When you go to dinner, do you make reservations under the name 'Insane'?

No sir, you do not under any circumstances sell your 74. keep it, treat it like the classic that it is.

Sheesh...you probably put honey on pancakes instead of syrup, ya damn savage. ;-)

NO WAY!!!
I have driven the 74 since I retired 2 years ago. I see crazy prices and I got to say Im tempted . Mines no beauty Queen but I have done a LOT of work on it and would drive it anywhere. Only down side no AC

Kind of like when my wife asks if she should sell a stock in her portfolio that’s done well.

Do you need the money or have a better plan for that money?

A 74 Bronco seems like a good place to park some cash, to me.

If you were 71 you might have a little different perspective on things. I also have a 2004 Sonic Blue Lightning and a 29 Tudor.

Don't need the money paid cash for my 21.

When can i pick it up! if they are both paid off the 74 owes you nothing would make a great extreme offroader saving the 21 for mall duty.

I say don't sell. Maybe sell that 2021 Explorer? It seems that would compete with the new OBX for driving time.

Right now you have quite the range of Fords in your collection. I like that.

She's a beauty. Love the green color, perfectly complements the minimal rust.

I would be torn, but I'm 63 and just sold my house for more than I could ever imagine. You are looking at a peak market time for Broncos of any age. I would probably bank the money given the same opportunity, and miss it terribly as I do my '79. What a beast. I banked on the Covid real estate bulge and can now pay cash for my Bronco. Taking a tour around the country as well before moving on to new job. Once all us old farts are gone, the classic car market is going to take a dive as today's 24 to 36 crowd just doesn't want them.

I would not sell it. I've always wanted a Bronco and a Scout. Now that I have the G6, I'm setting my sights on finding a Scout in the next yr.
