Duffy's 77 Build Thread- Restomod, daily, re-uncut

[duffymahoney]

I just went through your entire build 47 pages, what great attention to detail but even better is how you communicated your steps to the Bronco world. Wow and thanks!

Thanks!

I don't have those panels anymore..

I can't fathom putting another thing through my firewall and hiding it behind my dash and the amp controller is fully waterproof so I decided to mount the controller and my waterproof relays (positive trigger to negative) on the aux tank strap holder. Should keep it out of the way keep the wiring clean. I already have power, ground and door triggers in this area from my aux transfer pump and interior LED's. Off to powder coat, then I will wire the whole system up.

Steps got cut down to 38" without the caps.

When you get those amp steps all mounted up I would appreciate a pic of how they ended up fitting under there.

For sure, I will post how it all fits and works.

Wired and ready to install, I hope this mount works, it sort of looks like it was designed to hold it. Plus it was a pain to wire and make it look tidy.

Stainless custom 1977 23 gallon gas tank is coming along! Hopefully tack it all up tonight.

Re fitment is done and finally getting some paint. Really digging the white!

You are a patient man. I can't believe you are getting it repainted. It is gonna look awesome in the end!

I don't believe anyone has ever called me patient

77 gas tank brackets are done. Hopefully tacking the whole thing up tonight.

Wow I am digging the dash and paint color.

This is version 3 of the dash color!

Looks good man..

2nd hardest decision of my build. Just after picking a paint color, especially white. Powder coat black or leave my bead blasted stainless faux icon grill the way it is. I think I will wait till my build is done to make the decision.

I think I would leave it as is. It looks great....

Dash version 3.0 is done. I am so happy with the billet, turned knobs and stereo choice. It really came together.

Definitely leave it as is. Adds needed contrast. Imho which I obviously don't hesitate to give. Btw, The white looks fantastic!

Duffy, I noticed all the Phillips head screws in your dash have the heads oriented exactly the same. Good job!

Haha. Well I would say all on the bronco are

Dash looks great and as for the Grille, I would leave it as is as well. Looks really good! ;D
