Nate's 1977 Early Bronco build
My buddy Nate from Tampa Florida who has been in the hunt for a early Bronco asked me to help him with his search. I found this nice clean 1977 Bronco in Lakeside Cali (San Diego area). This will be a full frame off resto with a few mods such as a new 5 speed transmission. This will be a nice little daily driver.

Really clean and a 77 too, good find.
Re: Nate's 1977 Early Bronco build
Beautiful truck! But why a frame off? Looks nice enough that something that extensive isn't needed.

This thing is going to be a daily driver. My buddy wants it perfect, so powder coated frame, media blasted and painted tub, etc. Should turn out really nice.toddz69 wrote:Beautiful truck! But why a frame off? Looks nice enough that something that extensive isn't needed.

That chrome grill is throwing me off... otherwise beautiful truck!

Thanks Ollie. How's your wife's EB running? That's another really nice Bronco.
This Bronco won't see much dirt. Will be shipped off to Florida and just cruising back and forth to work.

Nice truck! Should be awesome when it is done!
Re: Nate's 1977 Early Bronco build
If it's going to Florida, won't see much dirt, and will be a DD, might I suggest lowering the suspension A LOT and re-installing the front sway bar. It will handle a lot better.BajaBronco13 wrote:Thanks Ollie. How's your wife's EB running? That's another really nice Bronco.

She is one week away from being done and shipping off to Florida. This Bronco is just stunning in person and drives so nice. My friend Nate flew in to take a look at it before it's put on a trailer and sent off:

Wow, the outside really looks sweet. What a change from what it was, which was actually a pretty nice looking Bronco to begin with! Great job
