ArdWrknTrk Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 And a tach.! Looks good. Tach cluster is always desirable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Things I can see.(I obviously mis remembered the paint colors lol I think the top threw me off) Power windows Power locks Lower exterior trim Cruise control AC Rosewood door panels The floor is bare, so any rust issues would more visible. Running Boards Upgraded bumpers Paint looks pretty good interior is a bit chalky, needs some work but is doable. If you really like the tu-tone (I do!) you could always paint between the body mouldings like Shauns old truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny G Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Tach cluster is always desirable! Wow didn’t even catch that a tach cluster too. I have been talking to him all evening. Due to banks being closed for the weekend I am going to see if I can get Tuesday off and go up there and get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kramttocs Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Tach cluster is always desirable! For sure. We had a brief discussion yesterday about what things our eyes gravitate to on these trucks so struck me as funny when Dane spotted the tach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny G Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 For sure.

Danny G Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Mine is always the lower molding and bumpers on the outside. Looks like it is probably a tilt column too. So we have: Exterior moldings Upgraded bumpers Power windows Power locks 4x4 4speed manual 9in rear 351w HO Rosewood interior Tach cluster Tilt column Running boards Cruise control Ac Chrome accents Internal spare? Back seat is still there Potentially little to no rust issues the truck is a Georgia/SC truck. No visible exterior damage Free check of the VIN doesn't flag any accidents. Owner wants to remain in contact during restoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner wants to remain in contact during restoration. The transmission is the New Process 435. The shift sticks on the New Process trucks were curvy while the sticks on Borg Warner trucks were just angled. I would assume that the t-case is a New Process 208, but I've seen mix-match before. Looks like a clean Bronco! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a clean Bronco! Yea sounds like a NP435 from talking to him just now. 1st is granny. The frame and body are completely straight per the owner. No dent dings or issues with the exception of a half dollar or so sized bit of rust on the fender well that does not go all the way through. Tailgate is solid and functions. AC belt has been disconnected as I expected, was probably seized. He got it that way. Original carb, filter lines and connections under the hood are all there and untouched. No rust in floors or rockers to report. Good call on the brakes. He says the rubber on the rear brakes split and is currently clamped off on the one side. He drove it from Charleston that way so it should make it back. It is mostly back roads and county highways between there and here. I think the only thing so far that could make this better is to pop the hood and find some bonus items like lights, tool boxes or aux batteries lol.

Owner informed me he lost the title so I had to make sure it was clean. NICB shows it is not stolen and NMVTIS shows no junk, no salvage, no flood, no title issues, and no accidents. Got a wad of cash in hand, think ill offer him $5200 and see if he will take it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
