Hey Folks. Just found this site. I'm new the Forum but not Bronco's. I bought a creampuff 73' Ranger 302 3 spd manual, back when I was 15 now I'm 43. Still have this truck its part of the family. I made lots of changes to it thru the years, lift kits, 33.5 - 15 tires ,motor swap ,different tire swaps, all the work I did myself. Hunted out of it, Bogged with it, it was my main transportation for years. The body is still in great shape, still with the original Ranger stripe kit.

When I got married and had the 1st child it got parked under our pole barn and it has just sat for the last 15 years. Now my second son is 14 and he decided he wants to drive it when he gets 16. So its on now. Our plan is to start on her right away getting some things that need fixing and planning some upgrades over the next year or so. Looking forward to reading about all of your projects and hopefully I'll get some good ideas for mine.

BTW great site.

Hey FB73 you sounds like your starting just like I did.

Pinson do you have a Bronc yet?

s_bolt you make a very good point. We've got to plan ,especially budget, and then build. Also by reading your signture sounds like you've got a very tricked Bronc.
