85 full size bronco

Ok... I've got an 85 bronco that I've been taking parts off of for my truck, it's a full size bronco, still has all the body, although it's pretty rusted around the bottom edges and wheel wells. The top has no damage to it. I've got a 9" rear end for it, full frame, missing front shock towers. the 9" is 2.47 gearing. 300 I6 engine, from what I know only thing wrong with the engine is the carb needs rebuilt. Problem is.. I need to get rid of it by this coming up Sunday, the 14th or I get a $2500 fine. So I'm giving it away, for whoever wants it. Need your own way to load it, etc. I'll help in any way I can. I just have to get rid of it. If you're interested please call me at 602-367-0763 (cell phone)

Oops, almost forgot. I'm located in Phoenix (Near 35th Ave. and Glendale) if I don't get a response soon enough I'm gonna have to cut it up to get it out in time, and I'd rather not waste a perfectly good frame, etc.

I bought it for parts from some guy in El Mirage. I never got the title. I pulled the rear and front axels off of it, some interior stuff, seats, etc. Gas tank. I have no pictures. That's why I was just gonna see if anyone wanted it for the rest of the parts. all the glass is good, etc. the top, frame etc. I'm puting my old 9" rear end on it right now, so I can lift the front, and roll it back out of my carport, LoL. Lemme know. but I gotta know soon..

welp... Any chance of getting a title for it? Also, will it roll? Does it have front and rear axles to I can move it onto a trailer and roll it around and out of the way?

I might be able to get that out of your hair by friday or so.. I hate Friday traffic though.

Well, it's got a rear axel.. I took the front shock tower off, so.. there's no front axel on it. Or available for it till I get the 2wd one off of my truck. So, it won't roll too well right now.. but I just got a 2 week extension, so.. I've got till the 29th

Oh, and as for the title, one could be aquired, just get an abandoned vehicle title. I had to do that with my current truck, because when my dad bought it 15 years ago, they never had the titled signed over to his name, and then he lost contact of the guy, and he lost his signed copy of the title.

Welp, my biggest thing is the vehicle being able to roll. If it can at least roll and steer (and stop of course) so I can move it in and out of the shop or where ever I'll come get it.

Even though another non-working vehicle is the LAST thing I need, its still fun to screw around.

I can probably do the switch of the front axels from my truck to the bronco's before the two weeks are up.. at which point it would be able to roll. But, there's no steering colum. It's in the front car port (That's why they're able to make me get rid of it, if it was in a garage there'd be no problem.. but we've ran outta room in the garage, LoL) It would be able to roll, and the wheels could be put into position to get it to back out and into the trailer, then off again. I had to move it around like that a few times to get room to work on it.
