1985 ford bronco - $6,000 (Redmond/OR)

Out of my price range. Doesn't say what work has been done, could be nice for someone to finish off.

I like it, and if it was close to me I might try to talk him down a bit.

But it is green and has a blue interior? And no pics of the engine, or even info about it?

This post was updated on .

Maybe the blue/green is due to lighting conditions.

If it was $3k it would be parked in my driveway already. My wife did acknowledge that too :)

But for 6k I could get all my existing vehicles in tip-top shape!

Maybe. The pics do appear to have been taken close to sundown, where you'd have reddish lighting. Perhaps the interior shots were taken with flash? Still, that's a big difference, and the writeup says it has a green exterior.

$6K is just the asking price.

lol! You and your peer pressure!

I have made it a favorite so I will keep an eye on it. I suspect someone will snap it up. There appears to be a lot of money around here these days. The only thing going against it is the recovery from Covid. People are back at work and may have less time for such a hobby.

There is a place in town that has been flipping older vehicles. This would be a good fit for them. Clean it up, service it and market it on their lot for 12k..

Honestly, I am about to drop some money on my Bronco... steering box, tires, transmission, rear axle... If I was to buy this one I couldn't afford to do any of that other stuff. Which my wife is aware of and probably thankful for!

It seems like a lot of people with money are moving to Central OR too. I know of a few yuppies and retired folk from here in California settling in Bend. I'd go there too if there was work, I love driving up and down US 97
