Very cool, but if you had to work on a Bronco to get it, it was NOT free...

Fender tag?

Cleaned up the interior a bit, going to finishing pulling the motor and trans tomorrow morning. The odometer says 54k I believe this to be original.

Car was probably bought in the 80s reupholstered and painted for a quick flip.

I’m going to try my hardest to remove the baby blue re paint to bring back the original color.

That’s a factory hole 65-66 engineers were on a heavy trip and thought of adding an extra hole for a manual choke my uncle Jerry worked the line back then he was a drunk but always said the truth except when he said he’ll stop drinking tomorrow
