the fence im walking is selling my bronco. i know...stupid right??
but heres the deal...all i can think about is beginning to build my slammed bronco, turbo'd LS 450 horses of wheelie. the damn problem is the same as its always been....no money! for what its worth...i dont have the same feelings like i had for my fat bottom girl. i hate having to dial things back, because i have to drive it everywhere and wheel it softly or risk breaking. i dont want to put anymore money in the 4x4...id rather start this other project. there are so many good parts on the 4x4, selling it might give me what i need to completing the dropped bronco. if i keep it, the very best i could do is maybe in 6 months...afford the mustang II front suspension and maybe the rear 4 link kit...but that would be it. just a frame with suspension, and a motor...no trans, rear axle, body, wheels and tires...nothing else.
