Ah status....well its still in my driveway hahah...Either today or thursday it should be heading up to the shop. I got hit with a few things that also have slowed progress. I will get pics up once the build really gets moving. I did get the underside pressure washed and a bunch of interior stuff pulled for prep. I have a few things to order next payday too. I am hoping to start pulling parts off the front end by the weekend so I can get them all to their new owners and roll the cash.

Well a quick update on things...The Polarcub made its way to Hesperia Fri afternoon via towtruck to Desert Concepts where it will be calling home for the next month or so. I went up Saturday to do the wheel/tire swap sine Agui was able to help me out with a set of tires and wheels that will be used for just being able to move the thing around. I gotta say though the look of my bronco on 32s is amazing.... :cry: NOT!

Hopefully the front suspension will be starting very soon..When the coilovers go in we are going to tiddy up the engine compartment by doing a new core support along with new mounting structure for the fenders tying in off the engine cage. Along the way a few maintenance items will be getting handled as well like a new steering box and a few things like that. Hopefully I will be able to keep things updated.....

Okay not a big update but I was at the shop today and the hoops/buckets were pulled and the radius arms came off. Things are starting to move now that the new shop is moved into. The cad work is being done and I have secured a set of 37" Baja T/As with 17" wheels. Still have to order the rear housing and at least a set of rear bumps from Bilstein. If the money is there a new set of Bilstein bumps up front otherwise its a set of foxs until I can put the money together. Here is how the bronco sits for now....

Ha nick...it doesnt seem like it was all that long ago I was picking those hoops up from you...Then it was a weekend in my parents driveway. Funny thing was yesterday when I was pulling everything apart I was just thinking about that very day. Yes I am very excited things will be moving slowly but they are moving. Desert Concepts has a suprise or two for me that Bryan has been hinting about so we will see what happens. One of the goals though is to really clean up the engine compartment and do some of the detail things that cause a rig to standout. If all goes well next summer will be the cage. I wish I could just do it right now but that is not realistic. The rear bedsides will be coming in next week too. Thanks for the compliments everyone!

Yes it does....its been a paperweight for now but their are some plans for it.....I do know that it could be had for a steal if someone is interested. I really want to get that back out in the dirt it needs a few things but not much.
