Well I guess I'm way overdue on getting some progress posted but trying to get myself motivated to try and start hitting this a bit harder.

Hitting the smaller stuff for now and awaiting some more sheet metal parts.
This is the passenger rear inner fender repair.

Looking good Dave! I have a plasma cutter if you want to borrow it to cut patch panels out of the flat stock you have.

Eww! That rocker...I think I just puked a little bit. Probably happy to cut that crap out. Keep that up and you'll have a shiny new Bronco in no time.

A Belated thanks guys.

Did a repair on the passenger rear wheel well to extension panel.
Have a high weld area I still want to hit a litle bit more but came out acceptable.

Also put together a couple of cowl supports. Nice to repurpose the crappy Aero tank brackets.;D

Little more progress.
Blasted the E-brake assy and accelerator pedal over the winter and just got to priming/painting recently.
Pulled the passenger outer and inner rockers.
Too deep in to turn back now.%);D

Anybody know where to purchase this piece? Haven't seen them around.
I can repurpose if needed just figured be cheaper to just buy one if available.
I believe it's the passenger seat or lap belt support bolt/bracket.
