New Ride

[Louie]

Check out my new '67 ;D Vitals: Frame and underside sandblasted and painted with por15, rebuilt 289 w/ Edelbrock intake & Holly 650 carb, WH 3 1/2" susp. lift & 3" body lift with 35" MTRs on new Eagle 589s, Duffy 3 spd, traction bars, WH bumpers.

The list goes on...Chevy front disc conversion & F350 master cylinder, functional hood scoop, Auto meter guages, CD with Sony 6x9s built into panels in the back and 5" speakers in a diamond plate toolbox/center console, H4 bulbs. Seats are out of a Geo Tracker. I have new Bestop Tracker seatcovers on the way. The floor is linexed and has marine carpet. What else...dual shocks on front, dual flomaster exhaust, warflares, stainless brake lines, custom rollbar.

And it's a blast to drive!

Sweet ride! I love the color.

 

[Louie]

Thanks guys. Actually, I have to give credit to the 2 POs who both did the restoration in a couple of stages. I'm just doing some bolt-on stuff with bumpers and wheels and such to personalize it.

I Love Your Bronco

Would you mind telling me how much you bought it for or have into it?
I know nothing about broncos and am thinking about
buying one (see site below). I can get it for $12,000
but I am worried about rust and stuff I know nothing
about...

Do you think it is worth 12 k?

[highrlr]

Yes, very sweet ride indeed!!!!!

 

[Louie]

Thanks. The color is a GM OEM medium blue mettalic.

It does have some shortfalls...Dana 30 and no power steering. But the 4.11 gears move the 35" MTRs no prob. I need to get some new 2 piece soft doors too.

A couple more pics...

 

[OldieTwoShoes]

yay i dont feel bad i have a d30 and armstrong steering too ;D, just not 8 cyl and no 35s :'( and your bronco is very nice ;D, as for who asked the question about buying a bronco start a new thread you will get a lot of help but i can tell you you really ned to go look at it and depending on where you live that could be a resonable price or a high price, but in all it looks like its pretty good

 

[Chief Master Sergeant]

One of the nicest I think I've ever seen. Sweet!

Sweet ride Louie. I like that colour. That wouldnt happen to be the same Bronco pictured in Bronco Driver issue 9 in the readers rides section? If it is, I like it much better without the warn sticker. If its not, your truck has a near identical twin ;D

That would be the one He ( PO ) did a good bit of work to it. I think he did about everything except the engine rebuild which the PO before him did a great job on.

I agree...it's like a big piece of blue eye candy for us Bronco lovers!

Too bad I'm gonna sell it... :'(
