1978/79 Bronco for sale
We are selling a 1978/79 Bronco that we bought as a project to be assembled. It was 80% complete when we bought it. The guy we bought it from did a complete frame off resto in his oversized garage. He is a body man and did all of the body work himself which there was very little work to be done other than filling in the trim holes and smoothing them over. He painted the entire truck in and out yellow(the same color of Jeff Gordon's number 24. or the same color as this face. 
). He had the frame beadblasted and painted with Emron which he said is the same paint they paint the frames of semi-trucks. He said that you could take a hammer to it and would not chip the paint. What we had to do is have both the front and rear axles overhauled by Roland Powertrain off of beaver st. By the way, the rear axle has a trak-lok differential. We also rebuilt the brakes and put new calipers on the front and new drums on the rear. The guy was building it for show and made a custom dash for it similar to a dash from a Nascar except that there is a speedometer. It also has a lift off fiberglass hood though it is not installed. It is just setting on the truck. We have the hood pens that hold it on. They just need to be installed. We were thinking about getting a steel hood for it but it never materialized. The transmission was built by Alvie's Transmission which is off of main st. just before the trout river bridge. He built it with a race shift kit. It still needs some work and if I could afford it I would finish it myself but I cannot afford to pay my dad back what he paid for it. He wants 4000 for the whole thing.If we finish the assembly of it then put it up for sale he said the price will go up from what he is asking now. We have had this truck sence November 2002 and it has changed hands twice. If anyone is interested just let me know and I will email some pics to you if you want to see what it looks like.

The way I see it if it is a Ford of any type (and if you are a minor and your parents give the ok) There is no problem. The chapter should not make any differents on who you are( guy,girl,green purple blue etc. I would like to just get together with other Ford folks and have a good time. And maybe learn a thing or two. And maybe pass some info on my self. (Which aint much) Ha So how would eveyone like to get this started? Any ideas??????????????/
