Did I get that right Jim?

Yep. Two broncos getting frame offs. The closer one in pic #2 already had the frame straightened better than factory. Lots of new sheet metal. They just mounted everything back on the frame to verify alignment. Now it's about to come back apart for paint. It will be black on black when done.

The further one has a lower budget but is being completely disassembled and fluffed up with high quality steel and paint work. The guy hasn't decided on color yet, but he has plenty of time.. lol

After this shop finishes these two he will have done 3 EBs top to bottom. Nevermind the round fenders laying on the floor.. those are going on some 1930's hot rod he's working on.

Bummer, I'll be in Newport partying with my kids on the 10th, rented a house on the beach.

eMails in flight to all y'alls that have responded so far for the Bronco Bash in Beaverton on the 17th. ;D

Shawn my transportation is a 4 seater if you want to ride with me. David mentioned Brandon not having a ride so I threw an offer out to him. It would be fun if you want to ride with me either way. Let me know.;)

Thanks Kevin but like I mentioned on the other site I was referring to the West Side Bronco gathering. I think it would be cool to meat some West siders..... there have been a few to cross the river and hang out with us Easties!

I don't need the tree either. My wife mentioned that fact and why I felt the need to go on the tree run still. So I asked her why she felt the need to buy a pair of shoes the other day when she has 30 pairs in the closet.:eek: And I lived to tell you about it!;D

I've been totally hijacked here, but why don't I mind? You crack me up Kevin. Have a good time on the 10th, see y'all on the 17th.

Here's some info on Rene's shop where you'll find us if you're running late and miss us at Jim's house. It is just a few blocks away.

Do yo know if Rene built a 69 not long ago? I think he painted it blue.

I'm almost positive Rene and a friend of his bought my 69 that was sitting in a field in Sherwood. He sent me a few pictures during the build. It would be cool to figure out what they did with it.

Yep that was Rene. That Bronco will be there on the 17th too. I don't know the owner. He never drives it, but I know his son, Ken, and he is bringing it. I think we have 7 Broncos and 9 enthusiasts coming so far. Then add the spouses/dates and it should be a good size group.

That's really cool!! To this day I regret selling it, but it's nice knowing it was restored. The owner bought it in a pile of parts after it sat in the field for a few years. I didn't have a place to work on it :(
