Im going to guess 6 grand, lots to do there to make it great.

Thanks gnpenning, no we don't have an emissions standard here in Iowa. I just want to keep everything original on this bronco. I bought it from my neighbor who bought it new. It was all original inside the engine bay, smog and everything and I tore it all down numerous years ago but took lots of...

Mine doesn't have a vacuum switch on the thermostat housing, just this one right behind it that is screwed into the manifold. The EGR valve on the back of the carb does run to this switch and is hooked up in the picture. The other port on the switch has a T on it with 2 open ports. Do I run a...

I'm getting close to starting the 302 in my 1976 Bronco that I have been restoring back to original and have a vacuum line question. The distributor, I'm assuming wants ported vacuum and the 2150 carb has the ported vacuum line on the side of the carb on the passenger side of the vehicle. (see...

Thanks EPB72

I am putting the rebuilt carb and EGR valve base back on and it came with 4 gaskets. 2 thin gray gaskets, 1 thicker black gasket with encased metal and one very thick black spacer type gasket with plastic inserts installed in the 4 holes. See picture with the gaskets laid out as stated above...

Nice job on the door, fender and rear quarter lines!

I was thinking that those were for the neutral safety switch coming up from the transmission linkage. I can go check on my 76 tomorrow and let you know for sure if not answered by then.

thank you all for the pics and advice. I appreciate it lots. Paul

Thanks for the photos and the suggestions folks.

I got the tank dilemma figured out. The 73 to 78 ford pickups used the same tank as the bronco but they added the metal shield to them because they were mounted parallel with the manifold and it was used for heat deflection. Mine is even date coded correct, august of 75, they just used one for...

I have a question on installing the washer fluid box on my 76 bronco. There are three holes in the tank to bolt to the fender well. I can get the top two holes lined up but the bottom hole is about two inches from sitting flat with the fender well. I can tell all three holes were used as...

thank you

I am looking for someone with an original 1976 or 77 bronco to take photos of the engine compartment area. Mainly need wire harness routes, solenoid area etc of the entire engine area. The more pics the better as I am putting things back together following the frame off restoration that started...

I'm installing the rubber floor kit in my 76 and was wondering what you guys do, drill out the holes for the seats in the rubber floor or cut the complete contact surface area out with a razor knife? The reason I ask is because there are double holes close to each other in the seat frame and...
