I found a 72 bronco with a 302, manual transmission, uncut fenders, dana 44, 9" rear, no rust and faded original paint! I live in the northwest! What should i pay for it?

Hi NW.., welcome..!

Wellllll., there's about 15 other things to consider besides the "stock" items you mentioned.

$1000 to $10,000 depending on the condition(s)

A sale is done when the seller thinks he's "cut a fat hog" / & the buyer thinks he's stole the thing..... >

I guess what I need to know is what I should look for and what questions to ask? I have been wheelin and dealin on this thing for awhile and the final result is $2500! Should I pull the trigger before somebody else does?

If it runs pretty well., it's clean or cleanable., trannie shifts OK., the transfer case shifts & the 4WD works., the dash is in tact & the wiring looks pretty good., some or all gages work., no major oil or water leaks., no mickey-mice doo-dads/add-ons...., then.......

That's a heck of a deal in your favor...!!!!!

Do understand, the very best stock 66-77 EB out there is going to cost a minimum of 2-4K to get it like you want it. ('cause that's the fun of it) >< <'>
