Ha ha... I always "Say" i'm gonna paint stuff. Lots of good intentions but it usually catches some scotch brite before it ever sees paint

Thanks Tony! I know it goes without saying but your bronco is looking absolutely perfect! Can't wait to see how the 9" install comes out! Icing on the cake.

Appreciate it!! Slowly making progress on the 9. Should be done at currie in a week or two, and then the install comes........

We gotta get out and wheel, I miss seeing white lightning!!

The last of the exhaust stuff didn't arrive as scheduled from UPS due to the storm is Texas, so I had to make a trip to the pull yard for some misc exhaust components.

Got to Pick Your Parts in Sun Valley right at 8, and since last weekend was a holiday they were doing half off day. Holy shit was that place a ZOO.

There were at least 200+ in front of me at this point and about 150 behind me

Alright got what I needed and was home by noon, here is about two hours into the project.

Few hours after that it was all in and mounted.

Probably had about 6 hours into the job all said and done, lots of cleaning up to get it to this point but I am happy with how it turned out. Oh I used three exhaust hangers this time instead of just one, so hopefully that keeps it lasting longer then before.

Breakfast the day after I finished the exhaust. I was able to get both of my woman in the same picture

Oh and this just arrived today!

Looks like I gotta get on to building a center console ASAP.

I like that license plate frame! The exhaust looks bitchen!

How does the spin tech sound??

Sounds good. Would probably sound better without the cat, but I gotta keep it legal. Not sure what I am going to work on tonight but I'll be sure to take pics.
