Is there a 12 step program for "Pondering"?

"...powerless over saber saws and my grill had become unsalvageable."

Still not done yet, still not dead yet. Had serious misgivings. No turnin' back now.... Worst case scenario, they make new old grills every day and I can look just like every other Bronco, sort of.

Lol about the steaks! Remember the Paul Harvey "Rest of the Story" radio episodes? I'll take some pics today that will fill in some blanks I've left out. Really pleased to be a part of this forum, at any rate.

Keep going and then you will need some rally pack gauges. Maybe a Mustang console and pony seat covers, black nylon loop carpet. A factory GT Bronco. Maybe some old school chrome side pipes for that distinctive rumble. Maybe a Ford Weber intake too.

See I am just a sick as you are.

Hey don't quit this might just come out on the cool side of the scale yet. It's a refining process as you know. I for one wan't to see where this rabbit hole leads you. As my first boss said to me when I came to work for him. "Don't be afraid and don't break anything you can't fix." That advice seems to have served me well. Still I get what your saying about needing a 12 step program for run away creativity. Have you seen my build thread? https://classicbroncos.com/forums/showthread.php?t=285454 My Bronco Rabbit Hole runs deep with many branches.

I'm heading to jonpblewis' rabbit hole after I feed my tapeworm, but first here's a peek at the missing link, rest of the story teaser - I tried using the plastic grill inserts of a dodge (actually, several Dodges) pick up and glueing them together. Musta O.D,ed on the glue.....

Yes, I have, jonbplewis! I didn't catch that you were that guy, I figured the moniker was "Tinman", silly me. Man, you must never sleep with that mega level of creativity and skill!

Haha, I like the "Tinman" moniker. Unfortunately I wasn't paying attention back when I created my membership and entered am email address in the field where a user name was meant to go. I guess once you submit your sign up info it becomes baked in.
Funny, I guess great minds think alike. Your tapeworm joke reminded me of a comical idea I had years ago for a no diet weight loss program involving the sale of pharmaceutical grade Tapeworms or "Little Buddies" I think I was going to call the program "Symbiotics". See the great ideas never stop. lol Cheers.

As the saying goes, "In for a dime, in for a dollar." At times, I kinda wish it only was a dollar. Followed Crush's suggestions, a few tweaks and quite few ticks of the clock and, imho, starting to shape up. If it doesn't, like turbotim2 said, I can always use the grill for a grill. Btw, imho, it doesn't look like a Scout anymore.....
