I asked for a place where I could share the build of my race Bronco, here it is.
I purchased the project after the basic chassis had been built and the body had been hung so we start from there.

Dave,
Awesome build. I love seeing this rig progress.
By the way, what's doing with that 80s Black Bronco?

That black Bronco belongs to my brother, he is building a prerunner that is coming along nicely. Hopefully he will join and post the build.

Wow... that thing is a beast!
Whats up with the interesting geometery on the beam pivots? Did your fabricator use silicon-bronze rod when welding your beams?

Is he keeping it old school with the original front grille?
