Full Disclosure!

OK, I will fess up. when I went to take the Bronco out for its' first shakedown run (to calibrate the digital speedo) It had mysteriously dropped 3rd gear :mad:
So I was VERY frustrated because I just KNEW I would be driving it around soon... I had to backburner it in order to blow off some steam and not do something I would later regret. While I was on Bronco hiatus, I built a tow rig, and got my dream car (of course I had to modify them both! I got a 1991 GMC 1500 stepside and converted it into a 454SS truck (although it is a 468). And the 2004 Corvette (with 5200 original miles) I had to upgrade the stereo/nav and do wheels/rotors on it. Here are the pictures to summarize my distractions.. but now I am back on track with the Bronco !

Of course here's the NEXT project in line after the Bronco! 1970 Maverick Grabber

Nice looking truck, vette, but more importantly the interior on the bronco looks bad ass!

Just discovered and read through your build. Nice job. Thanks for the weather striping prep advice. I will be installing new weather striping in a few weeks. Keep the updates coming, you have fine looking rig there.
