I am looking at getting a 93 eddie bauer bronco, i fell in love with it as soon as a drove it. but after my shop took a look at it it is leaking all over the place, and they said it would be 500-700 just to fix the top end, and that they would have to pull the engine or tranny to fix the bottom end leaks. if i were to get this bronco would it be more economical to fix the 351 that is in it, or find a 300 and rebuild it (im thinking the 300 for a little better mpg). also would the 300 bolt up to the transmission, i think its an e4od? also once i got it on the interstate and i hit 40 if i tried to accelerate the rear would shake and vibrate, the shop said it "might" be a bad u joint, but when i told them i didnt think i was going to get it b/c of the leaks they didnt look into it any further. any ideas what that could be.
iv read around the forums a little bit, and have some prior ford experience, i have a 65 galaxie that is being garaged till i get older and hit the jackpot to restore. but my shop will be doing the majority of the work for me.
i know this is a long and drawn out first post but, thanks in advance.
