Well, almost. I'm going to pick it up this weekend.
I found a '70 Sport that's in pretty good shape. The good news is that the engine is less than 2 years old, and it already has a D44 front axle and 4.11 gears. The body is solid, except the bottom of the tailgate and the lower corners of the rear quarters need attention. It's still got the 3 speed manual tranny, manual drum brakes, and manual steering.
I've been lurking here for a while, gathering as much info as I could about EBs. I've always been a Ford man, and have had mainly Mustangs and F150s in my stable. I've always liked Broncos, but never had a good reason to buy one. There's a group of guys at work that I've been hanging out with that are big into off-roading, and I figured this was the perfect opportunity, err excuse;D, to find a Bronco to play with.
Anyway, thanks for all the help you guys have already, unwittingly offered. This site is a great source of information. Oh yeah, and thanks to all of you, my wish list is already 2 pages long!!!
Lots to do before a trip to Moab in June.![Cool :cool: :cool:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
