well we got it inside and started cleaning it up, my son vacuumed 10 years of acorns out of engine bay, we removed the top and windshield both look ok, some minor repairs. The tub is pretty rusty...but im gonna attempt to save the old girl. here are some pictures from the pick up and loading...front wheels are frozen solid so my friend used his loader to pick up the front end of the bronco and precisely put it on the trailer!

Well, I've seen worse. Great way to move it, nice to have a buddy with a loader when you need it!

front fender, its rusty but it'll do.

Have fun with the build!

That is actually a nice start if it is a New England truck. Lots of bronco boys in the area with parts lying around too! Welcome to the board. Make sure you hook up with the bones crew! Tasker a.k.a. Sasquatch is the president... ;D

nice job, welcome, was it a six or 289? I can only see your most recent pics, probably blocked by my employer :mad:
