I wanted to say thank you to the people here. I've been a "lurker" for a few months and finally pulled the trigger on a 1971 Bronco. Blue with just a little rust. 3 Speed manual with the floor shifter conversion. Tranny has about 1000 miles on it. It has a Ford 289 V8 that was built up and installed about 3000 miles ago. Mechanically the truck seems good. New F-150 power steering system and a new 3" lift. I live in Marietta, GA. The Bronco will be picked up by a transport company from Salt Lake City, Utah and I should have it by the end of this month (Feb.)
I'm sure I'll have some questions once I get the Bronco, but I've done a lot of reading here and on the 'net.
I plan on purchasing the 3-point seatbelt system from Tom's that attaches to the stock rollbar. New carpet, aftermarket bucket seats, Tuffy console with new radio and speakers are also planned. I just need to clean the truck up cosmetically. I'll need a new rear liftgate since it appears most of the rust is located there with a little hole in the left side bottom corner.
Has anyone installed a 3-point seatbelt? Tips or photos would be most welcome. I'll post some pics from the eBay auction once I upload them to Photobucket and take some new ones once the truck arrives.
