Good man, it will be here before we know it! Gonna be a GOOD Time!!

 

[jrcflash]

I love my Bronco too but jeez it is just too hot to deal with in Arkansas right now. It was running and driving until early this spring when one day, I decided to pull my tired motor and it began.

I'm in the middle of a 96 explorer motor conversion that I finally have accumulated all (well -most) of the parts for. Still gotta get a new hydraulic line fitting ordered so my hydro-boost will work with that late model pump. Oh and I'll need to allow time to fab up a two into one exhaust to go behind my new long tube headers. I figure that now must be the time to replace the floor pans since the engine is out, right? Oh wait, since I am this far into it I should go ahead and lift the body off and make the frame all pretty. Once that is done, I need to get new springs ordered. Might as well spring for some Bilsteins too. Then my slots will need to be polished up and a new set of BFGs to wrap them with. Wait, I forgot about the interior. I have a beautifully refurbished gauge cluster, but the dash has to be repainted to show it off. Then my stock seats (all 3) need new foam and coverings. My 4 point cage will need at least a front cage added, but a family cage would be worlds better and perfectly justified, right? Now time for the paint shop. Etc Etc Etc....

I am not saying anything new here. The timeline for me seems to stretch endlessly.

 

[okorangebrnco]

Oh where to begin?!?!?!?! A whole bunch of things, but just to get it trail ready is seats and seat belts along with a carb tune.

 

[KS.76Sport]

I have committed to do "something" on mine everyday or it will never get done. Thus Ive done more in the last 2 months than has been done in the previous 5 years!

By September...

New tires (This week)
Bleed brake system
Weld in the pass floor
New w/s glass
Carb rebuild & new pump
Hang the aux tank run new lines

Got the drvrs pan, inner rocker and door post in last weekend ;D

Wont be pretty but I plan to have it on the road by Aug 19th.

 

[SwampDonkey]

And I though I had a lot to do

That is what is slowing me down.
