Got this thing running good today. Got all the cylinders firing. Only thing it needed was a carb kit, ignition module, and the timing set. Was about a $70 dollar fix!

Nice looking bronco. How is the rust?
From the looks of it, Rob helped you go get a bronco that looks better than his :D

Yep. It is a nice rig. I just don't understand the Chevy Hugger Orange paint on a Ford....
Seriously though, it is a really nice truck and I think that Aaron got a smoking good deal on it.

Nah, it just looks like a previous owner was either a Clemson or UT fan .... and they forgot to put the white tiger paw or UT emblem on it. :icon_lol:

Well I wasn't particularly lookin for an old bronco like this but I came across it and couldn't pass up the deal. Hopefully I can get everything working on it soon. I might just sell this truck and buy something else.

Well today I got the ignition system switched over and took the sensors and crap off it. Runs like a champ. I also wet to the junkyard and got 2 new door locks, since old were punched out, smoe weather stripping and a full exhaust for $18. Got it all put on and ready to sell! only thing left is a new alternator belt... Ready to sell it and buy something new!

Made a trip to the junk yard this past weekend.. Got new emblems, new steering column and linkage, new window channel, tie rod ends, and a spare tire carrier. I put the new steering column in and tHe steering is now a lot tighter. All the new window channel in. After all the new parts I've gotten and all thing I've fixed on it I continue to see more things wrong with it. After I got it running and driveable, I took it for a drive down the road and it's starting to smoke. After the research ive done, I think it's just going to need some valve seals...
