Ol' Ugly finally popped up on the priority list! My Cleveland adventure is at an end, sadly. (I blame the slow witted engine builder, and the sorry schmuck who tuned it)
I've been slowly building the original 302 to put back in, and it's finally ready....so, today I made the garage ready, and began pulling stuff apart. I'm kinda bummed...but am looking forward to turning wrenches on it again and having it move under its own power.

Finally got the new plastic fuel tank in, can already tell one good flex, will have to put a new longer hose from tank to the filler. I'll be prepared though, lol

Ideas for 68 restoration

Not sure if this is the right spot but I figured I would ask. Is there a forum you would suggest to get answers to some questions I have about a 68 Bronco I just bought and looking to do SOME restoration to? Not sure what the best sites are for parts. It is a blank canvas. No roll bar, top, doors, nothing. It does have those insert for the doors making the entrance area smaller. I just want to make it a worthy beach going buggy. No rock crawling. Maybe some new wheels (or should I keep it original), roll bar, soft top. Engine is fine for now. Original inline 6. Any suggestions? Need seats, a bench for the back. I'm going to sell that front bench.
Here is a youtube link for pictures: https://youtu.be/VFqdXHTwd_g

I remember seeing this one mentioned in a thread here on the site.....probably last week or in the past two weeks in the Craigslist/Ebay for sale section. Congrats on your new ride!! Oh and welcome!!

Drove it to get carry-out tonight. I can't stop smiling when I drive it. It's kinda loud, though. :)

Finally after looking at the saggy rear for so long I levered her up actually 1/2 inch high in the back. She looks happy and Im happy. That's all Ive done recently.

Got around to installing my new Warn hubs. They look and feel great (went with the premiums). I can't wait to get it off into the dirt and use them!

Drove mine all over the place yesterday but left it home today because the forecast called for rain. So far it's been a super nice day and no rain. Go figure!
