That is a nice year.
I would like a last year of the round headlights bronco. No i am not sure what year that is.
When i was a young man my fav aunt had a bronco and used to drive me around some in it.
Liked them ever since.
I want an el camino also.
The vehicle i should never have sold and still want back is my 2004 dodge srt 10.

It is a nice year. They made that model for two years only. The last of the round headlights would have been 77. I had a 66 when I got married. It was pretty rough but it was way cool. I sold it when we moved to Alberta.

I've finished my truck last year and then the engine went on me at start of this year, I already have an engine sourced for it but need to find a 5spd trans to go behind it, a 302.

I work on my friends stuff alot, and we currently have a project for sale, I am posting it here because the for sale thread is dead and I think more people will see it here. 77 hiboy crewcab shortbox frame

Changed the end on the block heater cord, fiddled with some bulbs and cleaned out the mouse nest from the heat ducting. It was packed tight behind the blower motor, and I mean tight. Get a little bit of defrost now.
