Ride height mock up at Jak's Restoration. John Dixon talked me out of Raven black due to scratches showing up easily. I haven't decided on a color yet but have on a few other subtle changes like a new tailgate, full doors, and stock chrome bumpers.

Thanks!

It's a vehicle John is working on for a customer. It will be completely restored/mod when he's finished and that may take a while since he's got several Broncos getting frame offs in line. He works on it on the weekends.

Things are still moving forward!! John Dixon at Jak's is doing quality work with the floor pan replacement. Most of the metal has been replaced in the floor then he will move to the body panels.

More parts have been ordered such as:
Vintage Air A/C kit
Bronco Design flares
Hood struts from Duff
Double shock mount for the rear

Stock seats have been recovered in black and they look good!

Hindsight is 20/20. I would've kept this a trail rig and made upgrades one at a time if I could go back. Ah well, it will be sweet when it's finished. Almost two years since I've updated but not much has changed.
