Project Double R 1966 Bronco Build

BroncoKid66 · May 29, 2012

Alright here's our 66 U-15 that we picked up on Sunday. Its was built in November of 65. It has the 170, 3 on the tree, dana 20, D-30/9inch 4.10 gears, eyebrow grill, Dealer installed bulkhead, roof rack, James Duff 3.5 inch lift, 31/10.50 Dayton tires etc. The plan is to slowly restore it to stock with uncut fenders but keep the lift on it. Its just gonna be a cruiser no offroading. Here are the pics.

Its got eyebrows!!!

So today me and my dad rebuilt the carb to get it running good. Ya it looks like crap but its clean inside and it purrs like a cat.
Master Rebuild kit

We were surprised there was nothin to it

Bottom Half cleaned and new parts installed

All back together

When we go through the motor we'll get everything nice and clean

Anyone know if this is a factory sticker??

Very nice start! You have a very clean Rig there. Welcome.

That sticker looks like one that would be installed if the Bronco was driven by multiple drivers for a business or municipality. Nice truck!!

Alright small update. Figured out that its got a 69 250 mustang motor in it. We're planning on a mildly built 289 swap. Found a good complete low mile engine that we are gonna trade for our 351c. I also found out that one of the leaf springs is mounted backwards so I gotta get on that. We also rebuilt the shift column so we now have 2nd and 3rd!!! Hopefully it'll be daily drivable come end of summer. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.
