1974 FORD BRONCO. I have owned her since 2010 and have over $60,000 invested!!! She came to me almost completely stock and I just decided to build it the way I wanted it, at whatever cost.  Since then I have done so much to it, there is almost too much to list. 

I have done a personal youtube video for you to be able to watch her start and run and see some of her features first-hand, because pictures and words don't do her justice.  Here is the link in case the video is not visible below.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtQjJ9RlsK0 My apologies since I am by no means a video producer.

 

I have both the stock hard top and also a Wild Horses Bestop Supertop with tinted windows to go with it.  The major changes and mods are listed below.  I have documentation and receipts for ALL of the new parts and work done for the new buyer to verify and have records of.

Ford dealer loses Super Bowl bet, pays $300K to lucky customers [w/video]

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

A Missouri Ford dealership's Super Bowl weekend sale cost it big when the improbable happened. Hutcheson Ford ran a promotion from January 29 to February 1, called the Super Weekend Sale. The gist was, if any customer purchased a vehicle between those dates and either the opening or second-half kickoff of the big game was returned for a touchdown, the dealership would refund the purchase price.
In the dealership's defense, it seemed like a safe bet. According to the mathematicians, there was just a 2.5-percent chance of either half opening with a touchdown return. But that didn't stop Seattle's Percy Harvin from doing his part to ruin Denver's evening, returning the second-half kick for an 87-yard touchdown run. Twelve Hutcheson customers were eligible for refunds thanks to the return, with prices ranging from $10,000 to $55,000, according to Automotive News. The total amount shelled out by the dealership? $300,000.
"At least we're not like that furniture guy that lost $7 million," dealership marketing manager Kathleen Frazier told AN. We think it was a big success." The dealership did take out insurance to cover its losses, meaning the $300K won't come entirely from its pockets.
