71 Bronco

Well got a pretty good deal on it, yea its ROUGH, but complete. Starts, drives and stops.

71 Bronco with a 302/C-4 swapped in with shorty headers. Edelbrock intake, 4 bbl 35x14.50x15 Super Swamper Boggers on bead locks, with a new spare on a bead lock rim.

Has had the front brakes changed to disk and power steering came with the 302 swap, I believe? Also a full size Ford truck steering box? 6 pt roll bar, factory rear seat.

Bikini top with front RCI seats, lexan front windshield, fiberglass cowl hood, new aluminum radiator with elec fan, twin Hurst shifters, power brakes (not sure if they are factory?)

Warn hubs, new starter, all the lights ect work, came with a key and a clear title, so where to start?

Nightmare electric mess under the hood, fix shifter (cables in a bind) rebuild carb or swap it. Mount front seats, tune up, finish exhaust, remove doors, give it a dose of major TLC.

A mess of rust and elec wiring on the fenderwell, tread plate floor pans. Use to be a 6 cly 3 spd, how about that clutch/brake plate job? lol. Quadrajet carb is junk

No radio or glove box lid, hole in the floor to drop your beer cans? How about that throttle linkage spring? LMAO

Custom tree modified front fender (see first set of pics,dvrs side), but its got potential.

Ah come on dude, it AINT PINK, its faded, weathered, showing its age, it supports breast cancer what ever.... been to hell and back.

Yea it need alot work, the last PO was a kid with NO idea, and the PPO was a idiot.
But at least it has this on the grill, FORD.

I need to get with some other EB folks and get some help, its got some serious wiring issues to say the least.

Maybe I can buff it back to red ?

If its that bad I would just start over, is it traill only or do you want lights for the road.

You only need like 3 wires to make the engine run, a few gauge wires, One big alt to run the Off road lights and a winch. Got a pic on how to wire a 3g alt too

I am looking at a trail rig only unless I can get it pavement worthy? But trail is fine by me, I like temp, oil press, fuel gauge, heater, tune box.

Night wheeling lights and yea a winch some day. It just has a lot of ???xtra/cobbled up mess under there, I want to clean it up.
