1973 half cab build The bronco ford should have made

[ford man]

No not lately but plan to get back on it this weekend.

 

[fordfan]

I was just wondering about any progress? It has been 4 months since and update; you still have the Bronco, don't you ?!?

Deer season over....Broken arm healed up and haired over....Cast removed.....Warmer weather....Plenty of willing helpers to work on it.....What excuse am I missing? LOL!!

 

[ford man]

I have lost my mominum but I plan to get it back in gear here pretty soon .The wrist dont feel the same I guess it will take some more time .I may just have to bring it back to Albama and let you finsh it.

 

[NGABronco]

Limp Wrist???? Heck, if that's the case I want to challange you to a left handed, arm wrestling contest!!!!;D;D;D

You been using that excuse long enough boy!!! Get out there and get that "bronco ford should have made" going!!!!;D;D;D

I thought I heard a rumor about this Bronco being sold to a sheik with big oil money on the other side of the big pond. I was just wondering if this was actually true?!?

It's been a year since the last activity on this thread, and I was just wanting to keep up with this one. Somehow, this project seems to have been lost in the south Georgia swamps, or maybe parted out by some NOS part hoarder.... Maybe it is still progressing!

Does anyone have any absolute proof that this beautiful build still exists?!? Maybe I was just dreaming about a slick blue LUBER halfcab! Don't tell me it was a NIGHTMARE!

 

[ford man]

Well it is still in my shop here in Leesburg Ga I do think it's going to take an oil man's money to finish it up though%).I have been working on it some lately I plan to take it to super celebration I have got to get it in gear and lite a fire under my tail.Here are a few pictures of motor most of what I have been working on.

Here is some of my nos snorkel and my carlite windows How many of the new carlite logo's has any one seen on a rear 1/2 hab window [rare 73 option]?:?

 

[fordfan]

Wow! It's looking great! The big deal is next month and I presume it will be center stage!

 

[stout22]

That is looking good! Hope you can pull it together for the Super Celebration.

That is one awsome little 1/2 cab. You did a great job on the resto.

 

[ford man]

And a few more thanks to" ford fan " for a great paint job I could not be happier. Dennis and some others here on Classic Broncos answered a lot of questions during the build so thanks to him and all that helped.

 

[ford man]

This is the interior I still got to get the ac charge up but it should be no problem keeping the 1/2 cab cool in the south GA heat.I have a few little leak's and change the c bushing for more degree and I will add a sway bar too and the list go's on but at lest it will crank and move under it own power.;D

Beautiful. Great job. Wish I could have been there to see it in person.
