Bronco talk... - blazinchuck - 03-24-2008
Alright, so now we have the site. But, if there is no new questions,advice,suggestions...no one will want to come back. The site is new, but we are here for the common goal-(get a bronco, upgrade a bronco, rebuild a bronco, wheel a bronco,be the 1st to try something on a bronco) what ever it is...it all starts with this site. We need to bring the builds,restoring projects,modifying, customizing, to our Tech forum. People are coming here for some insight, some "how-to", the knowledge we have already learned and are willing to pass on for others to enjoy. In order for guest to see new post, new threads,...we have to be posting them. Show me what yall are capable of...we have the best of the best on this site:thefinger: Now lets show'um!

Here's a few shots of mine through the years.
1. First '74 I bought - aka PILE OF RUST!!! Bought it from a guy in Columbia. I'll admit it - he took me for all I was worth. I was young and he got me, but it gave me the FEVER to keep on working on them. This pic was in Tellico - I actually drove it there, wheeled the heck out of it (open diffs), and drove it home. This pic was Thanksgiving weekend 1999.
I don't have any resto pics scanned - the days of 35 mm. I'll have to do that and post some up. We swapped a '73 body onto that '74 chassis.
2. This is Tellico after the resto. I actually leaned it on it's side that weekend (another Thanksgiving weekend trip), but only suffered a cracked fender flare and dent in the lower rear corner - both still there!
3. I think the truck looks better with hard top and doors, but love the open air too much to put them back on!
4. Doors and bikini top at the 40th anniversary in Knoxville. By this time I've added a homeade front bumper, cage, Bestop seats, and rock sliders.
5. A random pic - still has old bumper and no rock skis. I think this was right after I installed the gears and lockers and I was playing around seeing how much of a difference I could tell. Now I wouldn't go wheeling without them!
I'll try to get some pictures of the resto scanned and post them up too.

Good story. We didn't get to talk about all that. Sounds like your bronco has come a long way!
