I had a 75 Bronco that I sold 12 or 13 years ago and I've hated myself every time I thought about it since then. It was so we could pay off bills and get in a better financial situation situation. The plan when I sold mine was to buy another one a few years down the road, but then they announced the Bronco was coming back, which threw cold water on those plans.

I was going to wait until my 21 was paid off next year before I started looking for another EB again but I ran across this 73 on FB Marketplace and the price was so ridiculous I couldn't say no!

I need to get a pic of them side by side. Both are on 37s.

I have a lot of hard/fun work ahead.

Def been around here for a while... I fixed the thread title a bit.

I've owned 4 of the 6gs, all but 3g and 5g. I've had quite the collection of Broncos over the years (can't find a pic of my 2g right now, the body was way far gone and I used it for a solid axle swap on my 91).

And yes, I have always, always played in the dirt.

That looks like a great project starting point, someone else has already done a lot.
I’m won’t ask but I do wonder what is considered a “ridiculous low” price with the outrageous prices I see people asking.
I'm much happy in my Everglades than I would be back in any early Bronco at today’s prices.

I'm going to give you the rundown of what all came with it, then I'm gonna tell you the price, then it's gonna blow your f'n mind...

It came with custom width high pinion dana 44s with lockers front and rear, all brand new. Disc brake kits front and rear all brand new in the box. Came with brand new 37" Cooper Discoverer STT tires with brand new steel wheels. Came with brand new suspension seats. Came with the stock 302 AND an additional built 302 short block with forged pistons fresh from the machine shop. Came with brand new aluminum heads in the box. Can with a full custom roll cage including seperate engine bay roll cage. Came with a brand new fully aluminum radiator and seperate trans cooler with it's own fan. Came converted to an AOD (overdrive) transmission. Came with the body fully tubbed to stuff the 37s. Came with a full truck load, absolutely full, of random new parts and all of the stock parts.

Are you ready?

Prepare yourself...

...

....

$13,500

ABSOLUTE steal of the century. Guy was liquidating all of his toys, sold a Jeep project, the Bronco, and his boat all in the same weekend. I'll put another $15k in restoring it and it'll be worth $80k all day.

From the single pic it looked like a lot of new was added, plus you got all the additional parts. I’ll agree that was a great price and a jump on it moment. Congrats on that find.

Is there a 1G, 2G, 6G Club?
I have a '71 I'll be working on and a 6G. So I'm interested in a "combo" club as well.

No "space" for other generations- but I love 'em all! I definitely acknowledge and own my chronic "bronchitis".

I'll gladly join that group. As one can see in my profile pic, I currently have a 76 (which needs to be updated because its currently down to the frame), 79( which has a little more done to it but looks like the profile pic) and a 22 base 2dr with 7MT.

Good morning all, just bought my 2dr 22 Big Bend last Tuesday, so I guess that now puts me in this group. I also have a 68 half cab
at home. Also have a 24 sport Heritage when the wife let's me drive hers.
