Prolly not, lol but that is a great looking bronco. too bad they didn't mention stick or auto.

And really I could say that my truck belonged to Steve Mcqueens stunt driver, who would know if it was true or not.

That was put in the ad to make it sound like it should be considered something special. Let me tell you that stunt drivers know less about cars and trucks than most accountants or CEO's. They know how to drive them to make them do what the director of photography wants when he/she films the maneuvers. Beyond that, they rely on the real mechanics to make them run right and do what they need to.

If anything, that information would scare me away from it. A stunt driver knows how to wreck a car... but fixing it... yeah not so much. Now if it had belonged to the lead mechanic for a show with something OTHER than a bunch of old Dodge and Chrysler products as the "stars", I might take a closer look.
