Long time build completed. King Ranch theme.

[68Rcodeman]

Well about eight years ago I had some special bumpers made for my King Ranch build from a guy on this forum. Four years and 10K waisted at a shop before pulling it and waiting two years on a list to get it to the right guy. Steve Hines of Shines Customs did me a great job. Such detail and perfection and great communication over the two year build. See you at the Super Celebration.

Minus the Super charger. Mach1 motors had no supercharger.

NICE BUMPERS!! View attachment 917278

They work great? We mounted them high to hide the three inch body lift that we needed to fit the engine up front and the rear helped hide the 23 gallon fuel tank in the rear Also the body lift allowed us to raise the tank higher so it looks factory and not hanging down.

AMAZING JOB!!

Can't believe I was able to go back in my history to 2011 when I bought this rust free beauty on this forum. Looks like the seller hasn't been on here since 2017. This is the before of what It was.

That's insane, what a sweet build

I think there was a new member just a couple of weeks ago asking about putting a mod motor in a bronco. We were mostly trying to convince them of other directions to take, but said that it had been done.
Yours would’ve been a perfect example to show how it’s done!

Thank you all for the kind words about the build. On the 4.6 Modular motor it is very wide. We drilled the spot welds on the inner wheel wells and cut back two inches on each side. Then welded the side drops back and finished like factory. Hope the new member sees the post as I will help in anyway I can.

What a cool build. What are the seats?

What a cool build. What are the seats

They took almost a year to get me both seats. Right side right away and eight more months for the left. I have a set of factory Excursion power seats and heated with cowhide leather but they filled the half cab up to much. So I wasn't with these. They are perfect for the smaller cab.
