Yeah I have a guy in Houston that has a hood for us. If he could meet up with you coach do you have room foor it?? Let me know and I will talk to him.

Shawn Webster has a real nice hood that will be on Bob's truck when the time comes....
I think Shawn has a lot of small stuff too.
I think he has been in contact with Cory from what he said.

Could someone PM me the addy for the "super secret OBB website?" I have some odds and ends that I could contribute if needed.

Thanks,
Greg

I dont think any of us would do this but I just want to make it clear. DO NOT COME TO THE OBB AT THE OCBR WITHOUT REGISTERING FOR OCBR. This is not a free ticket in and we need to make sure and support the OCBR. I dont think any of us would do this but I want to make it clear that everyone will frown :mad: :mad: at you if you dont register. Thanks guys.

We at OCBR want to be sure everyone understands that we think OBB is a really cool idea. We just have to be sure, because it is an organized event, that we have covered all of the liability issues. If you are coming just to work on OBB, you have TWO OPTIONS! If you don't own a Bronco, or don't want to register for OCBR, you must register with the park office and sign the waiver of liability that they have there. Park fees, in this case, are a decision for the park to make. If you own a Bronco and either bring it, or bring proof of ownership, you can register with OCBR and participate in our events as well as work on OBB. Park fees are included in our registration fee. We are looking forward to everyone having a really good time! IF YOU ARE GOING TO REGISTER FOR OCBR, PLEASE SEND YOUR REGISTRATION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO WE CAN GET T-SHIRTS AND MEALS ORGANIZED!!!!

;D Update as of this morning: John says he hasn't received anything in the mail, but it is only slowing him down, not stopping him. We should be seeing some more pics soon. I talked with Ben today, I will be meeting him at the shop tomorrow afternoon to get the 9"BB he brought. That is about all that is going on right now. I hope everyone is having a great day! Thank you all again so very much for all your support in this. It still seems too good to be true! ;D

Here's a few pics of what we did last night. Filled the holes from the reflecters and the spare tire mount, spot of rust on the right quarter. Straightened the damage to both quarters. Recut the wheel openings and smoothed them out. Basically all the sheetmetal work is done on the quarters. The left rocker is really butchered up but I think we can save it.

Looks great! Thanks for the pictures and the updates, each one I see makes me even more proud to be an American!

I think the world would be a much better place if everyone drove Broncos :cool:
