PO told me he thought it was probably original.I was withdrawing cash today and discussing Broncos with the teller. He told me there was 1 year of Broncos made with a tube frame, and it was awesome for rock crawling. I'm going to keep my eyes out for one. I have A LOT to learn about Broncos.
This truck turns out to be somewhat rare. 72 was the first year of the Explorer Sport option. Interior was specific to that year & Explorer Sports. Should have come with parchment floor mat, I think. Most were Durango Tan or Ginger Poly, all with the same interior. There seems to be some disagreement on colors available. I forgot to look at the color code when I was there.
It has a ranch hand spare tire carrier, but missing the body side mount (PO said it was always missing). So if anyone has one, I'm looking. I sent one to Pensacola, FL, a couple months ago, lol. Back seat is in good shape, wasn't in the truck, mostly stored. He's looking for the horn ring, he might have (please, please, please).
Typical rust, floors, rockers, lower door posts, inner fenders. Some dents & dings, but mostly complete. Original owners manual & even found a "OK" inspection stamp on the driver's a-pillar. Very unmolested.
It's a P truck, if you follow Viper's thread. 04/72 production date on the b-pillar sticker. I'm not entirely sure of what he's getting after with the whole Ps & Qs things. The thread is hard to follow, all 23 pages of it. Hopefully he can chime in.
