I built this truck to be my forever Bronco but it's time to move on and start another project. Hundreds of pictures are available to document the work on this truck and I think the parts and custom touches speak for themselves. I am not interested in trades or help selling this. I live 10 minutes from Dulles airport and I am willing to work with your shipper or transporter.
