It has the matching outlaw on the spare tire carrier. The tire is absolutely shredded.
That's just lazy though of the previous owner. If you have a full size spare like that, you don't swap out just 4 wheels, you do all 5.

Nice! Looks like you have a great place for that resto. What I really like is the lift you are using. That would have made my resto so much easier. What I learned on that project is that no problem is so bad that it can’t be solved by throwing more money at it!

Wow, stealing my heart out! 2 years ago I bought a 66 that I tried so desperately to restore. Long story short I invested in almost all new body panels, rebuilt drive train and new parts from Tom's Bronco parts. I spent over 10K on parts alone. I invested 44k total- lost so much money at bad Body Shops. At the end my final desperate attempt was to try and weld the body panels myself in a tiny garage in my association, almost caught the neighborhood on fire. I tried so hard, the stress got to me, ended up in the hospital. I fortunately recovered, first thing was to let go on the Bronco as fast as possible. I begged to give it and all the parts away for 7500. I could not find anybody reliably to work on it- was such a shame. Now my saving grace was a new 2021 Bronco......if it ever will get built.....

Yeah idk what's going on with this thing, the previous owner had like 2 months, I think he just wanted to flip it or something.

Like most of you guys the waiting to get our broncos has been hard to say the least. Ive had one bronco in the past and it was an '87 Eddie Bauer that I bought new. So in short I bought this '90 EB yesterday to keep my mind off the wait and have one badass unit when it's done. My goal to have this thing mostly functional before my 7/13 res gets here. It's definitely seen better days but she's got a whole lot of potential.

So only the driver got the flow through cooled seat. After a few hour drive you will wear that impression for a while. Kind of like the "library tattoo" you get reading that same magazine over again.

Wow, sorry that it caused you so much stress, Fortunately for me, my buddy and I have been restoring theses together for about 4 years now as our hobby , we are on our 4th restoration and having a blast rebuilding classic Broncos, we both had them in high school together 40 years ago, now between the two of us we have 13 of them . Not all of them are restored yet, so hope to get them done before I retire. Lol.

Just finished cleaning and buffing the outside. It came out really nice for what it is. Next up is to remove the steps, gut interior, figure out engine issues and likely pull motor.
