Bumpside Bronco

Hey guys,


I'm usually in the Bullnose and Bronco section but I came across this, and thought you guys would find it interesting. Someone on Fordification started building one in 2011, but stopped posting in 2012.


1969 FS Bronco - The FORDification.com Forums





And I came across this on craigslist


f1oo bronco custom / bumpside bronco





I think it's pretty cool , what do you think?

I would love to have one. I think a great project would be to turn an old unibody into a Bronco.

Chop, cut, weld, and rebuild. If 78/79s were smog exempt in CA I'd be all over 'em.

I didn't see the first one before but the second one had been posted on the forum numerous times. I like my big bronco's as you can tell by my user name. I would love to do z bumpside bronco one day it's on my long list of builds. Many will just be dreams that I'll never get to do then there's the ones that will be done. Maybe I'll push it up towards the top of the list. To much stuff to little time. I been driving a 79 bronco here and there lately thinking about getting it. It was offered to me for a grand. since my daily driver took a crap last week. I need something couldn't come at a better time.

I so like that Bump Bronco . couldn't you get around the smog by registering it as the Bump not the 79 ? But I swear it's modified 68 F100 !!

When I 1st saw this thread You came to mind. Get that 79 and PLEASE build a Bump Bronco. I really liked my 95 Bronco but the 79 much better.

I wish I had the money to build one. Don't have to worry about smog in Minnesota, and can do anything I want.
