new bronco ownership

Well I just purchased a 1995 Bronco. I buy vehicles all the time and fix them up. This one needs a front bumper and fender. Other than that it is clean. No rust and the leather is in good shape. It has the 5.8 in it so thats good. If I could figure out how to post pics I would. I came over from the 6.0 powerstroke forum. Anyway I will be posting things here and there I am sure. Update I just put a picture in my album. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Welcome to the forum. You can use third party sites like Photobucket to post pics here.

I'm going to pick up a front bumper, right fender, and right headlight 2marrow. Thats all I see this thing needs. Pretty impressed.

Good luck with the Bronco. I got a 93 that had been sitting a while! Was told "Oh, it just sat for a little over a year." Later, after $600 changed hands.....I found out it sat for OVER 3 years! I've changed A LOT since I acquired it....some I knew it was going to need.....some, I wasn't expecting!! Now I have it my garage on jack stands, pulling the transmission and saving for it! (Another repair I wasn't expecting!!) Be prepared if it has been sitting for a period of time. Also, be careful with the airbag from a front end collision...I've had them POP after the fact!!

Ok thanks for the heads up. I buy about 15 vehicles a year and rebuild them. Usually they are newer ones and I like to stick to powerstrokes. But I seen this one and thought it would be cool to rebuild. Its only been sitting for 2 months and it was really taken care of.
