i will be going 8hrs a day starting sometime this week. getting the motor back together this week and hanging it on the mounts,tube core support,front clip. out of the garage...............
next is building the rear frame section( stripping other bronco down to frame and setting up rear spring mounts and shock lever(mezzanine arm) then scratching my head for a while on getting the rear section grafted to the front etc.....)
pics will come in a couple weeks after i get a significant amount done for all to pick apart and bash
