1975 Wind Blue Survivor

I have two u13's on the chopping block if you would like to discuss?
what year, condition etc are you looking for?

Wow, that made a world of difference! Looks great. I think my 66 could really benefit from the same type of treatment.

Looks like you put new tires on - what brand/style are they? I like them.

Well it's been a while since I posted about the 75. I didn't drive it for quite some time because the jacked up stiff rear springs made it obnoxious to cruise around in. Finally got around to installing new correct bushings in some leaf springs I had laying around and bolting them in the truck. Rides a hell of a lot better now and looks better too without out the tremendous rake the old springs caused. I took the bronco up to my folks yesterday to pick up the dog and check out a couple pieces of property. I figured Id take some pics since its been so long since anyone has seen it.

I always look forward to seeing your pictures nice bronco too like the uncut original paint broncos there hard to beat!!!

Awesome recovery of a unmolested original. And Ha! I thought I recognized that red dirt and those mountains. Definitely Southeast all the way. Some of the greatest driving roads in the continent. New England is a distant (very distant) second. But the red dirt and the evergreens set evrey scene alight.

Thanks man! I certainly tend to gravitate towards the uncut ones which is a big reason I bought the cut 70. I knew Id never be able to cut a fender so ti was best to buy an original paint truck that already had the surgery done. haha.

Unfortunately it seems like all the public dirts roads in the southeast are slowly getting paved over.

Very nice pictures, Jesse! What size are the super tractions on the '75?

A member from this site actually purchased the bronco from the sign painters family and got the history. I believe he had a lot of the paperwork documenting this but unfortunately it was lost at some point between him and when I got it from another member on here.

Thats a good looking rig. I considered putting white flares on my 75 but couldn't bring myself to cut it.

Don't blame you one bit, I bought it this way, but they all look good!
