  • This is a walkaround video of my 1979 Ford Bronco Custom. It has the 400 cubic inch V8 motor with 3 speed power glide transmission. I'm doing a frame off resto-mod build with this Bronco and plenty of upgrades along the way. If you have any suggested upgrades drop them in the comments below. Also please help me out with naming my Midnight Blue Bronco and leave your suggestions in the comments below.
    If there's a truck you want to see a walkaround video of, let me know!

    Jeff’s graveyard Bronco parts have been showing up on my front door. 😀 not sure who’s more excited… me or my UPS delivery guy. Have fun bro.

      I have become very familiar with Jeff's and LMC truck! I'm like a kid in a candy store when on their website. Luckily I'm 30 minutes from LMC truck's warehouse so I can avoid paying for shipping. 👍

    Nice Bronco. Congrats on finding a good one. I'm Restoring a 78 Bronco with a 460 CI Conversion. Lots of work ahead of me but I have the time. Retired last year.
    Enjoy your restoration and thanks for posting the video.

      Thanks for the comment! Congrats on your retirement and new Bronco project. Do you have a lot of rust and bodywork to do? I finally got my motor running smooth and fluids changed throughout except the diffs. New Vintage Air AC and heat installed. Next up will be replacing the brake pads and rotors. I have plenty of Bronco videos on the channel, if you have any questions reach out!

      @@uavoftexas6925 sounds like you have a good project with minimal rust. So far I really like the Vintage Air ac kit. I've used the heat portion quite a bit but just got the AC charged. When I bought the Bronco it had the stock ac and heat but it never worked so I don't have a good comparison. I really like how the vintage air kit fits behind the dash and frees up more space in the engine bay and only requires electric power. I had to upgrade my alternator to run everything.

      @@jacobsupgradeshey Jake! Im really considering getting that AC vintage kit for my bronco. Im not in too big of a hurry to get it since it costs a bit of change. Pretty much if that vintage air kit isn’t a huge upgrade that blows cold air, as if I were in my ford escape, I wont get it.
      My current original ac system doesnt blow cold, and im not sure if it will even blow cold air if i get it serviced.
      Hows the vintage ac system treating you? Did it exceed your expectation? Thanks.

    Congrats on the Bronco! It looks like a great foundation for a really nice build. I am doing a frame off restoration on my 79 that I have had since high school, but it has been delayed a bit because of moving to a new state. Hopefully I will be releasing some new videos of my project shortly. Anyway I just subscribed to your channel and will check out the other vids of your Bronco. Good luck wit it!
