Busy weekend working on the truck. New stainless brake lines and all drums rebuilt with all new internal parts. New shocks and painted my coil springs. First time out of the garage and rolling in about 6 months.

Great work buddy! I like to see folks doing they're own work, believe you'll come out way ahead. I bought a '77 in Greenwood about 17-18 years ago, had an NP435 4 sp, wish I'd kept it. Anyways keep up the good work!

Finally have paint on the Bronco. Used Midnight Blue for the color and it turned out really good. I like how dark of a blue it is.

Finally on the road and about 95% complete. Worth every penny spent restoring it to see all the heads turn when it rides by.

Just reading this, looks great man. Definitely need to set a meet up at some point, I am in the Jackson area. Would love to talk to someone that knows what they are doing with Broncos, had mine about 1-2 months and learning a lot.
