Yeah...I'd believe it. No one in their right mind would put the money in an '87 Bronco to make it look like that again and KNOW they'd only get 1/3-1/2 of what they put into it. And that undercarriage looks the part to me...especially for the area. Only question I had was, in some of the quartering pics of the driver's side, I saw some waves...that's a sign of filler...so I'd wanna inspect that. Question I have though, is who buys a frickin vehicle and lets it sit...I feel all vehicles should be driven, but that's just me. If '87 was my favorite year, and I wanted a new vehicle, I'd try to scoop that thing up.

I noticed the waves too... I'd wanna know more before I belive it's not 107000...

The tires aren't original as Ford didn't put Kelly Springfield tires on aaaand there's a roof mount "whisker" antenna. That's what I see and I do believe it's the real deal...

Yeah, that truck is only 1 month older than my F150 (5/89 vs. 6/89). I really like the Gen8 trucks and this would be beastly. Maybe it was one of those scenarios where the husband bought a truck, drove it a little, then died. And the wife didnt want to drive it, or sell it, so it sat. So April 2009 the wife croaks and pristine Bronco is in the estate. That would be my guess.

$10,100 and there is still 2 something days left... He might get appreciated value on that truck.

The Bronco I REALLY wanted was on ebay last year. It was a Gen9 I think it was a 95 Bronco in pristine condition, midnight blue like my truck. It belonged to Rusty Wallace and was his DD for 60,000 miles and was personally autographed by Rusty himself. That wouldve been sick, Rusty is/was awesome (1989 Nascar Champion).

Which panel are you guys seeing waves on?

The passenger rocker/door bottom looked a little questionable to me, but I'm missing whatever it is on the driver's side...


I'll still buy the miles being legit, but I wanna know the story. The antenna on the roof suggests it wasn't bought with the intention of storing untouched. The shine and new tires suggest somebody has put some time and money into it since it was un-stored- things don't STAY that shiny no matter where you put them. Not saying it's not true...but I'd wanna hear more before I dropped much cash on it.

I just bought a '91 Bronco for $700.
It still has the Edie Bauer floor mats.
It still has the original spark plug wires.
It has the aluminum wheels with the 10 holes and fake rivets.

Rap, something don't look right to me and I believe it looks pretty nice
for 107k miles tho!

My "new" Bronco?
...needs some steering column parts, we moved it today by hand and I
steered it with vise grips LOL Towed it home Friday night.

Mechanic's title is in the works, see?

------------------------------

Looked at a '67 bump side.
Seller (storage yard owner) said 30k miles.
I swear, inside that sucker, it looks like 30k too!
Original red carpet and the upholstery etc looks like new.
But found a registration slip showing "B" ...went around once.
He was asking $900 dropped to $700.
It's kinda rusty underneath and so I won't touch the sucker. YMMV
No bed, a built-on huge ass cab over camper on it.
