Hi all, I'm Darrin (Shadow D).
I've had my bronco for about 4 years now and have started a working restore, i.e. I still use it as my daily driver but work on her when I get the chance. Needless to say it's taking a long time to finish.
I call her "The Beast". She started out her life as a traffic safety enforcement unit with the Colonie Police Dept. in 90. After several years she became an under-cover narcotics / surveillance unit. I bought her at auction in October 2000. The picture below was taken in the early spring of 2001. I have done a lot sense then but it still needs a lot of work.
I have...
(under the hood)
Replaced the motor with a Ford Rebuilt / installed 351W
Had the Trany rebuilt
and have had all the axel seals replaced and gears inspected by the dealership.
(Body)
installed a grill guard
replaced the passenger side door
started the body work
installed a Lund Moon Visor
installed a Lund Wind-Jammer
installed a Lund bug guard
The Plan...
Replace the fenders
Replace the inner fender wells both front and rear
Replace the Drivers side quarter panel
Replace the Drivers side rocker panel
Replace the Drivers side door
Replace the Passenger side wheel arch
Replace the tailgate
Complete restore of the interior
Like I said their is a lot to do. I will post pics as the progress continues.
