I'm new to the forum. I joined for the good exchange of info. I have a '73 Bronco that I purchased off Ebay 2 yrs. ago. I drove the slightly modified Bronc for a while, until the Bronco bug bit me. So, the frame-off has begun. My wife shakes her head since I spent 6 yrs. on our 67 Stang. Which by the way we have enjoyed racing and showing.
I am installing a 351w stroked to 408 into the Bronco. Cast stroker crank, Probe forged pistons, RHS heads, Comp Xtreme 4x4 cam, Holley carb (for now) and eventually when I save my pennies AffordableFuelInjection.com for a complete SEFI kit. I am going to use a Extreme radiator I purchased off Ebay along with an electric fan. Also installing a C4 W/ 2500 stall, forged rear axles in 9 inch, Dana 44, 4;10 gears, 35 inch Procomps, Cage Offroad suspension, Wild Horses cowl induction hood, Painless wiring, custom 8 pt. cage, etc. I completed the body work and the Bronco is primed. Next the body comes off so I can install the new suspension. I used Hippo liner on the tub. Hippo liner is tintable to ANY color you want. About $70 per qt. it took 3 qt's for the interior tub. Looks great! The spray gun is about 25 bucks. I used a 5 gal WalMart special air-compressor and it worked fine. I cut out the glovebox and flipped it over so it can be used without hitting the cage. I am fabricating the seat brackets and welding them in today. I will then remove the body and strip the frame so I can paint it with Por-15 chassis black. I have painted everything with Por-15, and I swear by it. The backside of the dash received Por-15, the underside of the dash, etc. Wear gloves when painting with it. The Mustang received por-15 on the entire underside. High gloss and very durable years later.
Well, I've rambled enough. Keep the rubber side down and enjoy the journey.
