Just finished...

[Tazz]

Looks like you though it all out quite well. Nice work.

Those pics brought a tear to my eye:'( It is just beautiful . Very well thought out and engineered . I must however insist that everyone quit calling that a roll bar . I would call it an accent post or light bar ... none the less ... I still love it and hope to see pics of it doing more stuff anything involving sunshine is way better than keeping that stallion in the stable ;D ;D ;D ;D

I have no intention of hiding it in the garage...I built it to drive and have fun!

You are semi-correct in saying that it is not a roll-bar...it is far more than that. It is a 1/4 thick 2x3 tube that is tied to a 2x4 section that is welded to the body under the floor which is bolted to the frame; it is also bolted to the box rails in two places. I hope to never have to test it...but I felt it would stand up better than comparable 'over-the-counter-stuff'.

Dude-that is awesome!! I really like the minimalist approach on the dash and keeping it clean;D

Since you're running the 4R70W, I just wanted to extend an invite to you for my AOD group-

Also wasa curious-what size MAF you're running with that 347?
Is it a Pro-M MAF?

I look forward to seeing more pics with the sun shinning on it , I think it will look even more amazing without artificial lighting

I was hoping that the bar was not as simple as it looked . It is a little on the unconventional side of the spectrum , but that doesn't mean I don't like it . I love your bronco ... gotta have more pics .... ;D

 

[Jimmyjames]

That is a very impressive truck. Your attention to detail is even more impressive. Also dont hesitate posting photos we cant get enough.

Well done again!

Mystery Lights!

Where did you get those pedals from? I will be using the Moon Eyes Big Toe one for the accelerator, but having an aluminum set for the brake and clutch would be very cool!!!

Please share your sources!!!!

Pedals are from Lokar as is the E-brake. I would probably not get any thing to do with cables from them again...the hardware is all aluminum and breaks/strips very easy. Big name but way overpriced for what you get....I could go on and on...

Yes! It is indeed a Pro-M and a 70mm at that...still early but it seems to run just fine. I have the 24lb injectors to match. I am still playing with my TCS and seem to be closest with the '66 file that comes standard with the software. Got to get some other little bugs worked out first.

 

[popp75sport]

one awesome bronco, thanks for the pics. I too would like to see more on the wipers, i have seen cable drive conversions for the bronco before but cant remember where.

Looks great, and I have to take a guess on the color. Not sure of the spelling, Portafino blue.?

 

[mystery lights]

It was a custom mix that I made...I was in the area of 'Perriwinkle' but would not say it out loud.

How 'bout 'Viking's Tunic' or 'Stainless Header Burn' ?;D
