I haven't been around too awful much lately, but I still have the Bronco's and have been doing some things to them. Filly had some body work done to her and some paint laid down. Then I had the free wheeling stickers I bought a few years ago put on. While she is not done on the outside yet I figured I'd share with you where I am at thus far.
I'm still surprised by how good those free-wheelin' decals look over a white rig.
and the turbines... classic, all the way around man. I'm sure Filly would be proud. :beer
don't be such a stranger... well, don't be any stranger than you already are? :goodfinge
nice to see ya bud and love the progress. :thumbup
The replacement underhood harness for the '93 EB came in last night. I'll take it out to the shop after work. First things first, I've got to finish some work on the back doors on the new house. I have a rather large black lab. Can't move in until I get him a dog door built. Existing french doors were all glass. Replacements with SMALL dog doors were over $2K not even installed. Bought a $160 wood half lite door and made it fit. I hate woodworking. :banghead
Now that it's primed, gotta pull it off again and cut / install the dog door. After that's done, I'm going to hook up the replacement harness, throw a battery in it and see if anything works. Hoping the tailgate / window works on the '93 that would be nice. Once I'm finally all the way moved into the new house - hopefully this weekend - I'll trailer over my compressor, my other toolbox and the rest of garage / shop stuff. That way I can get some Bronco work in later at night before bed.
Fixed my vacuum leak
Now all my vents work proper.
My line was so brittle it just crumbled when touched.
Found the tube to repair it laying on my garage floor, perfect fit and length.
Went outside to start reattaching all of the rear plastic interior trim pieces around the inside of the topper, since they are all painted in a fresh coat of satin beige. Then...drip, drip.....well, the rain got me again. Maybe it’ll pass.
Yesterday my back glass malfunctioned on me. It started down but it got crossed and started off the track. I got it down today and found the the rivets that hold the spacer sets and teh channel runs to the glass let go on me. I knew this was probably going to happen when I put them in, but I tried them out anyway. Lesson: go with your gut, if it feels wrong dont do it.
I replaced the rivets with 4mm socket cap screws and lock nuts. The screws threaded into the spacer sets nicely and now I know the back glass is solid.
Top is finally finished. Got it up to 74 with no issues. Might need to snug up the sides a hair but other than that it's good. Time to start on the tonneau cover.
well, I was going to say I did some pretty big stuff... but then I read today's posts and I'm just going to slink back to my little long block thread now. :brownbag

I sent Judi an email with the same photos and she was blown away (her words). Couldn't believe that was the Bronco she sold me. Very happy that I've taken such good care of it and used it. Her and Bill are doing well and states the other '78 they have is still up and running.
Didn't "do" anything per say, but I did get a FedEx drop with the right valve oil seals. Rock Auto for the win! Will be bolting the heads to the block tomorrow. :thumbup
Drove the '94 to the Cadillac dealer and leased a CT6 w/Super Cruise. I may have to thin the Bronco herd, but for now I have a place to park the '96. :crying:
Dad sold his fishing boat and wants to buy a welder for me/us. The $400 he gave the boat away for will only get us into a used, name brand or cheap Harbor Freight welder but that won't weld up much more than thin sheet metal. I've lost a lot of time and a good bit of money over the last few...
Well, tax time is coming up and I'm looking to spend some of my tax return on some minor upgrades to my Bronco. (no name yet). I was wondering what sort of good ideas I can keep an eye out for in the junkyard.
So far, I've got my eye out for a new center console and a roof rack, but I'm open...
I suppose I'll get this rolling! Who wants to do another FSB Invasion?
Key topics in this thread will be whether we want to do Bronco Safari again or not. The 2020 Bronco Safari is April 28th through May 2nd.
If not, have a suggestion of an event. Preferably not on a coast, so travel time is...
Well, it's been 2 years now since my Bronco had the electrical failure on it's way back home after discovering the Transmission shop did a less than proper job on it. I've just not had the time to dig under the hood and trace down where the smoke came from. I suspect it was the ECM since it...
