Well I have been putting off cutting my new front fenders for my flares for a while now . And after all that waiting I wish I would have done it along time ago . It looks pretty good with them cut and matching flares all the way around . I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel ;D
Here are a few pics of where I am at on my build .

Thanks for the complements it is nice to hear that from other bronco owners being this is my first bronco build .

The tires are Kumho M/T 33X12.50X15 The flares are fiberglass ones from
BC broncos and the seats are a Craiglist special originally from a Mazda miata ;D . I am also going to run a pair of the same seats in the back . They fit perfect in between the wheel wells .

I havent had it on the road yet but they are very comfortable to sit in . I dont plan on doing much crawling in this bronco so I didnt want seats with very tall sides on them . They are easy to get in and out of . And a added bonus is that some of them have speakers in the top of the headrest area . :cool:

Looks Good

Hey Robert-
Are you sure this is your first Bronco build? Looks like your an old pro at this. Nice job! From what little I can see, I like what you've done with the dash.
On mine, not sure I can see light at the end of the tunnel, maybe just a little glow. When mine gets a little further along I'll come over and check yours out in person. Got a few little pieces left to paint and then start re-assembly. Couple weeks or so.
Keep the pictures coming.

Hey Gary you dont have to wait until yours is done to come by just on over ;D . Hey did I buy a hood from you a while back one of those pictures in your gallery looks like the place off of IH 35 I picked up a hood a couple of months ago . As far as being an old pro I have been called worse :-X But I will admit I have been a autobody painter for abought 25 years now and have done alot of early mustangs but this is really my first bronco build . It is alot like a mustang except after the suspension was intalled I dont have to jack it up to get under it any more to work on it . ;)

That looks beatiful... where is that roll cage from?

don't for get your vice grips: http://img213.imageshack.us/my.php?image=july08013if5.jpg

The cage is from CompleteOffroad and as far as the vicegrip thats not the only one hanging of the bronco . It still hasnt made its first trip around the block . I will have to go all over it to make sure there isnt anything that is going to fly off when I take it out .

Hood

If the hood worked out for you, Yep, you got it from me.
If it was too rough and didn't work for you, then I don't know who that guy was that sold it to you was!

Looks great.Welome to the cut club.

Thanks
The first real clean bronco I had was a 66 uncut tub and I just coudnt see cutting it and I couldnt see me restoring a bronco back to the original look . I was driving a rusty 71 but it was cut and looked to cool, rust and all ;D
So I new that if I was going to put alot of work and money it was going to be lifted and cut !:cool:

Now if I could only make up my mind on what color combination I am going to go with . I am thinking either solid Dodge Viper Red or red and black two tone.
