Look what the cat (errr...trailer) dragged in.

What's more exciting then the big brown truck dropping off boxes? The trailer dropping of your newly bedlined and fully caged Bronco. ;D

Just a teaser pic for now since it was getting dark last night. I still have to weld in a rock rail, install doors, tailgate, fender flares, head lights, tail lights, bumpers, spare tire carrier, CB radio, wiper motor, shifters, mirrors, fix a power steering leak and do a tune up.....all before the Stampede this weekend.

That wouldn't have seemed like such a big list before I had kids.

NICE cage-your design???, I also like the deck over trailer. I have a deck over for my full width rig with 42s, another buddy has 44s on his and we are constantly trying to find a trailer for his rig-usually I tow his and we cram mine on another trailer which it hangs off of a bit

Awesome Jon!
You're feeling better than I do... mine won't be out of the body shop until Friday. Bummed that I'll miss the Stampede... but next year for sure!!!

 

[Sbolt19]

Sweet...I want to know more about your cage and some pix if you have em. Did you do it or is it from one of the vendors?

 

[BwoncoHowie]

Nice! Looks like the makins of a really fun vehicle. ...Get busy on her and send more pics.

 

[trlblazr]

Awesome Jon. I wont have mine ready by then but I'm going anyway. See you Sat.

 

[Fugly]

looking good!

 

[ken75ranger]

Nice cage!!

 

[Dan's73]

Looks good Jon....I like the cage too. Who'd you end up going with for it? Seems like the last week has been good for getting work done: I finally got the Crab cage installed last weekend (only sat in my shop for 6 weeks after I got it from you). Now I get to fit it out & decide just how much I want to do to it, then it's back out for powdercoating.

I'm hoping to be back in town & head up to the Stampede Saturday afternoon. Hope I can make it & check everything out!

 

[csjr]

Oh yeah--kids. The great equalizer. I too am interested in the make of your cage. One day I'll get to this point....

 

[BamaBlue'67]

I really like the cage. I might have to steal some ideas from that one.
Please, Post some more pics as it develops.

Looking good, Jon. I watched them work on installing your seats last week when I was down at Randy's. I didn't even recognize your truck at first w/o any blue paint on it . See ya this weekend!

Jon,

That looks great! The thing with kids is ya have to put them to work for ya' to free up your time! My 15 year old will be building his first ride this summer with the old man's help o'course.

Thanks everyone for the compliments. I wish I could take credit for the cage, but it wasn't done by me. It's a company here in Phoenix called Bent Fabrication that's partnered up with Driven Auto. Paul down there really did a great job listening to what I wanted, making suggestions along the way and then executing a very nice cage; fully tig welded, front & rear seats tied into the cage, everything really tight to the dash & floor just the way I wanted it.

I'll take more pics soon, but at the moment I'm falling behind schedule. The only task I got crossed off my list tonight was welding in the rock rail.:-[ Lots left to do.

Get some pics this weekend at the Stampede, it's looking great but we need some action shots to fully appreciate ;D

And talking about kids and cages, a well built one also makes an excellent portable jungle gym

Good lookin' Bronco, Jon, but I really like the innovative uses that Alan has made of his cage! ;D Doc
