Until your brother and you try and out do each other with extended wheelbases, links, bypasses, and a cage.

It'll happen. They're always trying to out do eachother lol. Way to go, if I could compete I would. Both trucks look amazing.
I'm just here for the views. It helps me feel wanted.

Re: Tio Vics Ride #2 codename Jelly 52
For those non believers, Vics bronco had some significant fading in the paint (as did mine). Although we still have not wet sanded his (yes we are going to do it), here is how the paint looks after about 2-3 wax jobs, and its second coat of telfon.
Now this involves clay bar detail wax and teflon coating, but it just goes to show the paint still has life left in it.

Tony, another great X-Wardy ride! Tell Vic not to try and ruin this one too by attempting to drive THROUGH a semi truck!!
See you guys at the races. You going to NORRA? If so, look for the #118 Chenowth 1000....That will be us!

Thanks again Rory! We will likely not be at the NORRA race, but most def at the B500.Wardy wrote:Tony, another great X-Wardy ride!

As for the rig, well Vic has been updating her little by little, primarily working on maintenance right now. He has done the following: the A/C re-done, hoses, belts, power steering, radiator and I am sure I am missing a few things. Once the mechanical stuff is where he wants it, Autofab Hood, and the Wet Sand will be next.

Well, Vic got a new hood... a fiberglass hood from Autofab and I snapped a few pictures of the install and thought I'd post 'em up.

So, now all Vic has to do is to get his paint guy to do the final fiberglass trim and fitment and then shoot the paint! Look'in good!
