I had a bunch of pm's asking me about my 70 Bronco that I have posted a few pics of in the What did you do today thread. Figured I'd put it all in one place here for anyone interested.
I bought this as a partially done project in June of 2022. I've built a few 69's and had a 73" Bronco for a long time. When I saw this thing pop up, I had to have it. I originally wanted to finish the body and paint it the original Yucatan Gold color but as soon as I saw it in person I knew I had to leave it. This is a purpose built rock crawler, extreme trail rig so why not leave the patina.

I contacted Paul, we talked for a long time and I sent him a deposit and worked out shipping from TN to NV.
The full spec list is HUGE, so here is the shortlist
Original 302, Rebuilt, Aluminum heads and intake, explorer front dress, Holley sniper, Vintage air conditioning, dual batteries, Wilwood Hydroboost
3.5 Springs up front with 2.5 leaves in the back, Ruffstuff perches, Wildhorse Shackles, Bilstein 7100 Shocks.
4.88 Gears, Disc brakes front and rear, ARBS front and rear with Yukon Shafts
NP435 Transmission, Dana 20, Tom Woods Driveshafts, BC Broncos 23 gallon tank
Full rear wire with American Autowire, LEDS inside, outside, everywhere.
38x13.50r18 Nitto Trail Grapplers on 17x9 Trail Ready hard rock beadlocks.
Still to do:
Armorgeddon rear corners that I just got from Wildhorse4x4
Clean up the rockbars
Build a spare tire carrier on the rear bumper
Day it showed up:
