It has begun! Sheyla's dream build 1973 Half Cab

[904Bronco]

Beautiful Jim...
And you are never going to get to drive it after it is done, as after all these years Shayla will be driving the wheels off it!

Sure is purdy! Got some nice out of the box touches, beautiful paint. Not a criticism, but I think I would do the grill in the grey. Hmmm, seems I'm stuck on grills lately...

Hey Jim, how’s the build coming along?

Pics be nice huh

Yep, this project is still moving along. Very happy with the paint and body work from Dave at Virga Customs. Cage Dave as he is known here in NorCal. He did the cage too.;D It's two tone black and magnetic metallic grey. Finally got to use my custom tailgate. We used two old bulk heads to make storage behind the front seat. Now time for me to go back to work. Still a lot to do but it's coming together nicely.

Jim, just noticed the inner fenders, nicely done.

Added fuel lines today. The project is still alive. Here's some pics to mess with your neck.%) Door panels, dash wiring etc. Keeping the engine compartment very clean so the A/C thing is under the front passenger fender. Stone guards will be added. One piece window kit. Short billet window cranks installed (coming soon). Seat and upholstery will be last. List of stuff that needs to be done.
1. Cooling system
2. Hydroboost plumbing
3. Steering reservoir
4. Stereo
5. Air dam
6. Bleed brakes
7. Finish wiring
8. Power steps
9. Bed lighting
10. Make sure I put oil in everything.;D
And more.

Looks beautiful and gives me hope that mine isn't too far gone.

The shortened chrome bumpers are dyn-o-mite! Way cool!

Progress! Just keeping at it and little by little this rig is getting done. We made a lot of extra room so we are running a new Spal brushless fan. Also have some new Explorer brackets to hold the A/C comp. and Delphi pump. I have to put in a few more Saturdays but I think we will be firing it up relatively soon.
