Solid foundation for LUBR street rig

[Rox Crusher]

Ok, after further consideration and input from others.........I am going to start making my current rig into a more capable off roader (cut front fenders, long arms, 35" tires, body armor, soft top).

The new rig will be a LUBR resto mod much like Landshark and / or 76fordbronco.

I will be looking for a solid survivor, hopefully with original sheet metal but no engine and transmission.

Going this route will save me money in the long run but probably cost more up front to acquire the right donor. If im really lucky and patient, I think 10k will get what I want in today's market.

Let me know if you guys come across something.

I think it's a solid plan. I'll keep my eyes and ears open for a stocker or LUBR without a drivetrain.

Road trip?

Based on the thread, it sounds like there is some room for negotiation. And you could dump the drivetrain to recoup some cost.

So which rig is getting a body lift?

Oh yeah, forgot to mention 351 going in the current rig.............

I'm guessing that means body lift and maybe a hood scoop

Dunno 'bout that, it's in almost the same condition as mine, and close to the same price as I paid for mine before prices pretty much went .
Surely by current standards it must be at least a $7500 Bronco.

Looks like a good deal for a great starting point. All the extra parts along with half doors and half cab being sold could offset the roadtrip to go get it.

[Broncobsession]

Dibs on the bumpers if you get it!

[Kinder]

Geez Rox, any word, do we need to go get it?

[Rox Crusher]

Sorry guys

My work is keeping me busier than ever lately and just hardly a spare minute to fool around during the week.

Keep them coming !

[Gunnibronco]

Come on Jeff. Get your priorities straight. You just let an uncut 66 half-cab slip past you. Screw work.

LOL.

Here's a '73 (ad says '72) uncut explorer survivor. http://classicbroncos.com/forums/showth ... p?t=254067

That's a ranger interior. Houndstooth seats and door panels and side panels. The explorer's had a different pattern.

Just missed this one, I should have stayed up instead of going to sleep.

He sold it in the middle of the night

DANG! I'll quit looking for bargains and set the filters for 15k+!!!

Do we want to know what it sold for?

[Rox Crusher]

I would have loved to get that one for 15k

He says he got 21k for it

I would have to do some financial shucking and jiving to swing that kind of dough at the moment.......but for the right one for the right deal I could / would

Gonna take my time though

[mickphatmac]

Here you go ROX!!!
Better start moving money!!!
