Our new 78 Bronco!

Congrats on the new bronco. I would love to have one like that, but my wife would probably divorce me if I brought another project home lol.

True choices and options...

That is a very nice Bronco. One thing perhaps a lot of folks do not think much about is that vehicles of this vintage truly had choices / options that just do not exist today. Foremost among them were the interior color options. For about the past 15 years if you bought a new vehicle you could have your choice of color - as long as all you wanted was a shade of gray or tan. I do like that deep green in your Bronco. Congrats!

Nice buy. Bought mine over three years ago for $1,000 probably managed to put 2K more into it by now (more like 5k including Bronco feed.) And at 3k yours looks at least as good or better already. I just never have more than 1000 dollars on hand before i am itching to buy more projects XP
Great find though wish i had the standard 4 speed.

Yep...the 4 speed is what I wanted! The dream would have been 300/I-6 and 4 speed,,, but I'll take the 351Measly,,,it's a good engine .
