New Guy - 1978 Ford Bronco

Hello, I picked myself up a 1978 Ford Bronco. Now this Bronco isn't just any Bronco, it has a LONG story behind it. My Grandfather bought this Bronco new back in 1978, and has been his until he died recently. It was then sold with the estate, and I haven't seen it for 2-3 years. So for the past week, whenever I would go to work or school, I've seen this Bronco on 306 sitting on the road for sale, which looks exactly like my grandfathers Bronco. Every time I've seen it, I've always thought "Man that’s too much of a coincidence to be the same truck". Well my dad didn't think so, and yesterday I got a call saying that he stopped and looked at it, and it was indeed my grandfather’s truck. Needless to say, that pretty much sealed the deal of my buying the truck.

So here it is, my new 1978 Ford Bronco, 351M, 3 Speed C6 Automatic Transmission, 4 Wheel Drive, True Dual exhaust.
