My dad and I built this rig. Mostly it was me building and him buying the parts
As the thread title says, it started life as. 1979 Ford Bronco. Over the years it went from daily driver to semi-raisined off road rig.
It's powered by a Ford 400M. I know it's a 400 and not a 351M because I pulled it out of an LTD that was abandoned in the desert, and rebuilt it with all new bearings, pistons, rings, cam and lifters, and rebuilt the heads with knurled guides and a multi angle valve job. I did this engine work when I was in tech school. I converted the York compressor from the LTD into on board air.
Transmission is a Borg Warner T18. It is married up to the range box from the original 203, and a donor Ford NP205 with parts from the Watsons at Off Road Design.
