    NJ Prerunner style tube Bumpers

    I sold the rear, still have the front. It's a plate mount, not the frame horn mount. I went back and forth for a while between wanting to keep it or wanting to go chrome. I eventually swapped to the chrome last year.

    3 Speed unable to engage reverse

    That's what I thought. I'm gonna buy a rebuild kit and get on it. Is any kit better than the others? (Tom's, WH. JBG etc)

    3 Speed unable to engage reverse

    I have a 3 speed transmission with an older floor shifter unit. Shifter unit was rebuilt a couple years ago and has been mostly great. I had some issues getting into reverse last year, butg was able to remedy this problem by going through my linkage and adjusting. This year the Bronco has...

    AM Radio rechrome

    This one was the less good of the two. You can see in the close up some of the potting that remained. I didn't have the opportunity to see this one before it was re chromed so I can't speak to the before/after surface condition.

    AM Radio rechrome

    One of my customers for my stock faceplate/Bluetooth radio had two faceplates done by DGM Chrome in Philadelphia, and Don the owner there did a very nice job. I do not have much experience with getting stuff rechromed, but I have heard that the finished product depends on the condition of the...

    Replica dash knobs

    Yeah, I did a lot of sanding (though 1000 grit ) for the 68-77 knobs, only a little bit of sanding on the white part of the 66 knobs. The white part is printed as well, and as I said, lightly sanded. It is printed separate from the black main body. Thanks for the interest and consideration...

    Replica dash knobs

    Thanks! I started doing the design/modeling of the 68-77 knobs above in order to support my RestoModern Radio project. I have been looking at the 66 knobs for a while but left it on the back burner. But this week I had 3 sets of the 1966 knobs in my shop, as I was modifying them for a...

    Replica dash knobs

    Took a crack at the '66/Econoline/F series knobs. I'm very pleased with how they came out. (near one in both the photos is from Ford, far one is mine)

    Factory radio assembly help

    If you are looking to add some more modern connectivity like bluetooth but keep the ACTUAL stock appearance as opposed to the plastic imitation that RetroSounds sells, you may like to take a look at this thread...

    RestoModern Radio, Bluetooth solution for stock faceplate

    Heyo! Trip was great! We almost got skunked by the Yosemite closings, but managed to get into the park and have the valley all to ourselves! Also swung through Pinnacles and Big Sur. We did stop at WH in between SF and Yosemite. There are no Bronco vendors near me, so it was nice to be able to...

    RestoModern Radio, Bluetooth solution for stock faceplate

    It was kind of a custom build, but the wiper motors should be the exact same mounting pattern as rhe dual electric setups from wildhorses etc. There's more info here. Some links may be dead, I'll try and update with part numbers at some point soon. Thread 'Synchronized Dual Electric Wiper...

    Cell phone mounts and options

    Oh man, was thinking about doing something for exactly that today! I really would love a mini tool kit in there,. Tom's. WH etc sell something like that. But I also might just drop my fresh air vent box back in :)

    Cell phone mounts and options

    Well, finally got around to this and it was easy enough. Updated my model with new specs for my phone and printed the new one on my new multicolor setup. The old one (up top) needed to have colored resin poured into it and get sanded back. Even then it wasnt super clean. New one is straight off...

    RestoModern Radio, Bluetooth solution for stock faceplate

    I really like having my windshield mount for the phone when I need navigation as well. Really loving my new 3d printer setup! When I made this mount last year I did the horse and script by leaving negative space in the plastic and filling with colored epoxy resin, and then sand everything down...

    Long time, first time: My 74 Build Thread

    Thanks! I'm very proud of how that came out, especially given how many unknowns there were heading into it. Its something I would have wanted to do with my first Bronco but wouldn't have had the skill to implement well. But that's the cool thing about skills, the more you use and test them, the...

    Soft top bow silencer kit

    Unrestored-original.com is the website. Strange it isn't working for you, I clicked the link on my phone and desktop and it worked. Let me know if you are still having difficulties, though there is more info here than there is there.

    Long time, first time: My 74 Build Thread

    I've been lazy about posting on this, but also haven't done too much to it over the fall and the winter. I DID fix that thermostat housing leak mentioned above, but still haven't tackled the rusted core support bracket, and it's still leaky :) Most of my winter was spent developing the...
