Full sized bronco
any of you guys ever have a full sized bronco?I looked at one a few months ago,but it was rusted beyond fixing.theres a few around but pricey and I'm not totally sure what year I want to go with.my ideal would be a 78/79 but those are even harder to find around here that aren't rotted to death.

I have noticed the slight over pricing of them.I guy about 400 kms from me had the one that was rotten beyond fixing,he told me it came from alberta and only had some light surface rust on it.my brother in law grabbed the ps quarter panel and took most of it of with his hands.I was less then impressed.I did find one in maryland in the classifieds on here,decent price and in pretty good shape,and a good price.just the 1000 mile trip to get it.I will probably wait till the spring when I get my current 4x4 cleaned up,painted and sold,I best not say what it is in fear of being disowned lol.

I saw a few on kijiji in bc,but the states is closer to me so it will probably be easier for me to get one down there,hard to say,I don't mind doing minor sheetmetal work on one as long as the floor and frame were good.but I would rather find something that was fairly rust free.the guy with the bronco in maryland sent me lots of really good pictures of the truck all around and its solid for 2500.its an xlt,real decent looking horse.

you know what one of them old things would be like after sitting,first it would be a wheel cylender,then a stuck caliper,then probably a wheel bearing gone on the highway
usually how things go,but my father and I have a good goose neck trailer and a truck to pull it with so that will probably what I would do.I wouldn't drive an old rig like that too far until I got to give a good once over.

well odds are that it would probably be fine,but why chance it.I'm not set on buying that one,but its the best I've seen so far for the money.I friend of mine has a 95 full sized one but he doesn't know what he's doing with it yet.so I may get a good deal on that,who knows.can't get a straight answer from the guy.
