Re: my ol' girl, 76' F250
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!

Don't remind me. It hurt me to see it chopped up but hey lots of good parts went to lots of different vehicles.ChaseTruck754 wrote:you mean the motor, radiator, door, 9", t-case, 1 rim and center console?

Re: my ol' girl, 76' F250
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.

Re: my ol' girl, 76' F250
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!
