Gotta love the 70s era Fords, Nice truck and welcome!

What are you doing over here Jasno - you don't have a bronco????

Oh wait - I don't either

I do have some 70's Ford though


How are those bed supports holding up? I can't remember if you painted them already or not. Hopefully so. If not - swing by and I'll sand blast them to get the rust I'm sure would be there off, and then we can paint um.


Oh and broncodawg - pics of the 79 please!

Steve,

You do have a Bronco, that Eddie Bauer that's in pieces in your shop, lol.

[ChaseTruck754]

you mean the motor, radiator, door, 9", t-case, 1 rim and center console?

That's all that's left of that poor bastard!

Don't remind me. It hurt me to see it chopped up but hey lots of good parts went to lots of different vehicles.

I tried to sell it whole and nobody was having it. Plus the damn goobernment and the smog nazi's would have made it a nightmare to get CA legal. Oh well - it's gone and many of the good parts will live on in my 74.

That and as you said - lots of other parts went to help other bronco/f-150 owners.

gotta love the Ford sites!! Gettin some good ideas for my build. Bed supports doing great! Need some front shocks and get that damn 60 in the rear! Some springs from Deaver, a cage, some lights, some front glass, some ...... well alot a shit!

[ChaseTruck754]

you know darn well 90% of your list is sitting in my shop and for sale. We just gotta figue out when we can get you rich so we can start throwin parts at it!

[ChaseTruck754]

So Jason is taking the Hauler to the Barstow cleanup this coming weekend and wanted to get a skid plate on the thing before we (I'm riding with him) went. He came over Friday after work and we fought my shop and the tool nightmares (broken bender, TIG pedal, etc. etc.) to get the thing pretty much done. He'll throw on the aluminum before we go and all should be good!

[tcm glx]

I really dig that truck. I am starting to have a little sense of desire for one of those 70's rig's!
