"Tiffany"

This is my '66 half cab i bought in November 2006. It's going slow but it's fun, hopefully wont be too much longer.

it was a rust bucket! 3-1-2007

Before it got cut 9-6-2007

had to replace the whole floor in the cab

Doing great! Mine was in as bad of shape, if not worse. All it takes is time, money and love of the work.

That looks great, keep em coming!

 

[bwnieder]

Are you going to stay with that flame pattern?

 

[Juntura]

Are you going to cross the driveshaft over from the Jeep Tcase to the Bronco Axle (Tcase output is Pside and Axle is Dside)? Or am I missing something? Looks REAL nice!

 

[Jonz612]

I put a wide Jeep Dana 30 in the front now, so the drive line drops on the passenger side now. i thought it would be too narrow at first but having it sit in there, it looks fine.

 

[Jonz612]

as for the flames no unfortunately. it is going to be all white. my cousin did those flames one day while we were in the garage. his bronco is on here too check it out;

It all looks great but why a jeep axle and trans case? A dana44 from a 76 or 77 would have had disc brakes, been bolt in and is stronger? Bronco Dana 20 t case is also just about bullet proof for most broncos so why go thru the trouble of mounting a jeep case. But I will say again everything looks real nice!

 

[Jonz612]

i used the jeep setup because i had already decided to use the Borg Warner Super T-10 tranny, and they dont make an addapter for the Bronco Dana 20. if they did i would of left the ford setup in, it would of been alot easier.

Whose rear tire is on the drivers side rear in post #5?

 

[Jonz612]

those are my buddies tires i threw on. they are the same tire and size i am going to use, so we threw them on to see what they look like

 

[oprah]

Tiffany is coming along quite nicely! Wont beat oprah but it will do ok!

 

[Jonz612]

oprah is looking like GOARMY. i think this weekend i will finish the truss on my rear end and mabe start building my bumpers since i am waiting on the front end

 

[Jonz612]

I really like the removeable panel you built into the cowling. Is that your power brake setup under there? Is there still room for your window defrost, steering column, etc? Very unique!

 

[Jonz612]

its just regular brakes and the clutch. its for a hot rod but i wanted the fire wall to be smooth. plus its all hidden under the dash now. i wont have a heat or defrost or ac in it. the column is shortened i will post a picture
