I removed the rea carpet to find mor rust.Had to cut it out and weld in new steel.The waife also got a light bar with lights from the junk yard for $40 and all the lights work.I have also added a 3 rd seat in the back so the bronco will seat 7 for our sand dune trips.Also tied the roll bar to the rear frame and the body in the rear to stop the rear fenders from moving when the tailgate is open.I got the new oil pan in and fixed all the exASET leaks.

well I put a new water pump in becuse the gasket was leaking.I had two bolts break so i had to take the front of the motor apart.But on the plus side I got to put in all new gaskets and seals while i was in there.And yes the wife had me paint it graber green to match the gas tannk...
