decal came from florence oregon from a quad shop. Thanks for the comments. Heres me playin with y tow truck seein how much droop my ranger has





 
That is beastly, reminds me of the old 78 bogger in the paint shop at work right now.
 
looks awesome. i have a 79 bronco myself, best style fords ever made in my opinoin!
 
i wouldnt trade it, but personally myself id have a bed on it too lol... those trucks and those parts are starting to become very valuable and is easily worth more then a f-150, esp with the 44 in the front and them boggers, can u say snappity snap snap
 
:drool::drool: know how when you see a incredible girl, and you cant speak.....

i just had that moment....
 
looks good... i rele want a later 70s truck i love that style. and i read your build thread.........just reinforces why i will never go to pirate and post......anyways love the truck and you will miss it when it is gone haha
 
I would keep the old girl and do the repairs to keep her up and running. I love the 70's Fords. My first 4x4 was a 79 Bronco that had a 400M C6 auto in it. Ran 33's on stock suspension and beat it to hell and back. Alot of :beer: and mud ..........the good old days.
 
oh yeah dude, ran across your craigslist ad the other night! Bummer to sell it. you've had i a while and changed lots!
 
Well looks like the hands of fate are making me keep the 78. Got a bed for 60 bucks gonna throw her on this weekend and my buddy has 4 gallons of Caterpillar yellow industrial enamel im thinkin of sprayin her with. Everything figures out nicely so i will have a hidden boom in the bed. Ill have some pics this weekend
