Plans are to put the engine back together. The new oilpan has to go back on intake and crap out front. Then drive it till winter. Over the winter I'll do some rust repair. Hope to have it mobile before the end of June.

Even the tires have a bunch of wear left. I don't think they have a pile of miles on them.

I don't think this thing did any burn outs. It looks like it was quite well taken care of.

Yeah zip as i mention on FB, that is a sweet looking bronco. Though i do have a few questions. One is it suspension lift or body? It looks like a body in some pics but others i think i see longer shocks. Also what the heck is that tank under the driver side? Anywho if you guys need help with Photobucket let me know.
