  • Looky what I found today!

    OMG! I was driving down the road today saw this parked in a guys driveway. About caused an accident slamming on the brakes and flipping a u-turn. I walked up to this old guy working in the garage and introduced myself. Come to find out, he is the original owner!!! 1967 all stock. ZERO rust, uncut and always garaged sense he bought it in 1967 at the local Ford dealership here in town!! Unbelievable! Never been wrecked, the only time he drives it is to go hunting a couple of times a year. I was too busy drooling and forgot to look at the speedo to see how many miles are on it, but I bet it's not very many. I gave him my card and told him IF you ever want to sell it, please give me a call. He said not quite yet, but who knows how much longer I'll be able to drive. WOW, what a piece of Ford history.

          Too bad he wasn't in the garage drawing up the "for sale" sign for it! I would've said your timing is impecable, now you're just left-a-wantin'... LOL! Killer find and I agree with POPS!...

            That would be nice if he only wants what he paid for it.

                  Hate to say it. BUT, my dad and I left a card on that very bronco about five years ago too. I told him that if he ever is approached by a tall man named Patrick to very leary and to remember the agreement we've made. We were generous and said we would pay exactly what he paid in 67. You have to remember the depreciation of any vehicle thats been driven off the lot.

                    Like Pops said, steal it, but then cut it, rattle can it, throw away the top and put big tires on it. That way he will never recognize it.

                        Nope, he said he's had quite a few offers over the years. Timing is everything on things like this.

                        I think he would hunt me down and kill me. Or haunt me for the rest of my life. LOL.

                              Just think how much time and money it would take to swap the axes, lift/link, engine swaps, and all that other junk. Haha
