Hi all, have not posted in a while, really been slacking. I finally turned my garage into a mini spray booth and did some painting. Since then I'm really making some progress and will add more pics soon. I paint about once every five years so I have to learn again each time. I know,I need wheels and tires.

Thanks Tito, I ran out of room in the dash so I cut a piece of thin aluminum channel and painted to match. Now I still have room for more Stuff.

Thanks for all your comments, a few more after I painted the top. I never have enough room in my garage.

Looking good. Had some flashbacks when I saw the beige primer and red inside. Also mine has the white spokes on it for a roller. Really taking shape, good job.

Wow, that is a nice looking rig. What shade of red is that? The tan looks great with it to. Very nice!

Broncokak, All the colors are stock Ford. The red is Candy Apple red, The other is I believe Light Desert Tan which came out a little later. The paint is Dupont Acrylic Enamel, which is hard to find anymore. I added the gloss hardener so it turned out good for a single stage paint. I'm sure there are alot better paints that are easier to use but I stuck to what Im use to. The interor I used Dupont Vinyl Paint for the headliner, wiper cover and sunvisors, same color as trim.Thanks for all the positve feedback, here are a couple more progress pics.

That looks great. I'm thinking of a red / black combo if and when I ever get to paint mine. You've done a great job with the paint. That's going to be a heck of a nice Bronco when it's done. Keep posting pics of the progress please.
