Love them or loathe them, auction sales generally set the trend for the current market pricing of our favorite vehicles. Here are five trucks up for grabs right now on Bring A Trailer.
This 1973 International Harvester Travelall might only be rear-drive with a three-speed automatic, but there’s no denying its style factor is off the charts. Clean lines, natty two-tone paint, and snazzy plaid seats make this a family 4×4 blast from the past.
Harvester fans seeking more of an off-road vibe should check out this 1979 Harvester Scout II, a Midnitestar Edition decked out in the most ‘70s paint scheme imaginable and a pair of superfluous louvers. The truck was given a refurbishment in 2011 that is said to have included a repaint in the original color, interior refreshment, and a rebuild of the 345ci V8 engine.
Shorty Broncos always pull good money, and this 1973 should be no different. Decked out with a suspension lift and 33” BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A meats, this 1973 Bronco was ordered from Ford on November 28th, 1972 and assembled two months later. The rear wheel arches were cut at some point by a previous owner and fitted with body-colored fender flares. That lift and aftermarket shocks allow the black 15″ steel wheels to wear those off-road tires.
Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40s have also skyrocketed in value. Good examples command a premium, so it’s likely this example will fill the seller’s pockets with mad cheddar. Power is from a 3.9-liter Type F inline-six mated to a 4-speed manual transmission and 2-speed transfer case. Manually locking Warn hubs are fitted on the front axle. Factory 15-inch wheels wear chrome hubcaps and the front bumper is a NOS replacement added by the seller.
Any list of auction bound off-roaders is incomplete without a true Land Rover, so we present this 1993 Defender 110. Power comes from a stock 3.9-liter EFI V8, paired with an R380 5-speed manual transmission. Its 4×4 hi-lo transfer case is endowed with a center differential lock.. Stock 16″ steel wheels have been refinished in white and wear BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A K02 tires. Take along eight of your closest friends by deploying the rear twin jump seats located on both sides of the truck.
And, yes, I know we promised only five trucks but this last one is a model over which your author drooled in high school. This handsome 1995 GMC Yukon is an elusive GT trim with – wait for it – BARN DOORS. Yeah sure, they scuppered rearward visibility and made it impossible to see that cop on your six … but look at ‘em! It’s 5.7L V8 and automatic slushbox are stock. I don’t care.
Now if you’ll please excuse me, I’m going to search the couch cushions for spare change.
