figured the Outdoor board would appreciate this.
talked with him, told him i want a modern engine that gets at least 25 MPG... he said it wouldnt be a problem, and he would send me a list of engines and prices

Welcome to the club. Don't be an EB douche though. There's an Early Bronco club that won't let me play w/ them because mine's a '79.
Getting 25mpg would be a wet dream for me, though I got about 14-15mpg a few weeks ago, and it drove solid at 75mph.

I want to do a project like that but I haven't made my mind up if I want a 79 truck or and early Bronco.
I like you though I would want it all modernized.
BTW that's a bad arse ride

its a 77
mine will be grey with black trim
both wheel wells cut
3 inch lift
have not decided on tires or anything like that
but yea, modern is a must for me, because i dont know dick about cars.
one of the engine options is the new mustang engine with gets 32 mpg...
also this will be a year in the making, but im getting the ball rolling

I don't fully understand all the options on their page.

same here, thats why i called, but what are you confused about, i wasnt sure about the suspension and a bunch of stuff, so i told him, strictly city driving, and it will be my primary car...
so if in a year you see that sexy beast driving around nola or BR... its me

Well now I want one! Could they restore one economical enough for an everyday vehicle? My grandpa had a 69 silver one. Loved that freakin thing. First memory I have of hunting was in it!

they are going to call me back with the estimate sometime next week for it, i told him it would be my primary vehicle.
so they can clearly do it

Nice. Check icon4x4 as well, they build some cool machines.
Posted on 11/15/12 at 7:17 pm to BayouBengal504
Let me know how your experience goes with this fella. I'd love to restore mine.

WHAT?
you want me to follow up is that what your asking?
Posted on 11/15/12 at 7:45 pm to BayouBengal504
quote:i would like to find out about the pricing on this as well. your impending answer will be very interesting to me and i'm waiting with nervous anticipation.
WHAT?
i have had many broncos and getting a company to just build what you want is certainly novel from any dealings that i've had since i bought my first 74 in aprox. 76.
unner stand?
eta: and yes, chase me down when you get info., if you don't mind.
