I'm a newbie to the early broncos always played with muscle cars but I saw one and fell in love. 1976 bronco uncut completely original. has the C4 auto with the original 302 and runs really strong has some surface rust here and there but all in all not bad.

the bad news is needs a new floor pan under the driver seat. and the drivers side stiker is bad along with the drivers side rear fender.

anway I paid 600 for it. what do you guys think. not to bad.

my only problem is I want to lift it so it is going to be tough to cut the fenders. anyone know how big of tires I can fit without cutting the fenders???

You got a smokin' deal, from the sound of it. 1976 had power steering, disc brakes, BB rear end, D44 front. Nice.

Do a search on the biggest tires you can fit w/o cutting the fenders. The topic has been covered many times.

Welcome to the board.

holy crap that's a fast reply... and thanks for all the knowledge. I was about to look up the front and rears. I really can't wait to get started on it I have been debating on using vacation time to get going on it but my wife might not be too happy about that ;D

i promise pics will be up this weekend... I drove it to my buddies house he lived down the road from the seller and I will be flat bedding it on saturday morning... (rather not drive the 2 hours until I really go over everything) and I guess the fact there is no floor under my feet would make me stain my shorts going down the highway :)

I wish I could find someone who didn't know what they had.. Most of the one's I find the owners think are made of gold.

Congratz on your purchase and post some pics so we can all be even more Jealous...
