Some guys are on drugs with what they want for their cars. A cobra fox would have to be original, less than 50k, one owner, clean-clean-clean, before it would be worth anywhere near 10g. I draw the line at 8500 if one is real nice. It would have to be sitting on some swanky suspension upgrades, well done modified or something to add the value. But...everyone finds different value in different things. I've had people tell me I paid too much for my '03 Cobra. Realistically I haven't seen one in Canada that compares for 4-6g more than I paid.
Who would have thought that a 56 Ford truck would ever sell for $365k...
I hope you find a gem Curtis.

Morning everyone. Time to tidy up the house a bit then having my family over for Easter supper. So my girlfriend decided last night she doesn't want a newer Explorer any more, now she wants a 92-96 Bronco because they are "bad ***" and convertible. Hopefully we can find one in good shape with a 351w

A Happy and a safe Easter to everyone here!
He`s a very wet rabbit today!
Same to you John, hope your weather is better than ours, it`s been snowing and that turned to rain today.
I hear you, I polished my 86 GT, looks so nice now but it`ll just sit in my shop till all of this wet stuff finally goes away!
Good news, my XL took second place in it`s class at the Draggins car show this weekend.
Did anyone get some pics at the Draggins Show? Morris??[/QUOTE]
Unfortunately I didn`t but a lot of folks did.
either one is nice Randy, your GF is a keeper!

Congrats on the 2nd place finish Morris! And yes my girlfriend is a keeper(that's why we've been together for almost 2 years and counting)
Curtis, that Bronco is pretty awesome. I'm wanting the 351 over the 460 so I can still tow with it and because I'm hoping or a little better fuel mileage, also my girlfriend doesn't need that much power either. I'm guessing with your 460, 5.13 gears and 39.5" tall tires you got like 1-3mpg lol? I think a 4" lift and 33s will look good, still go places off road, and wont suck too much fuel, I'm also gonna re-gear to match the tire size and transmission.
Decided to look in the states to find a Bronco and found this gem.
Bronco - 1994 Ford Bronco
I would really like it but that a far drive...

Morning Gents.

The 351's aren't really known for great milage. I know the 302's were pretty good and pumped out some decent power stock gear and upped tire size. (a few buddies have/had in the past) They won't get rid of them either. I wish I never sold mine. I never kept track of the milage on the ole girl but I could get to the city and back and one more time in on $20 bucks. I wish ya luck finding one. There great SUV's, very functionable.
Yes, they made them. They were called "Centurion's". There's one for sale out this way but only see it on the side of the hwy, no ads for it.

. Also, yes the 351s don't get great fuel mileage but they get better mileage than the 460s do. I might take a 302 if its in good shape, right colour and has everything I want. I want something that wont suck fuel as fast as I can fill the tank, but something I can still pull a trailer with if I need to. I'd like to find a properly done Centurion Bronco built on an F350 chassis with an efi 351w, that would be the perfect Bronco for meOh and Colin, I texted Curtis that he got your name wrong and he apologizes for the mess up

The Centurion Broncos (4 door Broncos) didn't come from the factory, they are built off crew cab truck frames.
