1975 Build Thread

[Cole Weyand]

Working on the tub lately, Front door post all finished up and sealed up. Moved to the passenger side rocker and found someone handy work. About a one inch of bondo on the side. So next on the list new rockers on each side. But for now some painter tape to cover the massive hole in the rocker.

More work done on this tub, wheel tubs and front half is painted. Fixed the passenger side core support mount. Then finishing painting the front.

 

[Cole Weyand]

New dash and placed a 35 to see how this bronco will look. After some more painting it will be ready to be placed on the frame.

It almost time to finish the frame. Brake lines and fuel line are installed. Making sure everything looks some what factor. Hopefully in a couple of weeks the tub will be installed. Also removed the passenger head for the like 5th time to make clearance.

35 looks pretty good on the rear…but will it clear everything on the front? Not sure if you’ve checked it on the front yet.
Anyhow, it’s looking good, Cole.

Definitely will in the end, it will be a 4.5 lift. Should be able to run a 36 or 37 comfortably.

Looking good. I dig the yellow highboy in the background of one of the pics

Nothing like having a plan…or planning…anyway, looking forward to seeing the results!
