i am a firm beleiver in build them light wind them tight but i would try to stick with the big iron i think it looks cooler and theres getting to be fewer, the ranger\s-10 thing has been beat to death just my opinion and weve got a excab ranger i'll see if there ready to get rid of it should be in that price range

zodiac

Stick with the old ford body not to many of us run them. Just make sure the body is on the frame good. Don't want it to come loss next time you decide to fly.

One of my friends just brought a 1979 bronco over to work on. He went to get it in montana its 100% rust free. I love that style bronco i would love to have one if i could find a rust free one.

no such thing as rust free around me, I have to make them that way myself, I wish I could travel like that to find'em that would rock...
