David's 1967 Ford Bronco
 
Well since I plan to do more work and mods on the Bronco than my Ranger, I may as well start a project log.

Here is a 1967 Ford Bronco.

Specifications when I first got it:
-289 V8
-3 Speed Manual
-Manual locking hubs
-33" tires
-FlowMaster exhaust, duals

My planned mods:
-351W V8
-5 Speed Manual
-2" Body Lift
-3.5" Suspension lift
-Full Roll Cage
-New Paint job
-Chrome bumpers
-Fender Flares

Heres a pic of when we first got it:

So about two years of owning it, I started taking it apart in August and start moving along with my planned mods.
I recently installed the 2" Body Lift, so heres how it sits as of right now:

Beetle? Lol. The car in the background is a 1947 Plymouth business coupe. We used to own a beetle. 1960's...didn't keep it because of title issues.

The color isn't too bad. We are going to keep it a green but we are going to get a better quality paint job. The paint on it right now just like rubs off. Haha.

Is that back bumper factory? A custom tubed bumper would look great and match the brush guard.

Currently working on the roll cage... Kinda difficult at first. Almost ready to start tack welding pipes together.
Sorry for the crappy pics.
