I went to a business friend of mine's shop today. I was going to pick up some handrail for a job I am working on. Well On the way I get a call. it is a response to a craigslist add I had seen. It's for a bronco, the guy has a rolling frame, needs it gone. I tell him I am on the road and really have no time to look at the truck. he askes where I am going, turns out it is close to my buddys shop. Well I get to the shop and BS with my friend for a while, get the handrail loaded and then another call. Same guy tells me he really needs the truck gone, please come buy and take a look. My buddy has a trailer, I tell him the story, he says take my trailer with you and go pick it up. So I did. Now keep in mind I left the house to pick up some wood. I came home with whats left of a bronco. My wife just shook her head and stated " You can't stop, can you?" I can't stop. Now they are finding me. The deal was take it, just take it all. So Now I have to go get a few body pieces off and then take the sheetmetal to the scrap yard. The frame has some good parts on it.

I can't even get people to call me back from CL and you get them free and delivered. Nice. Can't wait to see what you can do with this one.

No way I can do anything with this truck. I'm getting the smoke wrench out and getting what I can. It must be 90 degrees out today. Took a look at it. The motor turns, has a 44 up front, BB 9'' with small brakes? C4 is all there, power steering. I am going to pull the front and rear, and the engine trans and 20, and the ps gear. The rest is going to the scrap steel yard. Time to break out the back ho.

hey bax if the frame is good.. i would not mind having it if you are parting it for free... i want a frame for a trailer for the back half of a bronco... and it kinda looks like you have that there as well... are the tires any good.

really all i have to do is call Rob and ill be there if he is available...! Or if you just want to trailer it over here im actually out by Rob next to the habatat golf course.

You want the frame, it's yours. Rob has already been over. He needed the alternator bracket.
