Tell John those radius arm brackets straddle the frame on either side...like they are now won't last long. You would think he would know that :p

Bought a Corbeau seat from one of our vendors here, Classic City Off Road in Athens, GA. Very good people to work with and friendly. I highly recommend them and to check our vendor section here for good deals and good people. The seat will probably have to be moved forward from the stock mounting holes because of the fuel cell in the back. We had to do a fuel cell because the rear axle is pushed back. This is a Bailie Bilt spare tire carrier built by Gordon Bailie called a "spare gate" that is reversible. It can also swing open from either side to allow access to the back. Very neat design. I had it on my black 71 half cab that I owned a couple of years ago. John was trying it out to see which way would fit the best. Bought some Duff trail doors from Michael at OCBR. That guy is a smooth talker :D I had a set of their take off hinges so these will work perfect. The Duff hinges are the beefiest ones available and high quality. It was no question which hinges and trail doors to buy for me.

Sold this Bronco to buy a house. I will keep posting pictures of John's work until it's done since I still have another Bronco at his shop and will get to see the progress... I'm sad because it was going to be my dream Bronco but family comes first.

Do you have a number for Jaks Restoration? A guy I know is looking for a restoration shop and I am too busy.
