• Be EXTREMELY cautious if someone offers to buy your Bronco for more than your asking price and sight unseen. ESPECIALLY if the buyer is overseas. It's probably a scam.

How much of a project are you looking for? I have a "project" and a bunch of stuff already upgraded. She needs a new drivers side floor pan and I was planning on having the whole inside stripped and bed lined after that as I see some small rust spots coming through what's on there now. She has 4x Billstein shocks (4100 I'm pretty sure), new springs with a 3.5" lift I think and 2" body lift I think. I put the kit together myself based on what was most popular here on CB. I'd have to look back at the receipts to see what brands the lift is. I was shooting for a nice ride. I did the F250 shock extensions on the front end. She has what looks like brand new Federal tires x4, 33" I think. I have 2x powdercoated metal doors from one of the vendors here on the hide. I have a Toms Bronco Parts Full Roll Cage not installed. I have a new Painless wiring harness not installed. The Bronco is a 6 cyl. I have a new Bikini top not installed. I have 2x heated seats and drivers seat with lumbar support not installed. I had the instrument cluster sent off and was refurbished by a vendor here on the hide and was not installed. The Bronco does have a hard top. I may be missing some things.

So, right now the Bronco is ready to have the drivers side floor pan replaced, inside floor reworked, new wiring harness installed (old wiring harness cranks it but there are burned spots and the wipers stopped working last time I drove it). I also have the original seats, including bench seat. Have both doors. She is stripped down right now and is ready to be worked on.

I am missing a couple of things but you get the feel of where this Bronco is. I had a part welded to the front driveshaft during the lift install to assist with the steering. I don't remember what the part is called but it makes those 2 bars run parallel.

The Engine is not original to the EB. I forget where it came from but I had a hard time finding a fuel pump for it LOL.

Pretty sure I have 2x removable door hinges on the original doors.

I'm wanting to do a complete tear apart and rebuild everything. wanted one of these since I was 20,I'm 47 now and just finished building my 85 4runner and was going to swap a 460 bb and everything else from an 88 f-250 into my 90 bronco but decided to sell all that and now on the look out for a 70-77 preferably bronco (not half cab) v-8 so if anyone has one or knows of one let me Know. Thanks

Does anyone have a Bronco in the area? I'm driving myself crazy and am on the verge of buying a 77 F150 :cool: . Please don't let me! lol. The Bronco fever is slowing little by little so I need to get one soon before I get a truck.
