Terry, a local friend of ours, is selling his 1970 Ford Bronco.
Terry has owned this Bronco for approximately 30 years and is looking for someone who can really appreciate it. As you can imagine he is having a difficult time letting this truck go, but perhaps the right buyer can convince him otherwise.

At the moment Terry does not have a forum account and is unable to reply to any questions here. Please call him even just to ask very basic questions, he is a very nice, polite guy; easy to talk with. From what I've gathered in talking with Terry, he would like to get it running again but doesn't have the time anymore. Having owned it for so long, he appreciates it too much for it to continue to sit when there might be someone out there who knows what it's worth and can keep it in service for many years to come. Because he is struggling to find motivation for it, he'd be happy to find someone who can.
I don't have any other info on the truck other than the above from Terry. I have not seen the truck myself but it is here in town and he'd be happy to show you it, just give him a call. Here come some pics!
