The story

I bought two 79's from a gentleman for just under $1600 and he threw in a garage load of parts and accessories as a package deal. The one i decided to keep has since had around $17,000 invested into making it what it is now. Now that the little stuff is done, the expensive work can begin LOL. ie lift kit, motor rebuild. — BroncoBogger
