Heres a few pics i found laying around. They are from when i first got my car and a pic of the broncoII that i traded for it. Also of getting painted, doing trunk pan and putting on the stripes. Havent been able to find the pics of the floor pan replacement or of the interior being done and seats being recovered. But its a few pics to look at. sorry about the multiple pics on one scan but i was trying to save time.

That is a super nice transformation.

Thanks for sharing.
The Mach 1 and Bronco turned out great. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Thanks! the Bronco actually had alot more money thrown at it than the mustang over the years. I had it since high school. Drove it all through college too. All the while doing alot of work to it. It ran great though. Could pull the front wheels off the ground from a dead stop. I was running 35 inch super swampers on it then. Got me in some trouble but sure was fun. That pic is from the all ford nationals in carlisle pa. I think it was 2006, the 40 anniversary of bronco and it took 2nd or 3rd place there. The trophy is on the ground in front of it. Little glass thing. but it was cool. Thanks for looking .
No doubt about it - nice work!

I like the Bronco II and am amazed that it would pull the front wheels. Did you ever take it off road?
I took it wheeling every chance I got. As clean as it looks there is decieveing. It has seen its share of mud and woods. But i always kept it spotless afterwards. I had it deep enough in some mud holes that I had to roll up the window cause water was coming in the passenger side door window. I took it to the drag strip once and got a great pic of me doing a burn out and coming out of the box with the wheels about 6 inches off the ground. I will Look and see if I can find it. If you would put it in 1st gear and roll along slowly bumping the throttle you could get the front bounceing and then floor it and ride a wheelie for a bit. Awsome fun. people were amazed at the track since i was running 35 inch swampers. It was slow but fun! The running gear was from a 76 bronco. Motor tranny t-case and rearend all fit nicely in a BII. I did the motor swap when i was in my 1st year of college. Ok sorry for rambling. Bringing back some fun memories! Eusa_dance
Can you tell me about the wheels? Manufacturer, style and size? Very interested...

I could be wrong but those look like the American Racing Torque Thrust Wheels.

I love the yellow color.
Nicely done.Clap_

How was the undercarriage when you got it?
The wheels are amercican racind torq thrust d's. fronts are 7 inch and backs are 8.5 inch. I think they really set the car off. almost match the paint perfect. And they are kinda old school looking.

The underside of the car was in good shape but i did end up replacing the floor pans and the trunk pan. everything else was pretty good
