Ok so me and bronco buster and chandler went and got the parts and the first bronco out of the woods today. Funny thing is we paid a pretty fair amount for two broncos and a bunch of parts. But I don't want to see a Bronco rot away. Karma works in funny ways. First after reading another thread on here I realized we had received an expensive rear 1966 silver bench seat in really good condition. Then when I went to get parts the owner gave me a bunch of New parts in boxes he didn't use and then he tells me he is giving me 3 good 3 speeds 3 aluminum bellhousings and 2 hurst shifters for them with tunnels. This morning I asked what the vintage AC was for and he told me Oh that's yours also. I got the first bronco home and just finished cleaning it out and I am pleasantly surprised. It is much better than I expected. Great rear floor with only rust on the corner extensions and the front pillars are solid as is the cowling and fire wall. So front floors, bottoms of rear pillars, windshield frame, rear corner extensions and outer fenders and a rear inner will be replaced.
Oh Yea, Found out she's a 74 Ginger

Well done!

Those are some serious saves there; can't wait to see how this turns out. I guess you'll be getting a lot done in a short amount of time. Seriously it helps to have a deadline right?

Congrats on those and great save.

Yes 26 aug 2016 or before is target date for Chandlers. We will also prob have the other one done about the same time but Bronco Buster keeps telling me Chandlers is priority

Thanks all

Getting this revived. We ended up building Chandlers from another 75 we found that I thought was in better condition. I was wrong. But his is done (I haven't updated his build thread but I will) so the green 74 is my other son Charles build. Was trying to build this while he was deployed in Africa but had too many setbacks on chandlers. Anyway Charles is away at flight school for Helos for Army so I am once again under the gun to try to get this one done by Christmas when he graduates. This is gonna be another resto roadster so it will be easier than Chandlers. I will post some more pics of progress so far from computer.
