The original first year Broncos have seen a surge in pricing over recent years as all Broncos have but for collectors and enthusiast this THE “1966 U13 Roadster” is a top tier prime pick for their collection. They seldom come up for sale. The 6cyl is virtually unbustable and the have ample power for road use, great torque and great for local Beach communities, it cut down door and open air driving vibe is sweet. Unlike the crazy highly lifted retsomod Broncos this has a nice clean very stable stance, they are much easier to drive and a thrill with 3 on the tree. The hubcaps for a original ’66 are so RARE they are typically priced at $4,000 for the set if you can even find them and these are restored and original to the vehicle.
