Oh that's right your the guy that is having issues with the auto trans when it's still cold. Sorry I have mostly been on mobile and I thought your username was familiar but I never connected the dots until I got back on my computer now.
Yeah that's a nice rig man. If you take care of these trucks they last a long time, I have about 227,000 miles on mine.

Are you planning on keeping it stock? Or modifying it at all? I've been thinking of possibly putting larger tires on mine but I wouldn't mind keeping it stock either, which I will probably do.

I'm not sure of the miles as it only has a 5 digit odometer. It reads 32000 now and I'm sure its rolled over at least once... Here in SC when a vehicle reaches a certain age they become exempt. I think it will stay pretty much stock. Maybe some wider tires and wheels. I like the look of the black American Racing steel wheel with the chrome rings (link below) but the size will stay about the same.

Ugly but neat

Here is our ugly 1984 Ford Bronco II (2) it was spray painted badly. It has a manual tranny 4x4 2.8L V6. I am repairing it to stock. It needs a shifter and shifter housing and new wheels.

I do have the front bumper just frame needs straightened. What do you expect for $800.

I have a rear pic but won't let me upload it sorry. It pretty much looks like the rest of the Bronco

Good lookin trucks.

Pic's of Old Blue my 84 v-8 at: New Page 0

Old Blue and Jr. both had rattle can paint jobs. Makes it easy to take care o them trail pin stripes.

Good pic of Jr. in February 2012's Off Road magazine I received yesterday. I'll post a link soon as it it's on line. Could be a week ur three.

Been into these trucks for a long time.

My first one, 1989, went through many different stages. Here it is with cut fenders and 34s. Don't remember how much lift.



No pics of second one. Was for parts.
3rd one. 1984, picked up for $400. Rebuilt motor and trans, sold and started swapping in a 302. Eventually scrapped.
Best I can find.



My current project. 1984. Fuel injected 302 HO from mustang. Getting axles prepped for a solid axle swap.

I have had 2 Bronco II's. The first was an '88 that I purchased in 1992. My first nice ride out of college. Wish I had a photo. It was all Black with green pin stripping...very sharp. Got rid of it in 1997 for a Nissan Pathfinder. Then I got engaged in 1998 and the Pathfinder became hers. Got another '88 Bro II and got rid of it in 2000 for a Grand Cherokee.

Those were great little trucks! Miss mine.
