| Notes: |
I bought the Bronco in 2003 for $1,000 but the PO had spent $1500 on a rebuild kit which may have had about 18-20k and around 35-45k when I did the new 302 swap. (have all the paperwork)
I've done a lot of improvements and maintenance mostly learning www.fullsizebronco.com, I've managed to find a few good parts deals through the site which always makes it better and fun.
I need a tailgate, paint job and interior....
The site is fun and everybody is helpfull and friendly ~ I'm always on the look out for hard to find parts to keep the BKO in top running condition. |
