Do you have a build thread for your new project? I'm curious to see how it is coming along.

Hey Thom,
No build thread as of yet. Spending a bunch of time just planning and figuring out how to build the car. There have only been a handful of the GT-Rs made and even less build threads around so hard to obtain information. I did join the GT40 forum which helps. I also started the fiberglass work today. Boy that is ball of laughs. Not. You need to swing by and take a look.

Mr. CA Bronco....
I know I have been asking about wheels for my Bronco, but I am asking about your choice in wheels and tires for a friends 71 Bronco.
What size and brand wheels? and what size and brand tires?
Beautiful Bronco......

Mark

Hi Mark,
Sorry about the late reply. I've been laid up in the hospital with appendicitis and a few other old guy issues. I went with Wild Horses on the Wheels. They are 17" Trail Ready beadlocks. I bought the tires locally. They are 35x12.50R17 LT Nito Trail Grabber NTs. I hope this helps.

Hey Rob, Mr. ntsqd pointed me your way today. Best wishes for a good recovery! Speaking as a certified Old Guy, I can say that it's better to have Old Guy issues, as much as I wish I didn't, than, to, well... not get to be an Old Guy!

I have enjoyed following your project. I am about to start my first frame off restoration on my 71 Baja I just purchased. I am presently looking for a really good body and paint guy . The Bronco has no rust so I am excited about that. A little nervous but it should be fun.

That looks like a nice one. It does not appear to need much body work. Have fun with the build.
