Hey Rich, it was a real treat to stop by and check out your '67 restoration project. It looks great! Your garage is quite impressive too.

I'm looking forward to seeing the Bronco at Broncorama this weekend.


Thanks again,

Very nice job. I love looking at this thread. It's inspiring me to get my ass in gear on my '67 and '68 U13' restorations. I'm very impressed with the attention to detail and correctness in the engine bay.

It looks like it is coming down the assembly line! Looking great! Your dash and the seats really match well. It looks like the dash is not gloss, but parchment, which is "satin"...That looks great. I see some restorations where the dash is glossy which isn't correct and it doesn't look right on a "correct" restoration.

I know you are at the point in the restoration process where it is hard to stop working on it, because it is changing so fast (with every part you assemble) and looking so good!!! Congrats!

I like this photo. It shows the "mirror" finish the paint has, and another cool bronco in the back ground!

Another long day. I took this week of work and I'm working harder than ever. Between the Bronco and playing Mr. Mom all week it's been a bit busy.


More progress today. See pics

Took the maiden voyage and filled her up with gas. Had to adjust the carb but other than that she drove very well.

Thank to my sidekick Carper for being the painted parts delivery guy all week and lending a hand as needed.

Time for some beers
