Hey Everyone!

Just wanted to say hi and introduce myself. My name is Ryan and I just picked up my first Bronco. It's a 1975 Wagon, 302 3speed on the floor. Needs work but I plan fixing it all up. This will be my first 4x4, I also own two mustangs, an '04 Mach 1 and a '93 LX.

I'm sure I'll have lots of questions and will spend a lot of time reading the info on this site. So far it looks like a lot of great information and is answering many of my questions.

Thanks All,
-Ryan

Here's a few pics of the bronco:

Thanks for the welcome, defintely seems like a great group of people on here.

I can't wait to get outside and start working on it. I picked it up Sunday and it has not been all that warm out (below freezing). Even so I sat out there yesterday giving it a good look over. I don't think I will be able to really tear into it until it gets a bit warmer so I'm going to get as much info as I can now, plus I have boxes of spare parts that came with it that I have to sort through.

It also came with a spare dash, front fender, two bumpers, hood, 6 point cage, bikini top, set of half doors (full doors with the window frame chopped off), rear hardtop window and frame, and some other misc. things.

welcome to the site. there is another member on here that is from Mt. Holly also

Excellent, I also see that you're from lumberton which is right below me. I'm right on top of the Mount Holly Bypass behind the Acme. I would love to see your setup some time, I'm looking for ideas. Maybe when it gets a bit warmer or something.

I should get a heater for my garage so I can work on it:

Welcome, I'm new here too and also came from the mustang camp (traded a 65 coupe for my Bronco) Sounds like you got a pretty nice pile of parts with your Bronco.
