I got out last week and put the new/used front end on. its off a 73, I kinda like the round headlights better then the square. now I just need to fix a rear break line get a new brain box and find a set of 15x8 rims for it and I will be off and running!

just thought I would post another pic, I finished up the front end and started on the bumper:

plan on doing something similar to the BII bumper.

oh, and for thoughs of you wondering, I am up to $300 for the whole thing now.

LOL. yeah, I cleaned everything after I talked to my friends dad. I sent the tip but I haven't talked to him in awhile so I don't know it anything ever came of it.

I am trying to get it ready to tow the BII to turkey bay this year but it might be a close call...

well, I got alot done this week. my new tranny and rims show up tomarrow, got a hitch for the trailer today, and I have one more break line to fix. got it running good, it accually runs better then the wifes honda! got some 5900lb rated safty chanes and the tow straps I needed. since I found out that I have trailer breaks I am going to look for a controller to hook up in the cab tomarrow. man I am getting excited!

sweet i like the 73 grille awesome. does the big bronco have front rear sway bar's? if not you can pick them up pretty cheap if not for free. good luck with the tow rig. im also working to get mine tow rig up to par just added summit shorty header's and it's getting a 2 1/2" lift tommarrow.

yeah, I got the sway bars. that was on the list when I checked everything. I am going to put in the new tranny on mon. I didn't relize that the NP435 weighed so much so I got a transmission jack from a friend.
