No idiot is going to pay $120k for that.

If they lowered it down to $30k....maybe as a kit vehicle. Some might think about it.

How big can that market be? How many want this after buying their Ferraris, Lambos, Koenigseggs, Veyrons, Range Rovers, etc? Looks like a loser deal to me.

At one time you could buy reconditioned Original Toyota Landcruisers for about $35K. Those and these original Ford Broncos were the best 4WD off road vehicles you buy except for Hummers.

Looks like it would be cold as all get out in the winter......Even if I could get one for 15K, I wouldn't waste the money.

30k would be the limit for me.

I always loved that style Bronco. The full sized, I could take or leave.

At least my project K5 is idling on this cold yuck day I took off. Errand and transport spouse and dog to things.

Landcruisers are tough, no doubt.

I’d mention the IH scouts. Tough sets of wheels.

I’m not a bronco fan because of the short wheel base. But, I like the concept of retro mod builds of iconic cars from the past using modern drive trains and accessories.

The closest I will get is my Willys CJ5 or my CJ7.

I hope by summer at least the Willys jeep is done and roadworthy and CJ7 will be ready for major surgery.

Great vehicle but shorty high vehicles are prone to rolling over.
