Possible Bronco 2 Purchase

I am thinking about getting this and am looking at it later tonight. I called the guy and he said it has no rust and the 2.9 withe 105,000 miles but he said it's still mechanically sound no leaks etc., but the price seems a little steep for a 2wd.

Anyones thoughts/oppinions would be appreciated.

Heres the link: http://http://tampa.craigslist.org/car/624498329.html

Looks decent, but talk him down to somewhere around $1100. Blue books I don't believe is that high though....rare or not.

Rare does not mean it is worth more money or that it is more desirable. Never even heard of that trim/model, I think someone just made it up.


FWIW: Something about that truck looks funky. I think it has 14" Ranger wheels and a Ranger front clip.

KBB private party is $1045 in excellent condition, that is $500 more then it should be in excellent condition, $840 in good condition.

He kept trying to tell me they are worth alot of money and people "restore" them. He even showed me a 1985 B2 that he had that he had just payed 6k for a month ago! The clear coat was peeling on it, had a lot of miles and had just as much rust as the one he was trying to sell me. The only good thing I could see about the other one that might make it worth more is that it had 4x4. But that definatly wouldn't make it worth 6 grand. I'm glad I didnt buy his "rare sundowner".
