Great looking Bronco! What's your plan for this thing?

Thanks for the welcome, everyone! I really appreciate this forum; I've been lurking a while doing some research.

Plan is to just make this one more drivable. Not looking for any serious off-road capability; I just don't do that type of thing . . . . yet. When I was in college, I had a 1996 Ford F-150 4x4 that I really loved driving. This reminds me of that and I like to tinker.

First things first will be to sort out the steering and the brakes. The steering is quite bad and the truck has power (hahahahaha) drum brakes all around. So I'll need to address both of those in short order.

I've got plenty of things to keep me busy on this one: wiring needs updating, some gaskets need to be addressed, and I'll start chasing down the jingles and rattles. ;D

Other than that, I'll be looking at putting in a family cage, A/C at some point, and maybe way down the line think about fuel injection (but that's way down the road at this point).

Excellent to see some more EB owners in Baton Rouge area! Once I figure out how much I don't know, I'll probably be bothering some of you guys. ;D
