I purchased my 74 about 2 years ago and have not done much until this summer. The background on the Bronco is that I spotted it in a barn near my hunting property in South Georgia. I convinced the owner, for the last 25 years, to sell it to me. He said that it was running rough and had parked it a year prior. After getting it home I simply adjusted the carburetor and cleaned the fuel filter and it ran perfect. IT had 99450 miles on it and had been re-painted dark green and white during the mid 80's. It was virtually rust-free all but the passenger door. The passenger fender had a small dent. The original color of the bronco was code #3 (Village Green) which is fairly rare. After much consternation I decided to go back original. So for the past 2 years I have been stock piling parts, buying OEM for everything possible. My goal is to be completely bondo free and Ford original as much as possible. I replaced the door and fender first. Then I converted the front to disk brakes. For the last month I have rebuilt the engine and striped the bronco to its bones. My goal is to have this thing ready for paint by October if the checking account can handle it.
