Been working towards having a 2nd trail Bronco for a little over 10 years. Started with a 72 I found that had been sitting with a blown engine at a deer camp in Louisiana, changed plans and decided to rebuild a wrecked 76 from the frame up....got the rolling chassis together and then found a running and driving 75 in 2009 for cheap so we changed plans again and started moving new parts from the rolling chassis to the 75. Working up north and living in MS with no time off didn't work well with rebuilding a Bronco, however in the spring of 2012 I had managed to round up enough parts that it was feasible to get it together for OCBR that year. Put together a work weekend and accomplished more than one could imagine. Almost immediately afterwards the company I was working for sold and my situation changed drastically, was never able to get home to Mississippi and spend any time working on the 75, it was all I could do just to maintain my 73 and enjoy it occasionally. And that's how it has sat for 5 years. 3 weeks ago my son-in-law and I went to Mississippi and hauled it to Ohio to get it done. Below is a link to the original thread. Hope to have this thing breathing on it's own soon. Goal is to be ready to hit the trails next spring. Hopefully this time it happens.
