View Full Version : My 71 Bronco (not Johnny's)
Several months ago we got a couple EB's off of Bill , the blue 68 was going to be fixed up for me to drive, but we realized the body was too far gone.
Here it is with the 71 we got also at Bill's

After we decided it was too far gone, and we could get another one for the price we would pay for just the body work alone, we started looking for another one for me. After looking around we came across this one.

So now we have work to do on this one. So far we have a engine out of a 92 mustang, and a AOD, that we are going to rebuild. Once that is done and in the truck, we are going to start on the body. There isn't much body work to do, the fenders need fixed where someone cut them in the front, change grills, and then get it painted. I really want it light blue (not sure the exact name, but it looks good on EB's) but I don't want it to look like Bill's truck, unless he wants to change his color. So I will probably go with competition orange with black accents. Then the interior, we are going to update the dash, gauges, and panel layout. As well as adding power windows, power doorlocks, AC. Have to have all that. We are keeping the wheels and tires that are on it. Hopefully it will be done by Summer, or before it is over. I can't wait for it to be done. Johnny is trying to talk me out of it, he likes it too. So I will be building my first engine soon, that is scary.

Sweet.
engines are easy you will do fine.
I am currently looking for a e b myself. Yeah Laura knows it.
I am looking forward to it. When it is done I will be able to say I helped build my Bronco. I just wish it was already done.

Lisa did you have to drive the loaded trailer home? I know Johnny has a tough time getting around in a truck with a trailer behind it.
YOUR EB looks nice to. I think I saw him over on another forum claiming it was his.>M<:

Is that Bill there standing around with his hands in his pockets?
Johnny

No that's his brother Matt... I think thats Bill's arm you can see leaning on the truck....
Yeah, the blue EB is mine now..... I'm pulling the engine/trans/t-case out of it this weekend, and doing the same with her new 71... then I'm going to set her 302, 435, and Dana 20 in the blue 68 and wheel it until I get the white one built(which will be awhile).... then I think my oldest is going to take it.....
