1968 FORD BRONCO U14 SURVIVOR FOUND IN A YARD!

When I first saw this Bronco I thought that it was another Ford with its hardtop removed. Well, I was wrong. This is actually a real U14 pickup version and it has uncut fenders. This 1968 Bronco U14 was found in a yard and it has some rust issues.

As I mentioned, this Bronco has uncut fenders and an uncut dash. The original 283 V8 is hooked up to a 3-speed manual transmission, the owner says that it runs, drives and shifts smoothly. It has some rust issues and the affected parts are the left doorpost, both inner front fenders, and rocker panels. The bench seat appears to be in good shape, and as I mentioned the dash isn’t cut or cracked. The good condition interior suggests that the truck wasn’t a work truck and that it was preserved very well.

As you would expect, the engine looks very clean as well. It is very hard to find a Bronco survivor like this one and this beauty will demand a high price.
Would you restore this Bronco or drive it like it is?
