Gary Lewis Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I don't see the fire damage. I would think it is well worth the asking price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than that I agree, not much fire damage. Although in person it may be worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once borrowed a trailer and was told it needed some wiring. Then I discovered it had been in a fire and had no wiring. Not for the lights nor the brakes, some of which had never worked. But the bulk of the damage was underneath on the trailer due to it being in a grass fire, so it may be on the Bronco as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a good point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salans7 Posted May 16, 2022 Share Posted May 16, 2022 That’s a good point. The amber marker is melted, as are the two center trim pieces on the bumper, the park light, and even the driver's side headlight bezel shows signs of melting. Maybe coincidental, maybe related but the interior trim for the top is pretty warped as well. I agree with Gary, there's probably some damage underneath too.

You would be surprised. A friend was building a cabin and one of the big forest fires last year took it out. He was showing pictures and there was this molten trail of aluminum that used to be his ATV. Not 15 feet away was a tarp that wasn’t melted. Similar to tornadoes taking houses out but leaving one standing amidst the debris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
