The Classic Bronco Build. THANK YOU to everyone on this forum. Without every post, tech article, parts sell and purchase I would be stuck with a POS 1972 bronco. Over the past year I have referenced this forum for everything to do with transforming the bronco from a rusted floor bronco needing paint, interior, brakes and upgrades to what it is today. For the most part I have added or change many or most of the parts while keeping it as true as possible.
I jumped into the Bronco world in May 2011 at the request on my daughter. She wants a bronco for her 16th birthday. I purchased a cut 1972 bronco that needed new floor pans, paint, interior and drive train updates. You know where this is heading.. My first purchase after the bronco was a sawzall, then the list got long.
Below are changes or upgrade we did:
Spleedliner paint in and out
kwik wiring
new floor pans
new lights, lens
Crate motor 302
Power steering
Power disk brakes (ford)
New brake and fuel lines
Explorer serpentine upgrade
New interior
Rebuild gauges
New tire and rims
A/C
A billion other small and big parts that go with each change
A thousand things we did but I can not remember
I can now see the light at the end of the tunnel on our build, yes our build. I turned the wrenches but it was all based on the parts and information from this forum. I did make some mistakes and I am still fighting some issues but they are minor in comparison to where we were a year ago. The title will however be in my name ;^)
Thanks again CB for rescuing another EB
