Image Insert:
This Bronco is the end result of 3 plus years of hours of love for building somthing special. I have had it for 6 years and only put 620 miles on it since completing it. Between starting my own business over a year ago and my new involvement with my daughter and her horses, I am just too busy to take it out to play. I have considered just putting it in storage till things slow up for me, but this thing is way too much fun to just let it sit.
Specs:
68 Bronco, Fuel injected 302 HO, Beefed C4, Dana 20 transfer case (620 miles on all since complete rebuilds)
Full width axles, Front High pinion 44, 488 gears, full detroit locker, disk brakes
Rear 60, 488 gears, Detroit Electratrac, drum brakes (disks included)
Suspension, 4 link rear, 3 link front, 17" Bilstien rock crawler shocks with reserviors, 3 springs per shock, Beard limit straps, Rock hard sway bars
http://www.classicbroncos.com/4link.shtml
Tires, 6 - 37 x 17 x 12.50 BFG Crawlers (2 new spares) Custom steel beadlocks with Bronco emblems laser cut into chromed locking plates
Steering , Full hydro, 6/1 orbital, double ended ram, high steer with titanium
arms, all hiems, Race car products pump, cooler and reservior.
Custom built cage, bumpers, spare tire mount, dash, console, driveshafts, twin sticks, alum roof, fuel tank skid plate, complete spring mounted dual exhaust system dynomax mufflers, titanium fuel lines, interior lighting
Beard seats (extra wide and tall), rear matching Beard bench, 5 point harness 9000 lb winch, H4 headlights, CTM's, BC broncos 24 gal tank, 2 sets rock lights, Ron Francis wiring, Auto meter gages, full herculined interior etc,etc,......
Al total I have over $36,000 just in receipts from the build of this rig. There are more pictures of it in my album (watfab) and I have a bunch of other photos that I could email if your interested. Trades considered (I would really like to find a uncut, done or project)

I don't know if anyone is even interested with the economy like it is now. I have had it posted for a few day on other bronco websites and haven't even gotten a reply yet.
Sidenote: looks like your bussiness is doing well.... congrats on that. |

I'd like to add that I have seen this rig in person as it was being built. Wade went overboard with the quailty of everything he did in this rig.
First rate work for sure.
Wade,
Hate to see you give up your EB, I'll store it here till you want it back.
Steve
ps,
tell everybody I said hi. |

Booger welds  It is a good thing that I am very comfortable in my welding skills or else my feelings could have been injured
I will try the race dez thing .... good idea |

Mike,
Not sure if Wade still has it, or if he even visits here anymore. I'll send him an e-mail for you.

More pics can be sent. It has a alum roof that works well to keep the sun and rain out but I never did build any sides or enclosed type of setup for it. Price has been reduced to $ 15,000.00 We got it out after the winter and charged up the battery, toped off the fluids and took it for a drive. Everything still works great and driving it sure makes me wonder why I want to sell it. But up here in colorado you really have to stay on the roads so a full tilt rock crawler is a bit overkill around here. I would still like to find a nice uncut bronco or (gasp) a jeep  . That would go every where that we go play up here. Send me an email address for you and I will send you all of the current pictures.
Thanks Wade

| WOW I know it has been a long time since i was on here last...3 trips to Iraq and see what happens. I remember watching the threads while Wade was building this beast. I hope you got what this rig was worth. But then again you never get out what you put in. |
If it ain't broke then you aren't trying hard enough!!!
