Hi all!
My names Johnny,
 I came across this sight while surfing the web for some answers to some questions i had while working on my newly acquired 86 Bronco.
4” Lift, 33” all terrains
EFI 351!
C6, 9” rear.

Going to be installing front and rear lockers, 4:56 gearing

My last one was an 84. Sold it about a year ago. Decided i missed having one, so i bought another. Ive also owned a 77,76, and a 78.
As well as 2 77 f150 4x4 short beds and a 56 f100. Im currently building a custom 47 F1 (which doesnt resemble a 47 in any way, shape or form anymore). Ha!

Anyway, just wanted to introduce myself.
I do restorations for a living. Owned my own shop for 25 years.
If anyone has any fabrication, body, or paint questions, i’ll be more than happy to share my experiences.

Welcome!  Nice truck.  

Glad you joined.  Where's home?  I ask because we have a map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map in the menu) and I'd be happy to add you if I had a city.

Hope you'll start a thread in the main section on your Bronco, and your '47 for that matter as we love to follow builds, regardless of year.

Johnny - You are now on the map.  But would you be so kind as to set up a signature?  That's explained on the Bullnose Forum/Forum FAQ's page.  Thanks!

Welcome, nice truck. I have family in Dewey AZ. You guys get some nice solid vehicles to start with. Nothing like the rust buckets up in the Midwest from all the road salt where I'm from.

So true!
I use to do all the truck lettering for DeWitt Trucking in Dewey.
I lived in NY half my life. Couldn’t imagine going back to the land of rusted vehicles. 😆
