New to the group, just bought a 1969 Bronco and other than some bad rust in the A pillar area the truck is factory stock with 67000 miles. I was shocked to find original spark plugs, distributor, water pump etc. I never expected to find one with so many original parts, shocks are even from 1969. It has a 302 3 speed, twin fuel tanks. Plans are for power front disc brakes a c4 auto trans. Paid 10k Canadian plus 4k in sheet metal. Should make a nice winter project

Welcome! And congrats.
Did you already take possession of it, or is it still on the way, so to speak?
And yes, we love pics!

My '71 also had 67,000 miles on it when I bought it. But that was in '77!
I did front disc brakes on mine, and love it. I kept them manual though, instead of power. Don't feel like I'm losing anything, but then again, my legs aren't getting any stronger. I might have to upgrade that last bit someday.

Good luck and have fun with yours.

I have possession, I have been taking it apart and doing some metal work.
