Equipment
170/90hp six, automatic, white wheels, Radial A/W tires, Pioneer CD stereo, black fiberglass fender flares, locking front hubs, folding windshield.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
Sound paint with orange peel of varying severity. Good upholstery. Most chrome is good. The chassis, however, is old and dirty. A usable driver treated to an unsatisfying truck-quality restoration.
Market commentary
The consignor should face the fact that the "new Bronco" craze has passed and a superficially cosmetically restored example like this, even if it looks okay at 20'' is no longer sought by collectors, or anyone else for that matter. The reported high bid here should have been more than sufficient to separate it from the owner and to get anywhere close to the pre-sale estimate the body needs to be repainted by a competent shop and lifted off the frame that needs comprehensive stripping and rebuilding. This is a disappointing cosmetic restoration to superficial truck standards and it deserved to be shunned at Greenwich.
