    Which are you?

    How about a category for backwoodsmen. Grew up in the country surrounded by farms. Better than looking skyrises but it gets boring looking at cornstalks and soybeans. Same thing living in the Fl keys looking at a flat ocean.

    Kayline soft top

    No way would I give them $525 for it even if I was on crack:). I was thinking about $300 max. Also for those of you that have went from a snap and roll up window to a zip out how did you like it. I've read that some people like not having to store the zip out and liked just having to roll them up.

    Kayline soft top

    Did some Googling last night and finally found I think that Kayline stopped production around the beginning of 2001. So that makes that top at least 10 yrs old. Even in mint condition I would have some question about its age. What would the life expectancy of the materials of a top be? How long...

    Kayline soft top

    Whats it worth ?

    Well got a email from the daughter. In short after she talked to me she called the two brothers (ones autistic like and the other bum like)who still lives at their Dads house and told them she was going to sell the Bronco to me for $650. I always got along with them but I guess they got upset...

    Whats it worth ?

    Not to put the kabookie on myself but they told my Dad $650. At that price I figured I didn't need to know much more. My dad was going to visit me before a surgury he has at the beginning of next month. So he was going to do a one way U-haul rental and bring it to me which was going to cost...

    Source For Steel

    junebug. Don't know what yours would figure out to be,but my local source figures it up and prices it by the weight. If I get it out of their scrap barrels I get it cheaper as scrap metal prices. I live in the country and I have to drop my trash off at a county operated trash & recycling point...

    Whats it worth ?

    Thanks eagertolearn. I don't think the family would let a complete stranger on the property to look at it. If worst comes to worst I have a uncle who lives near them who is a autobody man that I could prob get to go look at it for me. But he is kinda like the keeps the score type. So I always...

    Humiliated by the Ex

    Children are very impressionable at that age. I hope you haven't scared your son for life letting your ex beat you in your Bronco. What kind of role model are ya. Maybe ya need to get him into some counseling to help rid him of that thought. I'mmmm just kidding ;D. Sounds at least like the ex...

    Show me your wheels

    32 x 11.50 x 15 BFG MT on 15 x8 American Racing Type 26 I bought years ago. I don't like the wheels for wheeling cause the valve stems keep getting wacked and I keep getting debris in the bead. If you look close at about 5:00 you will see some left over from last weekends outing. The old MT's...

    Ammo can center console / lockbox

    This is too funny. I also thought about taking a ammo box and making a storage box for my CB. I also have the same steering wheel on my 71 I put on years ago cause the original was to big. But the bolts aren't rusted and still has the horn button that works. FYI its a GT Grant. Are the later...

    Need Body Lift recommendation

    A BL also moves the top of the tranny lower so you have more room for the shifter rod below the dash. Its also not just a matter of cutting a hole for the shifter rod through the sheetmetal. There is a support for strength in that area. The top (alum part) of the tranny will stick up through if...

It felt real funny to me and I had one h*ll of a time getting it out of 4wheel low. I had to admit to my dad...
