New member build thread...
This is my 2012 Bronco trapped in a 1978 body. In Feb. 2012 i decided it was time to rebuild the ole boy. As always i started off with the mechanical, cause great looking trucks look ridiculous on the side of the road with the hood up and hazards on. 
I dropped a 480HP 460 in it, attached it to a freshly rebuilt C6 and NP205. Completely rebuilt both axles (9" rear/ Dana 44 front), all new everything. The only thing original now is the body, frame, and interior. This was going to be a show truck for the truck club me and my boys were going to try to start here in AZ, but the economy tanked and now i never have a spare nickel. I will add more pics as the project comes along, and i enjoy looking at the other builds on here for ideas.
It had four diff sized tires and white 8 spokes on it when i bought it, so we threw these horrible 17s on it to drive it around. Can't beat free;-)
