________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ You might have seen this auction up 7 days ago. Unfortunately for me, the highest bidder ended up being a young child out of Oklahoma City playing with Daddy's iPad and made his way onto his open eBay account ; ( Fortunately for you, the Bronco is now being re-listed in fairness to all the original true bidders, e-mailers and all the people that tried to 'buy it now' during the auction : ) We had over 3700 page views and 281 watchers. This time, the end of auction will not fall on a 3 day holiday weekend, it will be fair to all the interested parties and allow everybody plenty of time to see the Bronco and bid on it by end of day, Sunday. I hope all the youth are studying for school instead of playing with Daddy's iPad that night too : ) We really want the Bronco to go to a good home, someone looking for this style Bronco and idea of a cool project to restore or just upgrade to be a reliable driver with cool patina! Good luck with bidding and please feel free to ask any questions and or request any pictures. 1969 FORD BRONCO - light surface rust on top of fenders, hood, hard top, nothing cancerous, see pics - light rust in the common left n right of inner fender within engine bay, see pics - floors have light / medium surface rust, drivers side small holes only at seam, passenger side no holes and original owner drilled a few tiny holes to prevent standing water, see pics - tailgate light rust on lower edges and slight perforation spots , see pics - original owner slid into a wood fence post on drivers side door along time ago so there is spot fix discoloration on door and trailing lower quarter, see pictures - there is a ding, dent or bend on all 4 wheel well openings, see pictures - Dash pad sun aged - Dash panel original but has a switch hole drilled and some tape residue stuck on dash - Down on the oil pan the dipstick retainer point leaks - Rear bumper has hitch holes drilled in it - Original owner installed aftermarket box heater and drilled a larger hole on floor behind driver seat to route heater tubes, see foil tape on floor in pic behind drivers seat - Rear tank filler neck hose drips just when filling fuel - Both gas gauges do not register - We only use aux tank, rear tank has older gas in it - Brakes, wheel bearings and u-joints should be replaced dues to noise but all work - door seals are intact but old - rear and drivers side seat belts are missing - carburetor and intake manifold were replaced with a 4 barrel set up - Column shift sticks between 1st and Reverse, all transmission gears shift fine but gets stuck so you manually have to go under hood to put it in reverse or 1st, included a good used column for replacement, common problem with the aged 3 speed column shift. - Uncut 1969 Ford Bronco built on June 25th, 1969 at the Michigan Ford plant then originally sold out of Marysville, California on August 30th, 1969. - Original California Bronco - 95% original paint - color code 7 = Harbor Blue - Original Black and Yellow California plates - Original radio - 302 engine / runs good, does have initial lifter noise when first starts but goes away after oil circulates - Dana 30 / 3.50 limited slip front axle - Ford 9" / 3.50 limited slip rear axle - Dana 20 Transfer case / shifts fine through all Hi & Lo gears - Stock 3 speed manual transmission - Farm latch mounted spare tire - Doors open and close very nice - Tailgate opens and closes squarely and nice - Seats are in pretty good condition for being the age they are - Wipers, Heater blower, defrost and Horn all work - Still has original exhaust system with one muffler replacement - We have the original air cleaner along with what we think is the original intake manifold and 2 bbl carburetor that all come with the Bronco Our view of what we are selling, a nice example of an original California Bronco. Does show signs of age but she is all there. Mileage reads 69,406 and unsure if that is the original mileage? could be with original paint and the original exhaust pipes but also could of made it there with 169K mileage? Good platform to start a restoration, especially with the cool uncommon color code 7, you don't see a lot of original Harbor Blue Bronco's. We were told the front hub assembly was incomplete and we never opened them up. The outer hub tube has a chip on it. With the sale, we will include a box of stock parts that the original owner kept with the Bronco along with a few items that we acquired; 2bbl intake manifold / 2bbl carburetor / n.o.s. 4WD selector knobs / hub parts / 3 speed steering column / misc items We bought this Bronco because of its nice original patina with all the original body parts that function nicely. We had plans to either restore it or keep it 'as is' with some mechanical repairs then drive it with its natural patina. Baby Lucas is on the way so we are selling. I thought 24 pictures was a lot until I started to upload all the pics and realized I had to narrow them down from all the pictures I took to best describe the Bronco. please feel free to ask any questions and or request any pictures and I can send any you wish to see? Hope the Bronco goes to a good home : ) On Jul-14-16 at 15:11:36 PDT, seller added the following information: Sorry to all the true and real bidders. I've had a handful of emails asking why there have been some bid retractions. They are not retractions, they are cancellations that I personally did. I have had to cancell 4 bidders already that ebay has detected as fraudulent or scam. Scores with less than 10 will be deleted by me and low scores will be scanned and approved through ebay before end of auction. I have been victim to fraudualent bids in the past 2 weeks so they are taking a look at these scammers in detail. I'm trying to sell the Bronco, get it into the deserving hands of someone who is seeking it but the gauntlet of scammers out there is making it tougher every day.
