So any iodeas what would be a good market value or starting point on price

Like Zilla said, not near as much as you would like to think. 5 Years ago, I would have pushed that # to the 12-14k range, but with the economy, blah, blah, etc. and so forth, 10k would be a lucky offer to ya. If we were in southern California, I would say 10+ easy because everything out there goes for a premium. Sorry, but it (or anyone's for that matter) just ain't worth what they were just a couple of years ago.

While you guys have good points...I tend not to agree with "the horrible economy". That statement is way over used and perpetuated by the media. Truth is, people still have $ and those that want Broncos are buying the good ones. Yours looks like it's in great shape. Is the engine rebuilt or just new accessories etc? If rebuilt, I'd push it past $10K and see how it goes. Listing it for $8K will get you a bunch of tire-kickers and low-ballers.

But like Dan says......if you wait until spring, early summer.....much better chance of getting more $ for it.

motor is unknown as far as mileage or rebuild but runs really well.

kinda ball park of where i was hoping(about 9k invested) if it comes down to getting rid of it then I might pull some of the high dollar stuff and sell independently IE: seats, winch etc and then go from there.
just ideas floating in my head, nothing serious yet.

It's hard to tell from the one interior pic...but it looks like the carpet might be in rough condition?.....like the portion that's over the tunnel cover? Buyers like things to look nice...regardless of mechanical function.....replacing some of the visual stuff like carpet would really increase the value and chances of selling.

its not carpet its a bedliner material, and yes I have thought of the carpet for sure... time will tell what i do with it. but yes a carpet kit would really make it shine just that little bit more

Based on this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1969-For ... 3a6af7bc8a

I'd say about $47k
