My name is Josh and I just happened to be in the right place at the righ time. Last Saturday while out driving my EB I happened to see everyone at Applebees. What a great group and extremely helpfull when my tranny decided to flush itself. Anyway I bought my 1975 bronco four months ago and since then have rebuilt the front axle, brakes, suspension, rear axle, power steering pump, installed new drive shafts, tires, exhaust, fixed some electrical problems, tub rust, installed a tach, transfer case seals, and tires. What an exciting project and what a fun truck. The goal was to make it safe and drivable (Phase 1) until I can save a little to start Phase 2 which should be the interior. Phase 3 and 4 are motor and body work.
Here's some pics of phase 1.
