If your not going to rollbar it, make sure you only ride solo and dont jeopardize anyone who thinks that may even be close to safe on the road...

Very nice Bronco. Glad to see you got the picture thing figured out.

Although Andy is reminding me of my ex-wife (Just kidding, Andy ;) ) he really does have a point about the roll bar. Even if you just drive it on the street, without the top or a roll bar, if something were to happen, you really would be SOL (do Canadians understand SOL... ). Doesn't have to be you're fault. You can be the most careful driver in the world, and meet up with some a$$hole at the worst time... We just want to keep everyone in our Bronco family safe. :cool:

That was worth the wait! Beautiful bronco. Showed it to my wife and she said she likes the door inserts better than the full doors. That's great b/c my doors have some serious rot. They gotta go.

very nice looking bronco ;D , but i agree with the rollbar, sacrificing some looks for safety is a worthy trade off, plus it wouldnt look all that bad with a rollbar, you might find you like the looks of it

Yep, roll cage. Then you could brace up that windshield frame, and add some seat belts that would help if you have an accident. Mighty straight and mighty fine looking Bronco you got there.

For that truly streamline look you have to cut the door window frames off. If your not gonna do that you might as well get the rollbar.

Very nice. I like the color.

I didn't realize there was such a soft spot for putting a roll bar. I might just have to put it back on. I would of really like to cut the door frames for that streamline look but decided to keep them on. Got a half cab for it.

There have been plenty of posts on here about guys that rolled their Broncos on the street due to someone cutting them off, stopping too quickly, etc. I'm sure if you search under Roll Over you can find some of the examples.

Glad you got the pics worked out. Nice touch on the seats with the BRONCO embroidery.

Thanks for the help admin. It's funny I would of thought I'd have for comments about the embroidery, you're the first. Looks good eh!! I somewhat regret not embroidering the rear though. I was thinking it would be to much..

did you have someone local make the covers and do the embroidery at the same time, or did you take them the covers to have done?

A good freind of mine his Father is the best around here. He does most of the old car clubs cars. Old seats were completely stripped He made them from scratch I never bought seat covers. I took a peice of material to a local embroidery shop where they do sports uniforms and stuff. I brought him the bronco logo and had him creat my own program on a computer. From there he programs it into and embroidery computer and stiches it into the material. Took the peice back to Denis and he incorporated into the seat. I got some cool ball caps made aswell. Maybe I should sell them here. Very nice looking. simple.
