I recently sold my car and my Bronco is currently in the garage for a lung transplant and have been looking around for something unique and fun to take up daily driving duties for a while - i have a new job and its about 1.5 miles away so don't really care about MPG or too many comforts but a heater would be a must. Another must is size.. i need to keep this less than a fullsize pickup in size. The smaller the better but would love to have a pickup bed or the ability to haul crap in.
I am not sure what exactly I am looking for but something cool, unique, fun and most importantly cheap.
Definitely do not want a project, or at least a project for now and it must have a working heater.
I have been concentrating on $3000 or less but depending on the uniqueness and fun factor i might go just a little higher. I would love to stay around $2000 if possible and no emissions so that means pre 75 or if its after 76 at least something easy to pass emissions.. - EFI vehicle etc.
I have been actively searching for the following - and keeping it Ford for now :)
Pre 1975 Ford Courier
1960's Ford Econoline - either the pickup or short van (windows and bench seats would be great)
1966 Ford f100 4x4 shortbed - willing to go a little higher in price for one of these.. but would rather have a non-show truck. And yes Gunni I did talk to the guy in Gunnison who's selling one.. but its a long bed :(
And of course.. i would love to get my hands on a uncut bronco half cab! but right now unless I found a
deal from a person I would be lucky to touch one for under 8K...do you know what they look like? :)
I have also looked at high mileage Ford Ranger 4x4's.. but honestly they are not that interesting or unique.. but they are practical and cheap...
If you have a suggestion or some leads on something cool and fun let me know, like i said I'm open to practically anything.
