Howdy from northern Ohio.
As you may have guessed I have a 78 Bronco in pieces stashed in the garage. Its been there for a few years, I see no reason to disturb it in the immediate future. Actually it would be more accurate to say most of it is in the garage, a few parts have found there way to the basement over the years (door, tailgate, one front hub, 460). Also in the garage are 2 Taurus SHOs, both with manual transaxle and each needs a wee-bit 'o work. It seems I have too many projects in the works to get anything finished.
Got a couple of Rangers too, the wiffie drives an '00 ex cab 4x4. Its a basic truck with the Vulcan engine and auto tranny. An '05 XL is my work truck. 4 banger with manual for good mileage and limited options on that one for sure.
Quite some time ago I had a 77 F150 4x4 so I'm no stranger to Fords or trucks. I do all my own wrenching, anything from oil changes to rebuilding an engine for one of the SHOs. When I get up the ambition I'll start asking about brake upgrades for the Rangers.
