[quote author=eBronc link=board=5;threadid=12930;start=0#97104 date=1041703260]<br><br><br>The sensible, logical thing to do is to PRESERVE the Broncos that are still in good shape - keep them stock, uncut, unmodified and appreciate them for what they are. Do NOT cut up a perfectly good original truck when there are literally thousands of rusty, modified EB's out there for the asking. Grab one of those and have your way with it. Turn it into a daily driver, a trail truck, a rockcrawler - whatever. An EB being used (for whatecer purpose) is better than an EB going to the crusher. <br><br>If you've got an original, uncut, nice early Bronco and you really want a trail truck, sell the original to someone who appreciates it and will preserve it. Use the money to buy your choice of more practible EB choices and all the parts you want to modify it. Heck, you can even restore it if you want to. <br><br>There's room for both sides in the hobby if everybody uses a little common sense (wishful thinking, I know..but it could happen. Maybe.)<br>[/quote]<br><br><br> I agree 100 percent...If my 66 halfcab had the original motor, I would restore it to dealership specs. Color, and all...Even though it doesn't have the original motor, I'm still going to keep it as close to stock as possible...I plan on painting it Tennessee Orange, Or Dark Green, put in carpet, move the shifter to the floor, and a mild 2" lift just to get the rear quarters off the tires...Thats about it...When I was younger, I thought the stock Bronco looked dorky, but now that you see so many modified Broncos, the stock ones look cool....
