Gary Lewis Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Really at this point I am looking to wrap everything up and get it on the road. My next steps will be to get it in time, sort out the rest of the vacuum and wiring to what I need and what I don't. I am not under any emissions requirements where I live so I didn't bother replacing any of that. I don't really want to cut everything up wiring-wise though so I may just try to find a way to seal off the unused plugs and what not and try to make them look halfway decent. I need to put the bumpers and the front clip on, get an exhaust put on and a front end alignment and I may try to drive it for the winter. I ended up putting some Headman long tube headers on it and I am a little concerned that the driver's side flange is so close to the front drive shaft but we will see what the exhaust shop can do. If it runs as well as I hope it does I will save any body work for another year or two. Once I get it rolling I will likely work on all the rubber window seals and the passenger side window motor. Here are the pics that actually sold me on wanting this Bronco. My '82 F150's interior was red, my Dad's '84 Straight 6 was Blue, so I was hoping for tan and it looked pretty clean to me. If you or anyone sees anything in my rig that needs attention or you/they have a question about please sone hesitate to point it out or ask! Nice looking Bronco! Your daughter is going to be the envy of her classmates. On the vacuum, here's what I think is needed: Underhood/Vacuum Systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since most of my lines were torched and melted in half, I didn't really have a good idea where stuff went until I bought that manual from Bishko, but the annotated pictures you gave are spot on and make it much simpler! And to think you have a huge show &swap meet in just a few days and can still reply this timely to a post is amazing. You really do take this site seriously. I am profoundly grateful. If you weren't 13 1/2 hours away, I might have just seen you in a few days and maybe even hit services together! Maybe someday, Lord willing. Thanks again.

The stuff on vacuum has been on the site for quite some time. Someone asked the question way back when about what was needed and, having answered several times before, I decided to detail it out once and for all. But I'm glad it seems to have worked for you. Yes, please do come! We can talk Ford and the Lord, and worship together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdinand Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 Just throwing this out there... Katie and I are getting a head-rush being stuck upside down in my initial pic of my youngest grease monkey. Anyone have a suggestion for rotating that pic 180? (I could always delete it I guess) I looked through the info on pics and HTML but maybe I missed something. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
