  • This Bronco has been sitting without an engine for many years, it can now move under it's own power.

    It's always good to hear an engine come to life after it gets installed. I don't miss those late sniw storms.. lol. I enjoyed it Alvin and looking forward to the build.

      Thanks Matt, I wish I could say the same about the snow storms. Lol

    Congrats on getting it running again. You made slinging that engine alone look easy - well done sir (because we all know it isn't easy alone). Thank you as always for taking us along ~ Chuck. P.S. You made me truly laugh out loud at the "rich channels...with brand new parts".

      Thank you Chuck!
      It was a tight fit, the A/C box really fills the engine bay...may a guy will have to look at one of the Vintage Air systems? 🤔

    Hello Alvin. Glad you got the engine in just in time! The snow is one thing, but multiple car failures sure was not expected I bet. I put my snow shovels away today, so it'll probably snow here soon.lol
    The engine sounded good, and glad to see the T-bird just waiting.

      Hi George,
      It's been a busy couple of weeks, but that's retirement! Lol
      I hope the snow misses you, we really do need the moisture, and I guess, if it comes in the form of snow, that's better than nothing. ❄️

    Alvin,
    It's glaringly obvious that you haven't very much to occupy your time. Find something to do, will ya?😋
    Regards,
    John

      Hey John!
      Yes... retirement is sooooo boring, I think you know what I mean. 😉

    Wow , snow at this time of the year. I hate to tell you that I had to cut my grass today. This Canada is a big place.
    Are you still running the Bronco with a 12 volt wire to the coil or did you find out the problem?
    All that work, it is either nothing or too much. Until the next one.

      It's days like this that I miss living in Vancouver. Lol
      I got the ignition coil wiring figured out... mostly it was my mistake, I was using two wire harnesses at the same time, and should have only been using one, it's all good now, also had to swap out the ignition key tumbler...the Bronco came without keys. If I think of it, I'll show the fancy fuse bypass set up on the fuse box in a future video...it is quite innovative. 🫣

    Great Job! OJ would be so proud of you!! Snow in Mid April? Brrrrrrrrr..... maybe you need to do a snow mobile restoration video series....

      Thanks Mike!
      Funny you mentioned a snowmobile restoration, I was looking at a 1970 Snow Jet, that was in really nice condition, but had been sitting for many years...would have been a nice little project, maybe in the future, we do have a 1979 Honda Trail 90, that has been in my wifes family since it was new, and needs some attention. 🤔
