SWEET. Love the boggers on an uncut rig. Looks mean anyway even if it can't flex right now.

Maybe they're the real skinny boggers and can tuck :flipoff2:

IMHO, aren't there enuff sawed up EB's out there? Ya have an uncut one, that appears to be in quite good shape bodywise... why the hell you gonna go chopping it up? just my opinion though.

I dig it. If the tires are narrow on a narrow rim and they can stuff, that thing is perfect. I agree. Don't cut it, buy a cut tub and sell that one to a guy that wants an uncut tub. You'll come out ahead and preserve some old iron.

Coupla schools of thought here..If you going to leave it uncut why the pseudo rockcrawler look? Go totally stock. I used to be an advocate of not cutting. Why, when there are so few good stockers left? Ok, so now I've got an uncut 74 I'm building AND cutting. As for trading or selling it off to someone, has anyone got a like 74 with PS just as good as mine thats cut and they want to trade? Where would I find one? How long would I have to wait? Ok, so I sell it and start looking for another just like it but with cut fenders. How long will I have to look and will it be close to home? Will I ever find it? Can I get a new cut one for the money I got for the one I have now?

It's great to want to save the old ones and all that but practicality sets in at some point. I am neatly cutting my undented and unrusted rear panels. I think I know someone that will want to put them on his cut one. I won't need em cause my wifes stock 66 is uncut and I'd never cut a nice uncut one:D

Hi Amanda :D :D


Looking at it. I think those tires are a picture chop. Look at the pass side, they dont look very knobby. :flipoff2:

BTW restoring a cut back to stock isnt hard to do. I say leave uncut only for slammin on 22s :flipoff2:

I like it! I love the yellow!! As long as something gets done the the EB's they look fine, but if they are stock, they aren't worth much of a look!

Well, in case anyone was interested in some of the specs.
It has a detroited 44 front with a RC full width 44 going in it soon, Big bearing 9" rear with a detroit. 351 bored and stroked to 426 (fun motor!!) with a np435 tranny and the stock bronco dana 20. The tires are 38.5x11.5x15" boggers and no, it is not a chop job. ;)

Since then it has been rolled a couple of times and the rear end has been chopped. Hydro assist steering is on it's way. As are some different meats.

Although he can still be beat by a simple Landcruiser ;)
