Yeap it's a bronco...;D

But really looks pretty clean to start. Do you have a budget? For a driver this is what I would do, first I might consider putting the interior back in it if you have it and driving it for a while. I have had my 74 for 2 years and it took me a solid year to settle on what I wanted out of it. Enjoy it for a while and get used to it. Stopping and turning would be big priorities for me so I would look at power steering upgrade and disc brakes in the front atleast, rear if budget allows. Again freshen up the 289, put in a 5 speed unless you have the c-4 then I would keep it.

But I would drive it a little first and that will help you decide where to spend your hard earned dough, cause these can empty a bank account in no time flat!

Most of all have fun, there are great resources here and a boatload of knowledge.

That why I ask for some pictures ..That looks pretty good I think I TOO would drive that one for a while an see which direction I wanted to go with it ..P/S would or could be a one week end job ..Redoing that interior would make you enjoy it faster. Might work on some air leaks they've all got them ..But that Bronco looks like you could enjoy it for a couple of years ..

Nice looking Bronco! I'd do like others say and drive it for a while and fix the biggest pain in the ass first, which will be P/S, I promise! You surely have a great starting point there!
