Glen LeeGlen's web site: Broncohunting.com Here is the Denver Bronco we bought down in Las Vegas in April this year... Pictures #1,2 and 5 were taken in Vegas before we bought it...The rest were taken in our yard just after my father brought it home and there are a couple that have a 'Stroppe' front clip bolted on to show the similarities in paint color... Andrew Norton came out last month and checked out our little stash of Stroppe Baja's and he also had to check out this Denver...
It has a very mild 302 with a four barrel and headers...It runs very strong...It has the auto trans and power steering, limited slips front and rear with 3:50 gears, and the Blue 'Ranger' package... Overall it's in pretty good condition with rust in the front floor pans and starting in the drivers door post area... Minor rust in the tailgate and inner rear quarter panels...
We plan on doing a body off restoration in the very near future after I get one of my Stroppe's finished...Check out the bumper sticker on the left side of the rear bumper... It's kind of fitting for these Bronco's. One thing I found when I stripped out the interior was that
whoever owned this thing previously had laid a second layer of original
carpeting down instead of taking out the old carpet... It was kind of thick
under the seats when I unbolted them!!! Mike: here are some pictures of teardown and of rusted areas that will be repaired during restoration...I will keep the pics coming as this project progresses...
Mike: here are some more of the Nevada Denver Resto Bronco... we have hung the doors on the new-used door posts... they fit awesome... we are getting it ready for the interior paint in a couple of weeks... then it will be almost ready for the exterior to be finished probably by the end of the year or first part of January 2005...what a process...
Mike: here are some more pics of sheet metal replacement... my Dad is having a blast spending time working on this 'Nevada Denver' project... the deeper he goes the more he wants to replace...I'll keep the pictures coming as time and progress grows shorter...
Mike: here are the paint prep pictures... all the seams were sandblasted and treated with rust mort...and all the body seams have been filled with Fusion body/seam sealer... from our local body shop Crown Collision... the Bronco even got a new exhaust system and mountain man mufflers...
Mike: here are some pictures of the interior paint... we are still going to bed-line the entire inside of the Bronco... the exterior paint will be done sometime around Christmas or the first part of 2005... this has definitely been a project... I had our local NAPA store mix the paint code you suggested... it turned out a straight RED... so they mixed up competition Orange and it was a nice match to what my original interior was... so this is what we went with... Reply
I have a couple of changes to the Bronco's current website status... it now has the 2 barrel carb/intake and stock exhaust manifolds back on her...I will send the latest pictures sometime over the weekend of the interior... Mike: here are the latest pictures of the 'Nevada' Denver Bronco Project... the bed liner turned out nice... I can't wait to get the outside finished and start driving her...
