I have a 1989 Ford Bronco 2, with a 6 cylinder 2.9 Liter engine, that I totaled in a car crash. Front end damage (need new fan and radiator, but engine and trans are still alive), the steering wheel is bent forward, steering column plastic is broken (where my knee smashed it open), and a cracked windshield.
I was hoping to get some opinions as to which would be the cheapest way to fix this prob.
I've attached some photos of the vehicle.
Thanks,

Buy a used BII with a blown motor really cheap and swap the motor... THe Frame is going to be bent on that one and its not worth the headache

I think you should definately get another B2 and use that one for parts. Or just swap out the motor.
How'd you do that geez. it looks like it would have hurt.

I rear-ended a Dodge Durango w/ an extended trailer hitch. I looked at the radio for one second and when I looked back the truck was there. I slammed on my brakes, but it didn't stop in time. The guy must've came out of a drive-way when I wasn't looking or something. I'm the only one that got an injury (broken kneecap), but I'm walking right now. Them Broncos are built tough, that's definitely evident in this incident, because I had no airbags and a faulty seatbelt and I'm still alive :)

Re: Bronco Crash....Need Ur Opinion
i think it depends on how bad the frame is bent and if you want to put time into repairing it.
