Got to drive it to work today!

[barronj]

Finally getting to put some miles on her. Had to stop at Home Depot to get a quick fix/patch. I'm waiting on an upper door kit from JBG, and my windshield was contacting the door at speeds.

Anyhow, still piecing together my tan interior.

Heh, my avatar was an orange Hot Wheels bronco for the last year, perhaps that's where you got orange from?

Legend Lime, modeled after the 2006/2007 Mustang, originally featured on 67/68/69 mustangs.

PPG # 43567, I think.

Thanks, originally I was focused on a white roll bar & white flairs... Then I saw the light.

There's a C10 or some early Chebby LWB truck that's two tone, essentially lime green w/ a white patch through the middle of the body. I would see him around South Austin, and know that my color was going to look good. I was originally going blue, then I saw another member's bronco painted Lime gold/white, and it evolved from there.

This is the other member's bronc:

Thanks. It hauls ass too. Gotta be careful.

351, AFR heads, BC exhaust, Edelbrock carb/manifold, E-cam. (added discs, PS/PB)

It will completely light up the 33's from a roll, anytime I get past 1/2 throttle. It's still the 3spd w/ stock 3.50 gears. If I felt like slipping the clutch on 2nd gear, I'm sure I could roll them as well in that gear. I've never been above 2500 rpm in 3rd gear. Don't need to on the highway, from what I've driven so far. I need gear, and an NV3550

Swweet man, nice ride! Congrats

 

[charlien]

what color is your hard top? do you have any pics with it on?

 

[barronj]

White. It's off a newer year (mine's a '68), so I have to drill it before installing it.

Nice ride, I really like the whole look of it.. Enjoy it. One small detail, not trying to be picky. %) You should take the front wheel off, mask your hub and rattle can the part of the axle housing that sticks out past those wheels. I love that green color. Nice choice.

I see that, the front axle, & the rear axle everytime i look at the truck. I should've done that before painting. After it had been painted, I was detailing the column w/ some black, and thought i had everything covered up, but lo & behold, lttle black paint spots showed up on the fenders. I've been reluctant to spray anything since then, and my time is always limited. It will happen.

Just put it on this afternoon.
