1973 Ford Bronco Sport 4x4, Home Restoration In 08/09, 302 V8, 4spd on 2040-cars

Up for Auction is a 1973 Ford Bronco I am selling for my Uncle who now resides in Florida. The Bronco belonged to his brother who sadly passed away last fall. The Bronco was purchased by him in 2008 and restored by him in the winter of 08/09. It shows 73717 on the odometer, which is currently working and I would believe to be accurate original mileage, however I can make no guarantees as we unfortunately don't have that information. I am posting this add with the information that I have found in receipts and by looking the vehicle over in my shop. I have found receipts for oil pump, water pump, cam & lifters, valve job, ect so I believe that the 302ci v8 was rebuilt in the summer of 2009. I have also found receipts for body panels, floor pans, paint and labor in the winter of 08/09. It would appear to me that after purchase in 2008 the Bronco underwent a complete home garage restoration. It has a James Duff multi shock suspension lift with 33X14.50R15LT tires tucked under it. Along with a James Duff steering stabilizer, rebuilt power steering pump and gear box. It appears the axles were rebuilt and that ARB air lockers were installed at that time along with warn locking front hubs. The bronco has a 4spd manual transmission and a 2spd transfer case for 4wd mode. The interior has front bucket leather seats with a locking Tuffy center console and glove box. AM/FM cassette stereo with 6x9 speakers in boxes along with a Clarion Amp and a subwoofer in the rear. The bronco does not have any rear seating at this time. It does have a roll bar with multiple grab handles. The top is removable and it does have a Bestop Bikini Top that comes with it. The bronco has dual fuel tanks and they appear to switch as they should. The truck has numerous add-ons that I can see, too many to list even though I found receipts for most so that I could. I however recommend if you are interested that you come and see it in person as I said I do not know alot about the vehicle and we have no one to inquire with, so I also ask that you inspect it and be sure that you know what is there as I said I am going by receipts and what little knowledge we have of the vehicle. I know that after it was restored it has seen very little mileage and had been sitting in garage for years. The bronco was removed from the garage in the spring and transported to Turner Automotive in Victor, N.Y. where it was gone through in order to sell there on consignment. I picked it up from them recently as it did not sell. I flat hauled it to my residence and then drove it approximately 2 miles to be sure it ran, drove and stopped as it should. Everything appears to work as it should on test drive. I did observe a small coolant leak where water pump mounts and a oil pan gasket leak which I cleaned and tightened, may need new gaskets, I believe the gaskets dried out while sitting for an extended period. The truck is in nice shape and had a good home shop restoration, with that said it is not showroom perfect. I again ask that you inspected it before bidding as I make no guarantees on the vehicle or its condition. I want you the buyer to be happy with it and not to go by my description. I do have a clear New York State Title for the vehicle and can provide a sales tax form or receipt from the estate. Shipping is the responsibilty of the buyer. I will require a non-refundable$500.00 deposit via paypal and require the rest in cash or certified bank check upon pick-up. I also reserve the right to end this auction as I do have the vehicle for sale locally. If you have any further questions or wish to make an appointment to view this vehicle you can reach me at 585-281-5416 by text or call.
