    Sloth

    I decided to do a build thread for my bronco. I call it sloth because it reminds me of the big retard from the goonies.



    Specs:
    1979 bronco
    c-6 with a shift kit
    np205
    400m with less than 5000 miles on it
    -edelbrock intake manifold
    -holley carb
    -3" exhaust
    -dual electric fans
    d44 front
    9" rear
    4:10 gears
    35" nitto mud grapplers on 16" steelies

    Dupli-color truck bed coating
    Seats from a dodge neon
    Center console from a f-250
    Kenwood deck
    -jensen door speakers
    -pioneer 6x9's
    -12" mtx subs

    Rusty quarters
    tube bumper with hella 500's


    here's what it looked like when i bought it


    old motor.....pos




    new motor


    poser shot


    new bumper



    new tires


    and rims


    I want to make this a truck that i can wheel all day and drive home. I won't go any bigger than 35's because the axles really can't handle it.
