Hello i want to start my build thread here but cant figure out a name for it so that will come later. My plans for the build are to make a nice Daily Driver/off road vehicle. I all ready use it as a DD but only drive it about 10 miles a day. I do not have a lot of extra money so i plan on building it with extra parts i have or with things i make.
as for the bronco my parents bought it when i was 13 as a project for me and my day to work on and it was to be my first vehicle. but things changed and it was booted, and sat outside for 6 and a half years. i am now 20 and i sold my focus (32 Mpg) to fix up the bronco (12 MPG) silly thing to do but my love for old fords betters my urge for better gas mileage lol.
Specs-
1969 ford bronco half cab
57,730 miles on the original 302
three on the tree converted to a floor shifter
235/75/R15 street tires
stock suspension, old cracked rubber bushings
body is in decent shape but has rust (used hockey pucks for body mounts lol)
frame is ok a few spots were i am going to have to put some new metal in
interior is ok need to put a back seat in it, the gas gauge, speedo, and oil pressure gauges are the only ones that work
Plans-
to restore it to a great looking but used off road vehicle when my wallet allows it
Pics first is when i was brought home 6 years ago and then the rest is clean up and peppering it for the road.
sorry for the pic quality it will get better
also if you guys think of a name feel free to post, also any cheap or free upgrades you think of let me know all help is appreciated
