Is [James] Duffy still in business? When he was dealing in Bronco's, was originally located in Sequim WA / But when I first met him in the mid '60's, he was the parts manager of Beverly Hills Ford.

its a good starter. a lot of easy stuff to fix, door lock slips, door handle rods, ignition switch. some wiring. what i like is that it wasnt hacked on. still has original radio and antenna. had to laugh when i saw the indash radio, that brings back memories. and to still have the antenna, well how good is that. thats worth it alone.

I am pretty sure your rear fenders/wells have been cut... otherwise they would be smaller and not have the flares.....

But you do have a awesome condition Bronco for a DD/weekender rig.

Yea the only way mine will ever be on pavement is if it falls of the trailer going to the offroad park. lol I 'd love to have a EB for a DD rig, but they are $$$ here in the midwest.

Glad you figured out the pic.

Yes, his daughter, just like Himself, moved to better pastures. She brought the company East to TN, hummm - 5 yrs ago? (don't quote me on the timing - a decade is like 1 yr to me now).
May B a similar idea? closer to a buncha yahoos (like us) who like to wrench & wheel, and closer to the trails? I don't know...
I think He and a fam member or 2 stayed in Wash. state.
Post them a "Hello!" at either address!

yeah the fenders being cut is a plus. also the lift plus a locker in the rear. no extra holes in the dash, still has original radio. going to install the new ignition switch today and see about getting the dash instruments working.
