Here's Why the Ford Bronco has Doubled in Value in 5 years.*1969 Ford Bronco Review*

[@1flashlite1]

That's a great deal! - update. I took your advice and purchased a 72. I love it!! Thank you.

[@ticker511]

I had a 66 back in 1970, it had the 170 cubic inch six cylinder with front and rear oil pumps, it took eight quarts of oil. It had three on the tree with high/low range transfer case. We did a lot of four wheeling in mud and snow up here in northern Minn. I put 750/16 bar lug Good Year tires on it. When the going got tough in clay or deep snow i put chains on all four. It had two inchs more clearance then a 3/4 ton Ford. I've owned a 59 3/4 ton 4x4 IH, 59 1/2 ton 4x4 GMC, 67 4x4 Jeep Wagoner, 70 1/2 ton 4x4 Chevy, 76 1/2 ton 4x4 Ford, 76 3/4 ton 4x4 Chevy, 68 4x4 IH Scout, 78 4x4 3/4 ton Ford, 93 1/2 ton 4x4 Ford, 05 4x4 Ford Escape, of all of these the Bronco was my favorite.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Holy crap you've had quite the collection. Thanks for watching. Alex

[@brianneal9204]

I love this video for 2 reasons. I'm from Chicago and I miss it. Your videos bring me home without having to travel. Secondly, the Chicago accent. I really miss that too. Tree on the tree. Reminds me of Pat Foley saying "Tree tirty tree in the tird" during the Blackhawks game.

[@LegitStreetCars]

BRI2K TV Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed the Chicago scenery. Thanks for watching. Alex

[@hjxbcf]

Doug the type of guy... wait wrong channel

[@grizzly9960]

LOL

[@NashvilleEarlyBronco]

Nice Bronco! I love those trucks. I have a 75. It's crazy how expensive they are becoming!

[@thesavior2398]

i also have a 75

[@ronaldjensen8614]

I should have kept my 71. Doh! The f150 crew doesn't have the nostalgia with it.

[@rubyred93chev]

_How did I even miss this video? Shoot, still catching up on _*_LegitStreetCars._*_ I learned to drive on my Dad's 1967 Ford F100 pick-up, and yup it had a three on the tree. Convertible fan right here Alex, great content for sure!_

[@ZubesImportAutoSales]

Customers just dropped off their '72 Bronco that I'll be selling real soon. Informative video, great job.

[@robertbrandywine]

I had a 1980 Jeep CJ5 that got caught in a rain storm with the top down. The foot wells had about 8 inches of water in them, but there are plastic drain plugs. I pulled them and it drained and there was no damage done. You can get one in nice condition for about $15,000.

[@hullinger]

Alex, nice review and that $22.5K really shows in the fantastic paint job. Clearly that truck was disassembled before painting. You know, these were made to compete with the International Scout which is really similar in size, features and design but the Scout came out several years earlier. I'll be curious to see your view count on this one as it's quite a departure from what you've done previously. Great video as always. - Chris

[@LegitStreetCars]

Thanks Chris. Ya this was a little different but honestly the channel is for fun so basically anything car related that interests me goes. Glad you enjoyed. Thanks Alex

[@351WINCHESTER]

That bronco brings back memories. I had two problems with them. Wheel hop in the front when the wheels were spinning & only a 3 speed tranny. Other than that they were stellar.

[@N1NTHWARD]

Alex, the eyes on the diff are a feature of "angry" Tweety, so you're not wrong. You could Google it, but it would be easier to find your nearest trailer park, and see women with tattoos-or at least a t-shirt-featuring this wholesome image.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Mikey Billek Oh man good to know. That's what I thought but then my wife pointed out that maybe it's the cat,haha. Thanks so much for watching. Alex

[@branon6565]

I love my 74 Bronco Sport, it's got a 347 stroker, truck 4spd, ARB locked Ford 9" rear and Dana 44 front w/4.88 gears, the same color scheme as a "50/50" bar (if you know what that is you're older than I am lol) and it's nothin but ultra reliable torque and horsepower...and it was given to me from my Dad for free...how friggin cool is that...

[@FireItUpGarage]

Just bought one. I think I need another..... We love our Broncos over at Fire It Up Garage! Thanks for sharing.

[@robertbeaty4909]

I had a 68 painted 1975 Ford Truck orange and Corvette white. Women and children loved it. I called it "Mud Puppy" and had a stuffed Odie hanging from the mirror. I miss that truck. :(

[@monalove3304]

Bought 1 last week. I would totally buy that one for low $20ks now too.

[@hotrod6919]

Ive wanted a early bronco since I was a kid! It was tough tryn to find one under 5k back in the 90's so i settled for a gto lol

[@HoodaThunket]

Those eyes on the rear axle belong to Marvin the Martian :)

[@CJColvin]

Beautiful classic Bronco man.

[@masterchicken23]

Can’t believe I haven’t seen you driving this on Devon

[@BroncoSolid]

Alex, why have I not found your channel before today? Gold mine!

[@LegitStreetCars]

Oh man I'm so glad you found it with this video. It didn't really get that much love but it was so much fun to make. Thanks for watching. Alex

[@BroncoSolid]

I have to admit, I was a little sad with some of the modifications that were done, like chopped windshield and missing windows, but overall a Bronco's a Bronco.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Yea he bought it that way. Overall its really cool and the price was great. He actually has a fuel injected 302 going in this summer. Considering its already modified I think thats pretty cool

[@atomizerplus2051]

Wow looks super clean!! Cool video

[@The1FastGP]

It should have it's exhaust upgraded since it has a 5.0 V8. I'm loving mine; '13 F150 STX 5.0V8. It sounds fantastic, and surely this Bronco will sound fantastic.

I also like the lines of early CUCV Chevys.

[@christophercaruso448]

Saw your E55 at the Motor Condo today and posted 2 pictures on Instagram.

[@michaelgiudice6474]

Yea I passed you today on I88 - driving my C55 AMG waved like an idiot and proceeded to explain to my wife for the next 20 mins that I like your car and videos, etc.

[@LegitStreetCars]

Oh cool. Love that place!!

[@LegitStreetCars]

Man I must have missed you. Did you end up going to Iron Gate? Alex

[@christophercaruso448]

Do you have a Instagram account ?

[@joewilder]

I'm going to guess the early Broncos are at the top of their market. They will probably track about with the early Mustangs.

[@DMX-PAT]

A restored Jeep Cj is typically around 10-20k, but a Bronco is typically 30-40k I'm in Canada so prices are a bit off...that being said it's basically double the price despite being exactly the same with regarding to the restoration work that I've seen for a good rest with basically a new motor and repaired/repainted body.

[@fataxe1]

I've never understood the omission of windows on 4x4s. It seems to increase the value which doesn't make a whole lot of sense...

[@N1NTHWARD]

Anthony Krieger: I couldn't stand it personally. What happens if they get into some mud, or choose to drive in any kind of incliment weather? I guess it's like taking the doors off your Jeep, since you get more connected to the outside. I get that, but at least they can put their doors back on.

[@MrGman636]

The owner should have just put on the U13 door inserts (a.k.a, do a roadster door delete)

[@saxdasion]

Nice vid, are you gonna buy one yourself then :)? Unfortunatly they were never solid in my country nor europe I think.

[@LegitStreetCars]

saxdasion I'd absolutely love to and my wife really like it as well. We shall see. I have 5 cars right now so it will tough but you never know. Thanks for watching. Alex

[@kenmello7252]

The post hole digger is a real thing, and you can find photos on line.

[@rhull3939]

Wild wood brakes. Um. Alex? Really?

[@houstonOLED]

Robert Hull yea I was surprised to hear him pronounce it like that. I googled it, and apparently it was a controversy for a while. I guess the founders name is William Wood...so that settles that controversy.

[@LegitStreetCars]

I've always said it that along with all my car friends over here. I had to Google it myself. Guess it's a Midwest thing? IDK, thanks for watching though. Alex

[@rhull3939]

LegitStreetCars the video was great. I was just taken by surprise with that. Have a good one.

[@MrGman636]

@@LegitStreetCars He lives right next to the Wildwood neightborhood of Chicago, and drove into it in this video I con't blame him for saying Wildwood when he's cruising in the neighborhood and near the Wildwood middle school (my old middle school) when talking about Wilwood brakes.

[@05Forenza]

$22.5k? Why? Granted, I'm not a truck guy but I would be more inclined to get a nice F series of the same era. Or an IH equivalent.

[@suhphilip]

Ha! Everyone does 70 mph on that stretch of Devon!

[@americanoutdoorsman6348]

Great to know now I'm gonna buy one lol

[@Victoria3232-j7o]

The Ford bronco is a Collectors item no matter what generation they are appreciating in value.

[@saigawesnovember]

I know this an older video but still, 22,500 is a very good price, I think I would still want operating windows.

[@auxientius]

"Barring any kind of recession or war" - 2022 here, woops.

[@grizzly9960]

You forgot to mention in the value that it also doesn't have working windshield wipers.

[@KnightRiderWRX]

Dis branco ear has the tree tree transmission with some crazy wild wood brakes on it. So you know stoppin and goin aint no thing is this crazy contraption guys!

[@stevemcgrath8546]

Yeah - I learned how to drive a stick on one of these and I learned by watching this video that I've been doing it wrong all these years. Apparently you just move the shifter up and down - no pushing it forward or pulling it back in the center to go to 2nd, 3rd or reverse ...

[@marvinkatko6982]

At the beginning of the video, when he's standing in front of it, I'm thinking 'that's not a Bronco, it's an International Scout' because the body looked too, it's hard to describe this but, "vertically fat" and I was really confounded until he mentioned that the front windshield had be chopped a few inches. I would've never imagined that that would change the look of the vehicle so dramatically. That being said, I just think it's insane to chop a bronco windshield. The biggest design flaw with the Bronco is the super low front glass. I'm not extraordinarily tall (6'0"/183cm) but I sit in the driver's seat and right at eye level I'm looking at the metal part above the glass.

[@andrewdriver3318]

The scout has a much sleeker front end and a more rounded body. Also, chopping a bronco is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard. The guy must be 5’4.

[@karag6556]

Not to be mean but if your going to drive one everyday and not looking at buying to invest why not just wait and buy a new one for that price? It will be more comfortable, be faster, get better mpg, have way more features, and probably look really nice, plus warranty and 0 miles. Considering you say it's $20-$40k for a used old one.... sure the new ones won't be a classic but whatever lol.

[@calvinpeck9158]

I predict the early bronco (1966-1977) will continue to rocket in price due to the release of the "totally rad new bronco." Due to safety requirements, emissions requirements, and modern fabrication methods I expect the new Bronco is going to look like a big plastic pile of crap blending into the mall parking lot like every other soccer mom SUV. The release upon which people will say "that doesn't look like a Bronco..." Then I will drive by and they will say "THAT'S a Bronco! Want!!!" My plan was to wait and see what Ford had to offer for 2020 then realized I was just leaving myself one of the herd. Now I own a 69.

[@karag6556]

I want the new one to stand out and look like a bronco, I respect old cars but lets be honest not many people want to put up with daily drives in a rattle trap, with sloppy suspension etc that is an old vehicle like the 1966-1977 bronco. Just want the new one to look like it while getting over double the horsepower and getting more mpg while sitting in a comfortable cabin with more thought out practicality all around.

[@calvinpeck9158]

I'd be into that. I just don't think Ford is going to deliver on that one. When I read the engineers were discussing "removable panels" in place of a fully removable roof was when I made the decision to get the classic. Those removable panels on the new hummers....oh wait...I mean the large Jeeps....show me all I need to see about them.

[@anthonymolina7416]

calvin peck the new one looks like this one

[@calvinpeck9158]

Anthony Molina according to whom? Nobody knows what it looks like except the engineers at Ford (as of 4/3/2018).

[@cfuller926]

the auger is mounted in the bed, drills holes offa da tail gait

[@ckuwi]

He calls it A CAR...... 2 times in 2 minutes... a jeep is a jeep,bronco is a bronco,truck is a truck, van is a van.... Call them a truck, but never a car.....

[@stevemcgrath8546]

Ummm ... show me ONE car from earlier than the mid to late 1990's that has "more than one lighter". Newer vehicles have a socket that's referred to as a "power point" these days - I think you're confusing your statement with ash trays. There used to be 8 ashtrays in some cars and trucks - never more than one lighter.

[@1flashlite1]

My 62 Lincoln Continental has 4 lighters and ashtrays. The only person that doesn't have one is the one sitting in the middle in back! Ha ha gotta be able to light your cigars.

[@eclipseyt05]

My Cousin has an '83 Bronco it is his first truck its a little rough though

[@saigawesnovember]

You want to attract attention? How about a white 1994 in excellent condition? And having “NOT OJ” plates. I’ve created a monster.

[@skate4king]

My car has a bugs bunny theme. I even have 20 figurines super glues to the hood! My uncles step brother gave me a custom paint job for just the cost of the cans. Its cooler than the bronco. oh yeah I forgot to mention its a 2006 Scion XB

[@LegitStreetCars]

Haha very nice!! Thanks for watching Alex

[@Realdogday727]

where can we see this?

[@fritsthomassen3796]

Because the Juice is Loos !!!!

[@cosmicbluevox1001]

Because OJ is about to be free from jail

[@rayp44]

Will wood is the correct way to say the brakes? Not while wood.

[@LaserFocused]

I would drive the heck out of a 60k 70k bronco and not even feel bad.. why?

[@nicke2307]

I just wouldnt want that thing to roll over.... dunno if i trust those roll bars

[@LegitStreetCars]

They look decent but they are bolted in so I hear ya. Honestly this wont get used for off-roading. The owner is just going to cruise it around and look cool. Thanks for watching. Alex

[@zomj14]

How about other generations of Bronco's will they rise in value too you think?

[@N1NTHWARD]

Ελληνική Πρόσωπο: I could see those early Bronco II's with the curved glass in the back and locking hubs becoming a real hit.

[@Victoria3232-j7o]

Ελληνική Πρόσωπο Most Broncos in general are rising in value the last one was made in 1996.

[@ronwilson9202]

not wild, will wood

[@dvrify1]

Why would I be in the market for this thing? (I'm new to American anything)

[@LegitStreetCars]

Because its kick ass mainly. Alex

30-80k is quite the range. Those obs wheels look terrible on that

[@thesavior2398]

22,500 is real cheap

[@still34u]

I just really hate the way he grabs the wheel with his hand turned inside out..

Just sold mine for 41,000, and with respect that thing sold for less because its hideous.

You can tell this guy didn't get raised driving anything old

Not true Tillie. I grew up with a 1970 Sklark and a 79 pinto. I've owned a bunch of old cars from the 60s and 70s. But... Thanks for watching the video, hope you liked it. Alex

[@trucavalier]

What about an 1988?

[@LegitStreetCars]

I like that generation as well. They are definitely appreciating as well. Alex

why is it painted like a scout!
