You know you found a nice one when...every single body panel is BENT*

* Except for the tailgate and one door!!!!! Wow some 'ingenious' fixes here!!!
I'll post my "nice one".....bought Christmas Eve and brought home Yesterday!
Many may remember these pics about a year ago on something about roll cages/bars.....if they are needed!



Well after meeting the wrecked Bronco's owner and talking with him for a year, he sells me his 'pride and joy'. This was an exceptionally clean daily driven Bronco that was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago. The Bronco runs and drives great, we just had to remove the top and door frames to get in the drivers seat!!!! All this Bronco needs is a complete "Skin Graft".....ie a donor tub!!:-[:-[

Most of that will buff out. Dont you still have the 68 body?

Yea.....Bax...flame polish with a torch right.....Yes, I have the early tub, but what's better, I have a good uncut '77 that is just a frame and body. I robbed the rear axle, rear fuel tank, and some other parts a few years ago. Before I found it, someone had stole the engine, steering sector, trans, transfer case and front axle. The body needs front floor pans and the swing-a-way spare mounts on the corner of the body have contacted a tree and damaged the tailight section, but other wise pretty good. I have the intention to "Save Another One!"

besides the wooden floor boards, this is what was holding the door hings from falling off%) yes it's a 1x4

 

[fordfan]

It looks like a GOOD, Solid 1"x4"!;D

Wow fordfan, I thought I was the only one dealing in roll-overs!!! Mine didn't have any running gear, a good door or tailgate!!!! It had a 44 but the guy wanted it back!!!

 

[jmhend]

How about all thread rods and double blocks on the 9", then there's the glad-loc fuse box and the one of a kind cup holders!!!!%)%)%)

Love the cup holders.

Had a 66 I sold to Rob in Central Florida, floor boards from tailgate(missing) to firewall were pressure treated 1x6 deckboards.

Wish I hadn't sold it now.

You keeping the frame?

 

[fordfan]

I'm not sure...... Do you need a frame? the '77 frame is a little different where the rear tank fastens....what year frame do you need?

Hold it a minute Ben................... I know what's going on. Your S T R E T C H I N G it, right!!!!! Hey, When you were building that '77 body a few months ago, you built and extra one, didn't you.....I think I remember it was full fendered too!!!

What's better is Me getting the 68 tub from you, and you saving the 77.

Well I am ashamed to say I didn't fix it till yesterday but what about the ground running from the battery to the headers

I didn't think your ground was supposed to be hot. I know I know. Had to do it.

Or it could come with its own fully enclosed exoskeleton that has been welded to the frame all the way around. The steel I cut off this thing weighed over 700 pounds. The rear springs were almost flat. Whoever welded this was pretty good though. The top hunting platform folded down and locked into place on the rear bumper. The front bumper extended out about three feet and weighed over 200 pounds by itself. Was designed to hold two boat seats for hunters to sit in while they drove around the ranch.

Yeah, it will be used for hunting, but not this way. This one's destined to be a half cab if I can find a good top.
