I'll do to my 66 & my Plymouth. But nothing special.

Boggles the mind.

[Gunnibronco]

Well, it has been restored.

For clarity, I should have added a "/sarc" to the above post. It's been 'redone' and its a 'resto-mod luber', but to me it's not 'restored'. I chuckle every time I read "restored" and "Luber" in the same title.

I'll take the up over the "down" [emoji3]

Huh, It only takes "Chip" and his crew 7 days so these guys must be slackers!
Must not have been working on the weekends!

Stop the insanity!
