i know my same thoughts exactly especially this one was fully documented original. maybe the earlier ones are worth more.
So I have started the search for something to replace my wifes 2009 outback.....my wife has had essentially the exact same green outback since the year 2000....(one 2001, then a 2009)....To say im just so fucking sick and tired of fixing shit box subaru problems is a massive understatement. I think I can best sum up Subarus......they always run, they are cheap and easy to repair.....but they are always in some state of broken. Anyway, so I have informed her that she is never getting another subaru again as a condition of our marriage.
So of all the new vehicles she wants...her #1 pick is a new 4 door bronco....which hey, sounds good to me. In fact, I will take great pleasure in getting a new bronco and using it to run over her old subaru repeatedly
However, since they are not going to be available for a while....I have been looking at other trucks....And she BEGS me to buy them...That ford b100, she was YELLING at me to bid on....Yesterday, she wants me to bid on this one...which I do kinda love.

I had a 71 Blazer and always wanted a Suburban of the same generation. I wonder what's hiding under that paint though. That's not just a paint crack on the quarter, that's some thick body work under there.
Ya I gave this a quick once over and I just love old broncos, blazers and suburbans....but I could never see myself buying something like this sight unseen...the mustang taught me too much about what lies beneath. And a paint crack like that is usually pretty telling...But i love the year and style of that suburban

I believe factory fives are about the cheapest or close to it to buy knew....Cobra kits have been around since the 80s now and there are ALOT of them out there built already. Not too hard to find a decent one in the $40,000 range used.
