red one should buff out nicely. green one seems a bit under-powered to my beginners eye....

Brought the green lifted rig home....slednut Art was gracious enough to transport lil red to the migs plantation for the time being. What a shame as red has 24k original and is surprising solid in spots....not where the bag of salt was however! Thanks Art....you are a true Bronco brother!!

Good man there for sure....

Hey Franko, the red one is going to require some SERIOUS bracing if you do this......😖
The roof, however, will be fine as the truck doesn't weigh much anymore:cry:

once you weld roof, doors , tailgate, hood permanently shut and weld the frame to custom support brackets that att to the tie-beam of the roof ... its going to be just fine .

Heck the few holes in the floor are good water drainage ;D

but that plow att gtg !

BTW ... U15 TLT VIN is a first for me ! never seen on that late w. a 200

Too bad that red one's now safely in a protected Bronco sanctuary where it's allowed to roam free amongst its own kind and dream of one day recapturing its former glory....;D

Reminds me - I had a buddy that sold an old AMC Gremlin that had been sitting for a LONG time. The guy that bought it called him and said he saw stuff falling off while towing it home so he slowed down. Once he slowed down he could see it was rats jumping out of it and bouncing down the road. He sped up and didn't park it near his house.

No piles of Bronco carnage with that Kubota so close?
