Made some headway tonight on the project. Removed seats and top. Took all the glass out to so I can get some repair work done. Where I have some rust around the passenger side rear window.

Side note Mr Ford didn't plan on the top really being "removable" did he? lol I removed 10lbs of nuts and screws.


Hey!!! Let me hold a dollar I'm in the middle of a restore here!

Amazing the things you "have to have" to do these broncos, portable impact wrenches, welding tables, band saws....:) I am also going to restart my welding hobby, been to the metal/welding store a few times and I keep eyeballing their already made welding table they label it as "980lbs of welding bliss"

We just got a new Rural King here that has a dedicated section for welding, looks like I will get real familiar with it.

Just get a set from the vendors as they are under $100, they need the beads rolled in them to keep them from being wavy.

Have not had a lot of time to work on the floors. So no updates. She's sill sideways in the garage though. Wifey wants her parking spot back though. So I guess I better find the time to get back on it.

Here's an update: I was out of town all week and just got home a few hours ago. Wife got me a tool chest and cabinet. She said, she knew I wanted one and this would help me stay organized. Then threw the tag, that way I spend less time looking for tools and more time working so she could get her parking spot back sooner.
