Project Retro Wheeler - 1976 Bronco
A couple buddies and I have been talking about the idea of some retro wheeling, basically no lockers, smaller tires, etc. That being said my other Bronco doesn't fit into that category so I was on the hunt. Trying to keep it cheap so made a deal to save this one. All I know at the moment is its a '76 that had the HD package. Plans are going to be a LUBR, 302, 33's on steelies, etc. I am planning to do as much of this one as I can on my own and with a minimal budget.

Fun! Do you have to retain the stock suspension?

Re: Project Retro Wheeler - 1976 Bronco
Very cool project I bet that 76 with just minor upgrade will be a blast to 4wheel.

Re: Project Retro Wheeler - 1976 Bronco
Did my good deed for the day, put a front end under it, some wheels and tires and took her home.

Forgot this pic of the interior, got some rust repair to take care of. Check out the door panel.
