the fenders are tucked away tight but he was able to get a pic of the back side....only 4 holes.

I think the 66 fenders have one less hole for the emblems...the bottom of the b I think...I have a set in the attic and will have my son take a pic when he gets home. Also no turn cut out of course. pretty sure there four pin bronco emblems in 66 so five holes would be 67 and later.. Thanks John

RUST...hidden rust...rust you find out after you buy sucks...IMO I would stay away from cowl and door post rust! Sometimes an original paint bronco with visible floor rust and a solid cowl and door post is a good find. Guys are good at hiding stuff too! I bought a 73 with all kinds of goodies...

This is a list of what was done to it over that past year and i will post pics later... Bought this 66 half cab since it came with a clear title, good frame and most of the hard to find 66 stuff. On the five hour drive I was surprised at all the thumbs ups and smiles I got as people passed...

ROB, I going to add a long list of what has been done to it and later a bunch of pics. If you need more that what I post let me know and I will be happy to send you more. Thanks John

Thanks for you help!

let me know if you can see the video? I think it working now? I will try to get my son to get some good pics on the underneath today. Thanks John

Bought this a little over a year ago for the title and frame....Wanted to see if I could get it running and got carried away. Kept looks in found condition but mechanically restored"everything works". Currently reg with clean title. u14fl7531** *Update* Beer and Fish and others I may have...

No worries...I have three broncos, all my cards are maxed out!!! Thanks John

k...so I put together a better looking gauge with other parts and moved the volt gauge out a bit more...IMO looks better. I added some led lights and the first pic is bronco gauge lights only and the next pic is adding the vdo light. Thanks John

I like that idea! This is probably when a simple idea goes bad, but I'll bite! Thanks John

I quickly re-assembled the speedo and pretty happy with the position…I may grind the opening more on the outside of the housing next time to see the Volt wording better? I will be completely be restoring a whole unit for my 73 with this volt gauge and will post a pic when done. Any ideas...

All the gauges now matched distance and I was ready to installed the speedo head.

Installed it through the housing and reversed the white mounting ring and tightened up.

My challenge was finding a spacer between the housing and the speedo head that matched the distance of the rest of the stock gauges. After looking around the garaged I found that a Teflon tape cover with a little trimming of the inside lip on one side worked perfect.

Since in a little lazy I used a plasma cutter to trim a bit and finished it off with a half round file.

I decided I wanted to install the VDO gauge whole and adjust the bronco housing. I marked out the housing to get the gauge to fit.

I first disassembled the cluster.

So I am off work for a bit after a lower back fusion and cant do any heavy wrenching for a couple months and totally bored. I really like the look of the stock speedos but hate the amp gauge and the idea of looping that old thick wire through the firewall behind the amp gauge. I know they...

So now I feel the need to get it to run and stop…just to make it easy to move around…I think this is where the complete frame on Rustoration began! I put the 73 on hold and got Rusty running. We decided to try to keep the rust bucket look but make it mechanically sound and safe to drive...
