Can't wait to see this finished. Really coming out nice. Love the dash too! I've been considering a similar concept and now that I've seen yours I'm sold.

Thanks everybody for the motivation. I'm officially sick of working on it, I want to drive it! Taking a lot of will power to not cut any corners in the final stretch.

The dash is attempt 2. First I used spray foam and had the original curved lens and foamed over it and sanded it to shape but I didn't like the way it came out. So we came up with this. It's nice cause if I go big time later and ditch the stock cluster I can just make a new bezel with auto meter guages to go in the old ones place.

Any pictures of that?
I like the idea of a fan switch.. (On/off) as well as for the heat and defrost controls.

So the rear end is done. Just need to finish painting the front end parts and final assembly. Should roll out of the garage on Saturday for a good power washing! Getting close!

Sometimes I have to throw the tires on and take step back and get motivated!

Plans for the front bumper. What you guys think?

Thanks, I was thinking duct tape but for weight purposes figured the blues stuff would be better. Either way its getting painted to look like carbonfiber after I cut speed holes.

Thanks!

More pics to come when the front end is assembled. It will be weird to have outside pics of the bronco, hasn't been off the stands since July... 2011!

Thanks, I got the pitman arm at the leduc swap meet a couple years ago and my buddy built the swinger to match. It came out really nice. I just finished putting it all together and we are gonna roll it out of the garage tomorrow for a bath. Ill take some pics of the steering all together.

It was bad. Deffinately a mudder in its past life. Every time I hit it with a hammer chunks of mud would fall outta some where. It's far from as clean as yours but it'll get there someday.
