welcome rookie. I used to live just north of Ft worth in the lewisville area and worked for A ford dealership in Grapevine

460, C6?

Nice Uni.

eh... that's NICE!

the slammed '63... did you put in an IFS, or keep the straight axle? If you kept the straight axle, I wanna know MORE!

As you can see in my signature, I have ambition of dropping her to about a 4" fully deflated height. I know I could drop her on the asphalt with an IFS setup, easier and cheaper, but it doesn't do it for me like that.

Thanks,it is actually a 79 camaro frt clip(it was free),but I made ithe frame look like it came from the factory with it,and it drives awesome,like a big 3000lb gokart,i used a 79 bronco tilt column which only took 1 borgeson to get steering complete,just couldnt beat the low buck entry price.good luck with yours.

Welcome.

Another person in this neck of the woods. I am just up in Haslet... Have you ever been out to the Pate swap meet @ TMS? If not you need to make plans to join us there in late April. http://www.pateswapmeet.com If you need some front end sheet metal let me know. I still have a front clip and hood from the 63 parts truck and the metal is good shape. Plus some other stuff.

The longest part of our trip would to be just gittin' out 'o Texas!

Welcome to the club. I am intrigued and would love to see photos of the 2wd Broncos. That is a project I have wanted to do for a while.

Ken. Texans at Slicktock are rarer than Sudanese immigrants at a KKK meeting, with the exception of Lyman (Jeepbut) who has been at every one. but he's a Corpus brand Texan, I guess they are different.

I thought I posted a in this thread.
I guess I either fell asleep before hitting 'submit', or I had to go pee or something.

Anyway, I'm with Truckfarmer, I'd like to see pics of the 2wd Bronco too.

Free stuff is always really nice. I wish somebody would toss me a free dropped axle and air ride equipment. Hell for that matter I just wish I could get ahold of the dummy in Phoenix that has an Air Ride he posted on Craig's list a while back...

mmm Gokart.
Actually I would wager your truck is probably closer to 4000. I had my truck on the scale at the scrap yard a while back. Shortbed, 390, C6, spare tire, Very small toolbox, and big ugly bumpers pushed it to around 4060. Eh, all that crap IS pretty heavy. Maybe a normal weight would be around 3000....
