I've been waiting 40 years to get this baby; and I just got it on trade for my beautiful '63 Falcon convertible.
It is a true Sport SUV-P/U model w/o any holes drilled for rear seat or roll bar... etc...
It is beautiful; laser straight; no rust; new shiny paint; 3.5" lift; standard Bench seat.
It has P/S w/GM tilt; Power (front) Disk Brakes; 3-Speed A/T; stock 289/V8;
and aftermarket fiberglass half-cab.
It came with 20" highly polished wheels; and Good-Year Wrangler HP tires: M+S P275/60 R20's.
A super smooth ride on the freeway at 85 MPH!

I just swap them wheels / tires for BF Goodrich Radial Mud-Terrain T/A's: 35 X 12.50 R 15 LT.
I'm gotten it into my head that I want to race it at next year's Baja 1000.
However, the PO, a friend, tells me that I'd have to spend LOTS 'o cash before I can
even think on doing this..!
My Master mechanic leans toward the same advice.
So, where do I go from here?
I suppose that I can do the Southern Califrikinfornia weekend warrior trails?
I just purchased a beautiful set of bucket seats out of a 67' Mustang;
a mahogany Grant steering wheel; and the matching upholstery for the rear seat.
I purchased another set of Bronco original buckets w/a "modified" rear seat;
but w/o arm rests... I'll wait to find a stock one.
I might trade these seats for other Bronco stuff.
I want a roll bar and a bikini top too...
So; if the Baja 1000 is out of the question, then I'll go with other comforts;
like Full canvas Black top and A/C for the wife?
What do you think? Emails are welcome!
