1975 Ford Bronco 302

Description

First of all I have to explain the negative feedback just left to me by a classic car competitor. This guy was high bidder on a 1972 Dodge Demon I listed for sale two weeks ago. This person was high bidder, but without even contacting me or coming to see the car in person, he left me negative feedback. I left him 2 phone messages after the auction with no call back.He has been known to do this to his competitors. I promise I always describe my classic cars as best as I can. I won't even make you pay if my cars are not as I say. I don't need the money. I just do this because I like old vehicles. I would never cheat anyone. So I have filedacomplaint with Ebay about this Ebay user, and expect the negative feedback to be removed. You can call me any time at 567-295-9060 (You can call me too, Tom). It would be nice to finally hear from you. Now I have to say thank you for reading all that, and putting up with it. I have only sold two other cars on Ebay over the last year, so Tom caused me to have 50% feedback rating. I've had 100% feedback for many years. I'm sorry, I am just so frustrated with this person. Now for my vehicle. I will describe it exactly as it is. This1975 Ford Bronco is a TRUE barn find. It was parked in a barn 10 years ago after the original owner passed away. His sister had power of attorney, so she had to put the title in her name. She contacted me about buying it. It was still in the barn where it sat for 10 years. It was covered in bird crap, the tires were all flat, and it hadn't been started in 10 years. I ran it through the car wash3 times on my way home with it on my trailer. All I did was changed the oil, drained the gas tank,added anti freeze, and bought a new battery for it. With just a little coaxing it started right up. I then bought and installed new spark plugs, and now it runs fine. It has 79,558 miles on it. But when the original owners sister went in for a new title in her name, she just guessed on the mileage (this is what she told me), so she had 90,000 put on the title. Please put up with me here becauseI'm divulging everything here so I have no more problems. This is without a doubt the original 302 engine. The only thing it needs is the drivers side exhaust manifold gasket. I hope to get that fixed too. If not, I'll pay for that too.It has a 3 speed manual transmission. The 4 wheel drive works good. This truck has lock out front hubs, so you have to get out and lock them in. The frame and underside is solid, but needs sandblasted to clean all the crud and rust off. The body has plenty of rust, as I've tried to show. There is not a dent anywhere. It is without a doubt all original. All the glass is good, and all doors open and shut tight. There are no brake fluid leaks. I just need to have all brakes bled. The master cylinder was empty when I got it. It's been filled up but the pedal still goes to the floor. So it should be fixed before the end of auction. If not, we'll refund $200 so you can do it yourself. This is a very solid Bronco, but the body rust needs attention if you want it to look better. Once the brakes are fixed, it can be driven the way it is. I'll let you Bronco experts decide. The interior is all original too. It's not too bad inside, and nothing is missing, but the floor behind the seats has rust also. The dash is all original. Drivers seat has a rip where you sit. This Bronco has no P.S. or P.B.s I've only driven it around the block a couple times to make sure everything works. It appears all the gauges work. The clutch chatters on take off from 1st gear, but I'm sure it's because it sat so long the clutch probably has rust on it. This is NOT a restored vehicle. It has a good 302 engine and decent interior. The tires are old and will need replaced. One has a slow leak, the others stay up. PLEASE do NOT bid unless you plan to pay. I have tried to describe it as well as possible. These are getting very rare, and very expensive once restored. I see them listed elsewhere for $30,000 to $40,000 I have no reserve on this one. I am sure you collectors know what it's worth. I can arrange shipping anywhere the United States. I have several shippers I use, and will work for you to find the best price. As for payment, I DO NOT use Paypal for vehicle payments. I prefer a bank to bank wire transfer, certified bank check, or if you have a better method, we'll work it out. I'm very easy to work with, and will help you any way I can. If you are paying with cash, you must pick the truck up within 3 days of end of auction. If it will be longer, I'll need $500 deposit within 3 days. I can hold it for 2 weeks, but it must be paid in full first. Please email or call with any questions. Make me an offer if you really want it now. I'm in western Ohio, just off I-75 Thank you for putting up with my long ad. And thanks for ignoring the knucklehead who left me the negative. I just remembered it has the original owners manual with some documentation, and even has the original jack. God Bless, Rich
