Working away on this never ending project! Got allot done this past month, got the motor leveled out, way to close to the firewall. All of the wiring looms are complete to the tub. Waiting on the BC Vintage Air to install before finishing the wiring. Most of the sensors and wires are done for the Dakota digital, just need to find a place to mount the box. Once the air is in I will have a better idea the wire layout.

Next:
wire stereo and amp
finish Amp steps
finish 6R80 gear sensor and re wire to cab
seats
roll cage
bumpers

Damn that thing looks clean.... I wouldn't work on that unless I was wearing brand new flannels... new every day.

Super clean looking cage. Have any detailed pics of how it attaches at the front?
Very nice interior. And that blue! Wicked looking Bronco-blue for sure. I'm sure you've said, but what is it again?

Keep on keepin' on. There's light up there at the end of the tunnel and I don't hear any choo-choo train horns a'comin just now!;D

Four years and two months ago I started this project with zero experience building Broncos, no welding experience, just a great sense of adventure. My Bronco is a week away from the muffler shop. Thank you to all my friends on this site that have helped me, especially Dirt Donk!

Very Nice! Congrats on getting done, beautiful work as well. I wish I had been able to finish mine in that amount of time.

Holy canoli! Four years already? I remember the first few questions still!
Thanks for the shout out. Always appreciate the kind words.
But all I did was provide some minimal encouragement. The energy, enthusiasm and new-found skills were all you.

Or as the Waterboy's supporters used to say... "You can do it!"
Looks great. Can't wait to hear it run. You ARE going to provide some much anticipated video in full Technicolor, Surround-Sound and accompanying narration. Right?;D

Congrats on the successful completion. And everything else along the way too!

And I have enjoyed the project and your comments over those 5 years. Now get it out there and drive the wheels off it!
