Love the Vintage Bronco. We had a '68 in high school, then traded it in for a '72, which my brother took to college in 1973. His nickname was Bronco, and mine, therefore, was Little Bronco. My brother was killed in a single engine plane crash in MT on 1987, so in memory of our childhood, I bought a '77 Bronco in 1988 in Tuscaloosa, AL. I still have it and cherish it eventhough the years have been tough on it. A classic memory.
My later brother bought a brand new Bronco off of the lot in 1971 for if I remember right, $2800.00 or less! It had a 302, and a 3 speed transmission. He drove it awhile, did some off roading, then swapped the 3 speed out for a F-150 4 speed with granny gear. It was featured in 4 Wheeler magazine with an article my brother wrote on how to swap the tranny step by step. It was in the 1980s when the story was featured. I used to have a copy of the magazine he gave me but was lost years ago. My older sister still has her copy. The featured article was titled; “Can’t Slow That Bronco Down”. Later he added a roll bar, a little lift and larger tires and wheels. He kept it until his death in 2011 and his widow sold it to my brothers best friend in 2014 for an undisclosed amount. The Bronco still had the original light blue paint and white top, barely faded and when I last saw it in 2013 it was just beginning to have surface rust where the body panels joined.
A video series of that Mustang being restored would be awesome! Everyone loves a good restoration and Hillbilly's excitement would definitely be something to see.
@tjaxon3063 Windsor heads for torque, and yes, that is the 1970's correct big dog conversion. The Dana transfer case will take it if you don't get crazy on the build.
She is a real sweetheart. She deserves that bronco, and if she wants it pink then you should paint it pink for her everything she does for you guys in the shop you shouldn’t even think twice of what she wants done on the truck. Can’t wait to see the upcoming videos on restoring that bronco have a happy Thanksgiving to all of you.
The early Bronco is the coolest 4x4 ever built. That's why I have a 73 parked in my garage. And I do happen to have an original spare tire carrier for you Demri 🤘and I'm here in Sandy.
Congratulations Boss! Demri is the voice of reason, the comic relief, the mom of our favorite joke teller, and a great videographer. Im excited to see the evolution of Broncto-Bismol. 🤗
Yeah. Not a nice way to say this - she is my favorite of all the significant others in this world of offroad recovery channels. Like Mara with BSF also.
Demri is a princess and half of what makes Robby successful. It has been fun watching you two grow together. Further, Hillbilly needs the Mustang. Can we come up with a plan to help him get it?
That thing is awesome, it’s in incredible condition. You should pick that Mustang up too even if it’s just to flip. A ‘69 fastback sitting in the desert in that good of shape is a dream situation for a lot Mustang guys and there’s lot’s of flippers out the looking for just that. I’d venture to say there’s probably a few people screaming at their screens telling you to buy it too. You don’t find solid, dry cars like that everyday!
I like that purple on Jorge's Bronco. Good to see you found such a solid Bronco for Demri. Too bad it's going to become pink, but she deserves it to be however she wants it.
71 Bronco is way cool. Getting past any special meaning the year may or may not have: 74 is regarded by many as the pinnacle of early broncos because it has a better steering linkage setup than previous years, and is still pre-smog, which is a concern in many areas. Both the purple Bronco and this one have been cut out at the rear fenders. Stock, the rear opening was much smaller and car-like, limiting the stock tire size to 31". A really cool option was in 1976: the Sport had an oyster color interior, factory dual tanks and roll bar. Another option for a front roll bar hoop to clear the glovebox is to run flat steel uprights instead of tube, which allows for clearance of the glovebox and doors and getting in and out easier. Stock, the optional 302 with 3 speed column shift (three on the tree) could pull the front wheels off the ground! The 302 is an excellent off-road engine, with a wide power band, capable of high RPMs and excellent low end torque. The 302 was a popular Jeep CJ swap back in the day too. A modern EFI like a Holley Sniper can really wake the small block up and give amazing performance, economy and reliability. I'm just an old guy who remembers these rigs being common and inexpensive when I was young. Excellent vehicles with stellar performance potential while still being stable and safe for hauling the kids around! Solid axles front and rear, leaf spring rear and coil front suspension, available disc brakes (before they were standard equipment!) and still huge aftermarket support: with companies like Jeff's Bronco Graveyard and other enthusiast companies, you can build an entirely new Bronco from catalog parts! Looking forward to this build!! Old Sasquatch LOVES early Broncos!! I've owned several second (78/79) and a fourth generation (91) Broncos, and a 1976 Sport with the 302 and 3 speed. Any of the Broncos could run circles around my old 86 CJ7!! Enjoy!!!
I am currently getting my '76 back on the road. My parents bought it brand new, I drove it in the late 80's and early 90's, it has been in storage ever since '96'. Look forward to this build.
We have a 68 Bronco that we got from the original owner in 1981 and one thing we have learned over the years there is not one thing you can’t find from Wild Horses or Tom’s Broncos as we request updated catalogs online all the time to keep our options available. These Broncos are the best. ❤
Robby, you have to thank International Scout and Jeep for the introduction of the Ford Bronco. The Scout is still in use in Australia, and has a number of owners there. I owned a '64. The nice thing about the drive line is some of the parts are common on all three vehicles, like axles, transmissions and transfer cases, which are all made by Dana Corporation. Obviously, there are a few differences in the axles, as Ford used coil springs, and the other two used leaf springs.
I can see this Bronco in dark pink with a white top and side flares! Real retro! I am so glad for the boss, you guys rock to make this work for her! She’s a great mom and wife and videographer, editor, and one who holds things together. She deserves it!
Congratulations! Welcome to the Bronco family! Personally I can deal with the pink a lot more than doing an LS swap. A coyote or Godzilla would be amazing under the hood!
Hot pink upholstery with white piping and white bronco stitched in it. Roll bars like the new bronco with bottle opener it it for vintage soda,with a old vintage cooler stripped and painted to match. Better engineered hood tie down fins. Automatic rock slider/step ups. Maybe Ford can get a then and now build going with you. Yours being the old and Ford doing the new. Yankum Ropes and others can sponsor some stuff. Those would be some epic episodes for this build. So excited!
Just my .02 I think the 347 c.i.d. is a wicked combo in the classic bronco. Fits easily, no crazy adapters, no crazy brake booster, no crazy wiring, just a simple bolt in good for plenty of power.
Congratulations Demri ,I know you can't wait to see it done and drive it. I know Robby and the Crew are gonna make it very nice for you. Thanks for taking us along.
Great to see Demri getting her dream car.I also really hope Hillbilly can get that Mustang because to see a rebuild on that would be really good for all of you.
Welcome to the Bronco family! If you need any help or have any questions please reach out. I finished my 1971 a few years back with my son and enjoyed every minute of the full restoration. Too bad it is cut up, look at the uncut and see what Demri likes better! Can't wait to watch this one being built!
Congratulations Demri on your new toy. I can't wait to see the build on your Bronco. So glad you got your Dream truck. Hopefully we will see you working on it also. Hope Hillbilly gets that Mustang also.
Keep the engine a Ford product, definitely! I bet it is going to look amazing when you get done with it. If you could get the Mustang, it would be an awesome project.
You will love your new to you bronco. I had a 1968 half cab with a 289 in it and that little bronco was a billy goat. It would go anywhere I pointed it. Wish I still had it. Don’t over power it they aren’t really race cars.
I second Hillbilly on dropping a coyote in it. With vehicles, organ transplants are best kept within the family. That way Demri won't need to add a pint of Berryman's anti-rejection formula to the fuel every other time she fills up. Otherwise, that Chevy LS would try to jump out of there every time someone pops the hood. And that would be Bad. Excellent find, and I'm sure Demri will be thrilled with it when it's done.
That Bronco is gonna look sweet! I agree with Hillbilly tho........need to keep it original and put a Ford motor in it. Thank you for sharing and congratulations Demri
I first want to say I love the pink. Several years ago I saw an episode of counting cars where they painted a 50's wagon pink with a white accent stripe. I loved it. It had a nice white interior. I could see that on this bronco.
I've had a few Bronco's and that one is in nice shape. My son now owns the one I bought from my dad. It sorely needs some rust repair/new door posts and a new cowl but we still wheel the heck out of it. He has installed a Duff's long radius arms and Duff's four link rear and it rides so nice on and off road. Good luck Demri
I am looking forward to the ideas you guys come up with for the lovely Boss's new bronco. There wasn't a doubt in my mind the boss would win she definitely deserves it. I hope that you will have the boss working with you on the bronco since it is hers.
Go get it yourself, take us along for the ride, and pick up that Mustang while you’re there. That’d be an unbelievable build! The Boss can work on the Bronco, and Hillbilly can work on the Mustang.
I can’t wait to see you build that lovely lady the car of her dreams. Those fender flares are not “factory” but they were a common modification and they usually cracked easily. The Bronco came with either an automatic or three on the tree and that might have been the original steering column resting on top of the hardtop but I couldn’t see it well enough. I had a ‘75 back in the day and although I’ve had 4X4s ever since, it was the best by far even without lockers.
You found the only two fords that I would own, at the same place that is awesome. Looking forward to the build on the Bronco, Hopefully Hillbilly was able to buy the Mustang that would also be a great build. I always enjoy your content, keep up the good work.
She does know how much smaller the bronco is compared to the chevy blazer right? Both great, but different. Bronco was small like a jeep and had the folding windshield like one. Blazer is a shorter version of the suburban/pickups of the time
My biggest regret in life is selling my 70 Sport Bronco when I lost interest in every thing after my dad passed away. It was an original uncut and complete. To answer your question they didn’t come with rear flares originally al had low wheel arches in the rear. The tops were all Wimbledon White too
As an owner of two 1972 Blazer‘s, that is my first choice. But the bronco has always been a fun and great vehicle. I like that there’s no window frames on the doors of the Blazer when the top is off and think it looks better. My Blazer never has the top on. If it’s truly hers, I’m OK with pink! A later model, 302 fuel injected, is an easy swap and very dependable. The coyote brings it to another level.
In 67 or 68, the window frame on the broncos was removable. I can't remember for sure if it was 67 or 68, but those doors are super rare. It was a one year option.
The Re-Sell value of a Bronco with a Coyote Engine, is off the charts. You place an Chevy LS and now you've limited who your buyers would be. You can say Oh I'm not selling it, We're not flipping it. Doesn't matter, 5-8 Years down the road you might change your mind.
I swear not only are you a Mopar guy but I like you more & more every time you “F” with hillbilly about fords bahahahaha I had to pause the video when you said yuk at the mustang I was laughing so hard lol but I am a bronco fan thanks to my wife lol great job and congrats on the new ride keep it up man I honestly think you’re one of the hardest working guys on youtube !
The early Bronco's have small wheelwell openings in the back. A lot of people bought Bushwacker flares and cut the quarters. It's kind of rare to see an uncut Bronco but it does limit your tire size.
My first car was a 1970 Bronco - the 2 door "SUV" (although we didn't have that term yet). I was in high school in the 90's, so it was already a very cool and unique car. What a fun project!!!! I kick myself to this day that I sold it for $2000 and bought a 1981 VW Rabbit (ugh)
Thing about the 2nd Bronco, is you can build it what ever way the Boss wants it (as you said it’s a blank canvas). It would have been a shame to repaint the purple Bronco. And hopefully Hillbilly gets the Stang, vroom vroom
Hey boss girl. Don't let them guys give you any crap about Fords. I owned a 68 Bronco for 45 years. When I live in northern Cal. It was stuck when I got it. Can you think I did do it was cut the fender put flares on it . Put some Armstrong true tracks 33 * 8 watch programs put a roll bar in it later brush guard. Put a brand new rebuilt in it high performance 289 with headers. 3 on the tree . It would make those back wheels bark and smoke. My cousin had a 72. With the 302 also a 3-speed. I don't know how many times I had to go pull him out at 3:00 in the morning. Brought it back to Missouri. Sold it 3 years ago.😢😢. My four kids grew up in that thing. Do you have three reasons of not working I had to get rid of it. And that they would go anywhere and everywhere. Sit back then we didn't have all that lift kit Jive bull crap what they have now. Well some of it there was. And then add the Chrome strip all the way around. Mine did not come with a back seat. The guy used it for taking bales of hay to his cattle. And you just had the top. The spare tire holder did not come with a swinging spare tire spare tire Ashley latch to the tailgate on the inside. But I found a swing in the original spare tire holder not put it on there. In my windshield did fold and sit on the hood. I had to remove is too long screws they were on the dash with the Chrome knob. After you took the top off to lay it down on the hood. Good luck to you girl... And yes all of my vehicles have been Ford and the GMS model well they broke down . They took a you know what. And I am a hell of a lot older than Robbie. Old school. 50s. Early.🤜🏽💥🤛🏽. Get you some of that. Girl you rock now. Just don't paint it pink. If you lived in Southern California on the beach that's different .🤟🏽🤙🏾👍🏽🤗😘😊😎🙋🏽♂️🥂🍾🎸. Mine was red and white.
Yeah for Da Boss !!! That would look Awesome same paint pattern but Pink & White. Hillbilly, that Rustang would look good with Fred's engine in it Ty for taking us along
Back in the '80s I helped run a fleet of 80 vehicles for an engineering firm. Vehicle #1 was a '71 Bronco, 302, 3-on-the-tree. Best vehicle ever. Vehicle #6 was a '76 with the factory fender flares. Both were just awesome off-roaders.
Nice find! That Bronco will be a great platform for resurrecting. This will be fun to watch. Congrats Boss! Funny how that Mustang has collision damage at the same place my brother's 1970 Mustang project does.
Our 61 Scout Pickup had a U bolt in the middle of the hood that the windshield would clip to when folded down. Land Rovers also had fold down windscreens.
I know this probably won't be your first second or even third option for the engine in the Bronco. But, would you consider a 289 high performance. They were great engines in their day. Plus, I believe You can now obtain efi for them. Just a thought. Love your videos keep them rolling.
Good luck trying to shoehorn a Coyote in that Bronco! Why not throw in a crate performance 351. Same block as the old 302 that came with it, and a lot of performance options without all the surgery.
Genius find! I've never seen one this clean. I'm in Canada so it's impossible to find this SUV in any shape but too far gone! Can't wait to see where you take this in terms of engin mods, tires flares. It might look incredible in the Pink Cysler used Panther Pink / Moulan Rouge M3 code I belive. It's a 1970 code. As always fun episode Cheers Doug 😎
We had a 69 or 70 Bronco back when my husband and I first married. It was green and white. We had soooooo much fun in it. We had friends that had 4wheel drive vehicles, and we would go what we called 4 wheeling on the weekends. We were young and, of course, did some stupid things, but luckily, no one got hurt. Some of the vehicles didn't come out of it to good, but we did have fun. My husband also had a Willie's Jeep/truck when we got married. Be careful but have fun.
I had a 1977 that was built-in December of 76 had a high pin Dana 44 front end. Tune a 1/2 inch exhaust. Automatic would do a 120. End, climb up the side up a building.😊
That's Awesome you found the BOSS her truck 😊 can't wait to watch the videos of the Build it's going to be Awesome!! Keep up the Amazing Work your Channel Rocks !!!!

Please no ford engine in that bronco . We don't want demry to be breaking all the time .
LS SWAP!
I’ve checked out their website twice and I can’t find the heat gun. You might let them know and put a link to the heat gun.
They could be out of stock

Good to see Cody along on a fun trip like this.

I have the perfect mustang to be restored.
I second a mustang build
an old school mustang fastback!
I’ve always wanted one of those! Please buy it so I can live vicariously through your channel.
Remember Hillbilly is getting the 460 after the wrecker gets 12 valve diesel swapped! That 460 would be nice in that mustang after it gets rebuilt!
She’s a great lady and deserves something special!!
Thanks Robbie for taking care of her !!
She deserves better indeed. At least he can do a Cherby Bernny pretty well though on Easter.
she is getting prettier ever week. Let her know please.
A vintage Bronco in that good of shape is the find of the decade!!! Please keep it all Ford!!! Congrats boss lady!!!
Agreed, putting an LS in this would be a waste of a great Bronco!! Boss Lady needs a Boss 351 !
@tjaxon3063 Windsor heads for torque, and yes, that is the 1970's correct big dog conversion. The Dana transfer case will take it if you don't get crazy on the build.

The Boss deserves everything for work she does. Great job Demri.
Robby you get that sweetheart any thing she wants. Cause she puts up with you and your craziness.
I had a 1967 Bronco when I was in high school. 289 V8 3spd on the tree. Wish I still had it....
The early Bronco is the coolest 4x4 ever built. That's why I have a 73 parked in my garage.
And I do happen to have an original spare tire carrier for you Demri 🤘and I'm here in Sandy.
Congratulations Boss! Demri is the voice of reason, the comic relief, the mom of our favorite joke teller, and a great videographer. Im excited to see the evolution of Broncto-Bismol. 🤗
& snow bunny in the winter & we love her . Robby is a blessed man for sure .
Yeah. Not a nice way to say this - she is my favorite of all the significant others in this world of offroad recovery channels. Like Mara with BSF also.
If the boss wants pink make it pink.. but no LS do the Coyote swap keep it ford powered.
I had a '72 Bronco I bought in '73. Lots of fun. One trip I had 5 guys and a dog for a weekend trip. It had a 302 and 3 on the tree.
Demri is a princess and half of what makes Robby successful. It has been fun watching you two grow together. Further, Hillbilly needs the Mustang. Can we come up with a plan to help him get it?

That is going to be a great build, not to mention the lack of rust, The Boss deserves it, and it doesn't look bad in pink.
James Duff...and... Wild Horses 🐎... two outstanding parts and accessories stores for the Bronco..
I like that purple on Jorge's Bronco. Good to see you found such a solid Bronco for Demri. Too bad it's going to become pink, but she deserves it to be however she wants it.

Congratulations Demri ,I know you can't wait to see it done and drive it. I know Robby and the Crew are gonna make it very nice for you. Thanks for taking us along.
Great to see Demri getting her dream car.I also really hope Hillbilly can get that Mustang because to see a rebuild on that would be really good for all of you.

Demri is amazing. Great to see you taking care of her Robbie!

Too bad it is cut up, look at the uncut and see what Demri likes better! Can't wait to watch this one being built!
Your wife absolutely adores you. It's sweet. You guys rock
Nice Bronco, great starter build.
Congratulations Demri on your new toy. I can't wait to see the build on your Bronco. So glad you got your Dream truck. Hopefully we will see you working on it also. Hope Hillbilly gets that Mustang also.

Excellent find, and I'm sure Demri will be thrilled with it when it's done.
What an incredible find! This should make a really cool Bronco for Demri. Hard to imagine that it has almost no rust.
I hope Hillbillys can get that mustang! That would be a cool build!
Well that's awesome for the boss lady! Have a good week and God bless amen.
Congratulations Demri! I hope you enjoy your Bronco as much as I do my 68. We can’t wait to watch the build.
Congrats on getting your Bronco Demri, It’s gonna be awesome!
I am super excited to see this project happen. That pink Bronco does look great, and with your style applied, it can still be a unique auto.
Your wife absolutely adores you. It's sweet. You guys rock. The Boss deserves everything for work she does. Great job Demri..
That Bronco is gonna look sweet! I agree with Hillbilly tho........need to keep it original and put a Ford motor in it. Thank you for sharing and congratulations Demri

Keep up the great video’s, Robby and Crew!

😂👏🏽👏🏽 Boss lady " And I don't know what you are talking about" 😆 love it
Well done Robby !!..... gotta take care of that Boss
I really hope they pick up that Mustang and make a whole restoration series on it.😁😁
Congratulations Boss on getting a Bronco. But I'm with Robby I wouldn't want to have it painted Pink either.
It’s not going to be his!!!!
@@donras564 I know He calls his wife the boss.
I've had a few Bronco's and that one is in nice shape. My son now owns the one I bought from my dad. It sorely needs some rust repair/new door posts and a new cowl but we still wheel the heck out of it.

I can’t wait to see you build that lovely lady the car of her dreams. Those fender flares are not “factory” but they were a common modification and they usually cracked easily. The Bronco came with either an automatic or three on the tree and that might have been the original steering column resting on top of the hardtop but I couldn’t see it well enough. I had a ‘75 back in the day and although I’ve had 4X4s ever since, it was the best by far even without lockers.
I can't wait for this build.
You found the only two fords that I would own, at the same place that is awesome. Looking forward to the build on the Bronco, Hopefully Hillbilly was able to buy the Mustang that would also be a great build. I always enjoy your content, keep up the good work.
While I love the LS, I believe in keeping stuff "in the family." Honestly, I'd just drop a good ole 5.0 in it (the original, not the Coyote).
She does know how much smaller the bronco is compared to the chevy blazer right? Both great, but different. Bronco was small like a jeep and had the folding windshield like one. Blazer is a shorter version of the suburban/pickups of the time
Greetings Robby, your wife and your boss deserve everything she asks for. God Bless u all 😂
God Bless u all
Robby, save that Mustang too, please. It will very interesting. Yes for Bronco too. Thanks. Ivet from Europe.👍
BTW Hillbilly, GRAB that Pony car!
My biggest regret in life is selling my 70 Sport Bronco when I lost interest in every thing after my dad passed away. It was an original uncut and complete. To answer your question they didn’t come with rear flares originally al had low wheel arches in the rear. The tops were all Wimbledon White too
Congrats Demri! Your husband will turn that into a work of art!!!
As an owner of two 1972 Blazer‘s, that is my first choice. But the bronco has always been a fun and great vehicle. I like that there’s no window frames on the doors of the Blazer when the top is off and think it looks better. My Blazer never has the top on. If it’s truly hers, I’m OK with pink!
A later model, 302 fuel injected, is an easy swap and very dependable. The coyote brings it to another level.
In 67 or 68, the window frame on the broncos was removable. I can't remember for sure if it was 67 or 68, but those doors are super rare. It was a one year option.
For the wheel flares you could just use those blue barrel cut outs that you used on the Lamo, I’m sure the boss would like it
What an exciting episode! Thank you for making it for the Boss lady and the fans of Robby Layton!
Whatever you do, don't put an LS on it!!!
Excellent! So happy for you! Looking forward to the build!
The Re-Sell value of a Bronco with a Coyote Engine, is off the charts. You place an Chevy LS and now you've limited who your buyers would be. You can say Oh I'm not selling it, We're not flipping it. Doesn't matter, 5-8 Years down the road you might change your mind.
I haven’t sold a single project vehicle in 34 years so maybe in 34 years I will sell it with an LS In it
Can lead a Horse to water
I swear not only are you a Mopar guy but I like you more & more every time you “F” with hillbilly about fords bahahahaha I had to pause the video when you said yuk at the mustang I was laughing so hard lol but I am a bronco fan thanks to my wife lol great job and congrats on the new ride keep it up man I honestly think you’re one of the hardest working guys on youtube !
Thanks for sharing guys! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Ok very nice Bronco, and I hope a deal was made for that mustang.
The early Bronco's have small wheelwell openings in the back. A lot of people bought Bushwacker flares and cut the quarters. It's kind of rare to see an uncut Bronco but it does limit your tire size.
Congratulations!!🍾 Demri and Hillbilly!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼. Both Fords would make GREAT PROJECTS.
We had a 67 Bronco with a 289 V8 3 Speed on the Column with a 6 inch lift. We had a blast in the River Bottoms and on the farm with it.
My first car was a 1970 Bronco - the 2 door "SUV" (although we didn't have that term yet). I was in high school in the 90's, so it was already a very cool and unique car. What a fun project!!!! I kick myself to this day that I sold it for $2000 and bought a 1981 VW Rabbit (ugh)
I had a 71 with the 170. Swapped the 170 with a 302 from my Mercury Comet. Also switched the the 3 speed tranny with a C4 auto
Thing about the 2nd Bronco, is you can build it what ever way the Boss wants it (as you said it’s a blank canvas). It would have been a shame to repaint the purple Bronco.
And hopefully Hillbilly gets the Stang, vroom vroom
Hey boss girl.
Don't let them guys give you any crap about Fords. I owned a 68 Bronco for 45 years. When I live in northern Cal. It was stuck when I got it. Can you think I did do it was cut the fender put flares on it . Put some Armstrong true tracks 33 * 8 watch programs put a roll bar in it later brush guard. Put a brand new rebuilt in it high performance 289 with headers.
3 on the tree . It would make those back wheels bark and smoke. My cousin had a 72.
With the 302 also a 3-speed.
I don't know how many times I had to go pull him out at 3:00 in the morning.
Brought it back to Missouri.
Sold it 3 years ago.😢😢.
My four kids grew up in that thing. Do you have three reasons of not working I had to get rid of it. And that they would go anywhere and everywhere.
Sit back then we didn't have all that lift kit Jive bull crap what they have now. Well some of it there was. And then add the Chrome strip all the way around.
Mine did not come with a back seat. The guy used it for taking bales of hay to his cattle.
And you just had the top.
The spare tire holder did not come with a swinging spare tire spare tire Ashley latch to the tailgate on the inside. But I found a swing in the original spare tire holder not put it on there.
In my windshield did fold and sit on the hood. I had to remove is too long screws they were on the dash with the Chrome knob. After you took the top off to lay it down on the hood.
Good luck to you girl...
And yes all of my vehicles have been Ford and the GMS model well they broke down .
They took a you know what.
And I am a hell of a lot older than Robbie. Old school.
50s. Early.🤜🏽💥🤛🏽. Get you some of that. Girl you rock now.
Just don't paint it pink.
If you lived in Southern California on the beach that's different .🤟🏽🤙🏾👍🏽🤗😘😊😎🙋🏽♂️🥂🍾🎸. Mine was red and white.
Yeah for Da Boss !!! That would look Awesome same paint pattern but Pink & White. Hillbilly, that Rustang would look good with Fred's engine in it Ty for taking us along
Back in the '80s I helped run a fleet of 80 vehicles for an engineering firm. Vehicle #1 was a '71 Bronco, 302, 3-on-the-tree. Best vehicle ever. Vehicle #6 was a '76 with the factory fender flares. Both were just awesome off-roaders.
Nice find! That Bronco will be a great platform for resurrecting. This will be fun to watch. Congrats Boss! Funny how that Mustang has collision damage at the same place my brother's 1970 Mustang project does.
I have a 1970 with a 351 Windsor, C6 transmission, NP205 transfer case, and for 9" rear end. Been sitting in my shop for years
Love the Bronco you picked for Demri the next question I have is did you or Hillbilly get the mustang
Awesome Ford Bronco, Keep it all Ford!
Welcome to the Family!!!!! I have a 74 I've been working on, has the original 302.
Our 61 Scout Pickup had a U bolt in the middle of the hood that the windshield would clip to when folded down. Land Rovers also had fold down windscreens.
I know this probably won't be your first second or even third option for the engine in the Bronco. But, would you consider a 289 high performance. They were great engines in their day. Plus, I believe You can now obtain efi for them. Just a thought. Love your videos keep them rolling.
Good luck trying to shoehorn a Coyote in that Bronco! Why not throw in a crate performance 351. Same block as the old 302 that came with it, and a lot of performance options without all the surgery.
very nice work again Boss to find a beautiful Ford, very beautiful work
Genius find! I've never seen one this clean.
I'm in Canada so it's impossible to find this SUV in any shape but too far gone!
Can't wait to see where you take this in terms of engin mods, tires flares.
It might look incredible in the Pink Cysler used Panther Pink / Moulan Rouge M3 code I belive.
It's a 1970 code.
As always fun episode
Cheers
Doug 😎
We had a 69 or 70 Bronco back when my husband and I first married. It was green and white. We had soooooo much fun in it. We had friends that had 4wheel drive vehicles, and we would go what we called 4 wheeling on the weekends. We were young and, of course, did some stupid things, but luckily, no one got hurt. Some of the vehicles didn't come out of it to good, but we did have fun. My husband also had a Willie's Jeep/truck when we got married. Be careful but have fun.
I had a 1977 that was built-in December of 76 had a high pin Dana 44 front end.
Tune a 1/2 inch exhaust.
Automatic would do a 120. End, climb up the side up a building.😊
Congratulations Demry. I can’t wait to see the build series of this awesome Bronco
That's Awesome you found the BOSS her truck 😊 can't wait to watch the videos of the Build it's going to be Awesome!! Keep up the Amazing Work your Channel Rocks !!!!
The first gen Bronco has always been my favorite!
