D&D72 ....
Picked up my 72 a couple months ago. So far I replaced the main gas tank, rebuilt the stock 2bbl and have just been driving it. I have picked up some needed parts from 777mech and zillacon thanks to both of you! No resto planned but, mods as I can with what I got. Looking forward to meeting people in this fine establishment!

Re: Another new guy....
Are you located on Paris st in Henderson? I put a card in the door of a Bronco that looks just like that.

Re: Another new guy....

Re: D&D72 ....
So after much waiting.... waiting and more waiting the bronco is finally back from paint. I have a lot of work to do putting it back together. the doors and fenders are hung temporarily for the transport home. overall its looking pretty good. The 5.0 I salvaged from a 97 explorer is a roller with GT40 heads. everthing was saved from the explorer and I will use the explorer computer and harness. Garry (EFIguy) is taking care of the upgrades for me. I also have a viper c-4 and d20 with all the goodies and a column I snagged from kinder. so, after a trip to the hut tomorrow the fun begins.

Re: D&D72 ....
I have no real time line for the EFI portion. Right now I just want to get the body back together and drive around a bit. Tomorrow I'm going to the Hut to pick up my new bumper and weather stripping.

Re: D&D72 ....
I'm working this weekend too Rob. But, your always welcome to stop by. usually home by 3. got all the weather stripping and a few other things today. putting the grill and doors back together. Also picked up a protofab rock solid rear bumper. was thinking of powder coating it but maybe just paint it instead. any thoughts on that?
