3 Attachment(s)
I finally got my new toy finished today. I bought it in July and it has been a project since. It is 67 Ford Bronco 100% restored.

HUGE thanks to Corey (Southern 101) for a great job at an unbelievable price.

First pic is how i bought.
second is after Corey went crazy
last pic is final product.

That is one sweet ride!!! My Grandpa had one when I was a kid and I have always wanted to get one and fix it up.

southern151 10-09-2012 10:15 PM

Thanks man but, it was an effort on behalf of our entire team at the shop and your guy over there, JD. I have to give him a lot of props for rolling through the final assembly so quickly! It really looks awesome all done in final assembly!

Hope you enjoy Cruisin' with it! I'm taking a whole weekend off this week! LOL!

I have them, painted and all. Just not sure if I want them on. What you think?

latravcha 10-10-2012 07:09 AM

I kind of like it without the flares on front but I would be scared to pick up a rock and chip the paint

It would look better with them on IMO.

Good Looking Ride. My neighbor has a 1978 Bronco with a 351, 36" trail tires, he has the inside Rhino lined, nothing extravagant but a nice vehicle to cut it up in the pasture and cruise on the beach with.

I like it better with them on but honestly you can't go wrong either way. Very good looking ride. Congrats

Finfeatherfur 10-10-2012 08:14 AM

Very jealous sir!

Reggoh 10-10-2012 08:19 AM

I'm a stickler for details... you gotta put the windshield wipers back on so you can get the mud off the windshield when you are shreddin it up in a nasty hole.

Beautiful work and awesome vehicle... I love the color choice.
And I think it would look better with the front fender flairs also.

SULPHITE 10-10-2012 08:31 AM

very very nice! enjoy!

mriguy 10-10-2012 09:11 AM

very cool ride. I would definately put fender flares on front.

yigodiver 10-10-2012 04:00 PM

LOVE it this is one of my favorite classics, along with '67 GTX

youmyboyblue 10-10-2012 05:37 PM

Thanks for all the comments. I'm going to hold a front fender flare up on the truck for suggestions. I keep going back and forth

Great looking early bronco. I have a '76 302 auto with c-4 trans and full cab. Looking to do a few things to mine. What shop did the work for you?

It is about a 1.5 hour drive to Fishers from my house. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Guy busted his *** for me at about 2k less price than a few other shops who IMO do half *** work.

The final assembly and details were done by a guy in Lacombe. PM me if you want his contact.

LPfishnTIM 10-10-2012 09:42 PM

that looks awesome!

southern151 10-10-2012 09:47 PM

Got any pics of the tailgate? Curious as to how it came out.

Thanks for the kind words guys and, again, it was a multi-person/organization task. Glad to have the privilege to be a part of it!
