Car / truck restoration.

Postby pfuller » Sat Jul 07, 2012 11:56 am

Anybody have a recommendation for someone to restore an early bronco in North MS. not looking for perfection just a solid restoration with someone that knows what they are doing. Thanks in advance

I just finished one today. Did most myself except paint. There is a guy that has shop in louisville that did one I saw. It was excellent work. I'll look for a number. I would post pics if someone would let me email them.

Would love to see some pics. My uncle just gave me a 73 bronco that I am going to get started on.

I have a '67 Mustang I'd like to have some work done to also. Anybody in the Jackson area that comes recommended for this type of thing? Not really looking to hot-rod it, just put some money in it to get it running reliably and then sell.

For you early bronco guys, there is a group on FB for you.
http://www.facebook.com/groups/85662735276/
The show lots of pics for ideas / drooling over and get ideas for new products.

classicbroncos.com is a good forum to join. I know duck$$$ and I have talked on there before. You can find out anything you need to find out about a bronco on there. Nice group of guys that all share the same passion. I would be lost working on my bronco without that forum.

There is a guy on Nesbit Rd. just outsdside of Nesbit, MS (which is in Hernando City limits go figure) that is 2nd to knowone I've seen. I can get you his info but I dont think he is cheap. Exterior only but perfection is all he will do. If I ever get another one restored he will do the exterior...worth every penny. I paid a guy nice to do a fair job on my 75 Bronco but I wish I had seen his work before I hired the yahoo I did. Anyways post pics when you get it completed.

Will Jones in corinth is one of the best frame up restorers/fabricators around. P.M. if you want his contact info.
