Yeah that makes sense if they didn't correct the angle of the driveshaft at the differential. Ima call the guy tomorrow and ask how much he wants for it. And I was looking at those vans before too, it really blows my mind how much crazy stuff they created

Hey man, If you are really interested in one of these there is a place not far from me that has a few for sale. I'm not sure if they are all Ford vans or not though.

As others have said, it clearly depends on the buyer. In general though, I'd say that one in a "preserved" state would be worth a significant premium, but one in a sorry state would be "salvage value". A custom-built vehicle that's rotting away is usually doing so at an accelerated pace - I'd guess this one falls into the category.

I love it Brad. Where are you when I have brain fades. Ha Ha

Centurion & Pathfinder both did tons of conversions on Fords. Centurion did a lot of pickup conversions or upgrades also.
Pathfinder did the 4x4 Ford vans conversions. Maybe other stuff not sure. I'm sure Brad will goggle it for me if needed. Ha Ha.
I love it Brad, you gave me a laugh today Thanks.

There's a guy with the name of Maverick or something similar that added another set of doors... I'll try to find a link to his thread... definitely a fun looking project.

The problem with Centurion, they HACKED the truck together. The roofs LOVE to rot right where the sectioned the bronco roof to the truck roof. The floor is not much better

[quote=akuhr93'f150;12948896]1990 ford four door bronco for parts

Check out this craigslist ad! Is this a custom job or did they really sell these? This blew my mind.

Here is the pic in case the ad gets deleted.

I bought this truck, the roof is all filler but I chipped it away and the cab is fine surprisingly. Although the rockers are gone the interior is intact, so I will be swapping the cab with a newer style roof from a 95' crew. Engine runs great when you disconnect the air cleaner, it was covered in dried mud.

NOICE!! When did you buy it? I tried contacting the guy but he wasn't responsive back when I made this thread. I let it go because the ad said he was parting it out and the guy didn't seem too interested in selling it.

I bought it in March he posted the add twice and said only one other person replied and told him he wanted it, went to drop it off and he never showed up. The day I called he said to come get it because he was about to cut it up and scrap it.

Wow that's really cool man. I'm a tad jealous. What do you plan on doing with it?
