Description of 1972 Ford Bronco

1972 Bronco! Runs and Drives. This Bronco is mostly original and has been a slow restoration project for the last few years. All glass is good and the windows roll up and down fine. Motor is tight, brakes all new, new clutch, steering, etc.
This bronco's setup:
302 (73 block according to intake manifold casting #), Edelbrock 1406 with off road kit, when I bought it I was told heads were recently rebuilt, (gaskets and rtv on motor indicates that is likely true) Engine runs great.
Hurst floor shifted 3 speed
T shift Dana 20
Dana 44 front end 4.11 gears - LIMITED SLIP
9 in rear 4.11 gears
Odometer reads 69,xxx but no clue as to actual mileage.
Stock suspension
In the last 2 years and with less than 100 miles on any of it, here are all the brand new parts:
New Complete Steering setup from pitman arm out (tie rods, drag link, etc)
New Clutch disc, pressure plate, bushings, bearing (11 inch clutch), flywheel resurfaced
New front wheel cylinders, springs, shoes, drums, bearings
New rear brakes shoes/hardware
New tires 235/75r15 Futura Scrambler
NOS hedman headers (installed, but needs proper 'header' bolts and mufflers)
New Left and Right uncut quarter panels (not installed, but included)
New Left and Right taillight panels (not installed, but included)
New (66-68) style front signal light conversion
New side marker lenses (not installed, but included)
New Battery (~8 months old)
New spark plugs/cap/rotor
New BC Broncos ZF transmission cross-member for installing a ZF5 or M5R2 trans.(not installed, but included)
New 2 inch body lift (not installed, but included)
New BC Steering Box frame area Re-enforcement kit (not installed, but included)
Rust: Yes; typical bronco rust. Worst spots are behind the drivers seat, pass floor pan, and pass rear wheel well area. Some dent issues on the rear driver side and a little on the front drivers fender, see photos. The stock driver seat is pretty trashed, but I have 2 electric power seats from an explorer that are included but not installed. Trans shifts smooth and 4x4 (hubs/transfer case) works as they should. Rear seat in great shape. I have seat belt bolts and bolts for the rear seat, but not the rear seat belts. Other Extra parts: (most not pictured) Spindles/backing plates/calipers/5 lug hub and rotor to convert front drum brakes to disc brakes. Also, some misc door hardware, extra new rear brake shoes, extra front drum(good core from when I replaced both front drums), license plate hardware is not attached to tailgate but is included. I have both uncut quarter panels and both taillight panels, plus an additional used front drivers side fender.
NEEDS:
New windshield wiper blades,
Exhaust system/mufflers from the headers out,
The front drive line u-joint at the transfer case is starting to get sloppy
The carburetor either needs the electric choke wired up or converted to manual choke.
Key to rear hatch door
Body work - It does need both floor pans but I don't have those to include.
Seals around the doors, top, and tailgate are original and rotted.
My plans were to do a wiring harness and drop the gas tanks next. All the original wiring currently works other than the gas gauge and front blinkers sometimes; which don't because of the snow plow removal.
