    Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught, will we realise that we cannot eat money

    Too expensive to run, fuel here is about 6 dollars a gallon.

    Default Bronco

    I had one when I was in Nevada a few years ago. I absolutely adored it. Difficult to reconcile the 5.8 litre engine from a UK perspective, but perfect for the desert.

    Yours is in a great condition. How long did it take to restore?

    We used one in the Canadian Rockies for off-road work. Seemed to go over most things but the gas was cheaper then and trucks were about half the prie compared to the UK!

    Cheers,

    I've always wanted a 1968 half-cab version in green. It's a vehicle that really looks like it can go off-road

    Just as well - they'd run us dry of fuel in no time!

    Nice Bronco, Definately in good shape. I like how you extended the back for a sleeping area.
