Sadly (at least up here) most guys her age don't have those traditional values/habits that I was brought up with.

Only one more. The Shelby. After that I'm done.

Unless they strike oil on my land in which case I'll add a Ford GT. But that won't happen anyway.

You guys might wanna spend some time researching. I'm pretty sure all of his rides are claimed, mostly way before you showed up

You're gonna love the goodies I got for the Notch this week from MM.

Torque bar, panhard rod, k-member, camber/caster plates, MM A arms for coil overs.

Consider me as green as my bullitt is

Well I only want to take it apart once. Figured I'd do all suspension and brakes while I'm in there and then move on to power train them interior and finish up with fixing the **** dent.

MM has been running these deal of the day things. So I've been buying the deal each day. Maybe tomorrow it will be coilovers.

Anyway I plan to use their coilover conversion for the fronts with my illumina Tokicos. On the back ill run their regular springs made to work with the torque arm and use their adjustable LCAs.

The cool thing about the torque arm and panhard setup is that it eliminates the UCAs which as you taught me is the real problem with these cars and the snap steer.

Well the fist step will be the subframe connectors. Had them for years and never put them on. Can't install the torque arm without it because it gets welded to them

Well we have a problem with the Bronco. Whenever the temperature drops the seals on these **** El Dorado rear brake caliper leaks. Just the drive side. I heard this could be an issue in colder climates. ****ing GM!
