Well, I picked up this bucket for $500.00 and I've started tearing her down. I know she doesn't look like much but after watching Bronco bens,Taxx and Monkybiz threads I hope to have some sheet metal work going in a few weeks and onely hope i can do as good of job as they have done or are doing.(Thanks for the motivation guys)This is my second Bronco I had a brain F#*t and sold the first before I had it done. :'( This one will be done right from the frame up.(I know I have my work cut out for me but it's what I love to do).Keep the good info coming guys I'll need all the help I can get. ;D

hey cool! that bed panel is in pretty good shape. Glad to see someone else with a good project bronco. I'll be glad to pitch in all my info I can muster up. I'm learning as I go. Little tips from Big O, 2bad,taxx, monkybiz, flash, and trail have all be gathered up in this big ole noggin of mine as well as many more peoples ideas.......hopefully you will have as much fun as I'm having while building mine. "Some people see a rust bucket, I see a blank canvas to build a dream"..........keep the faith brother!

Damn, Steve, that's a great project for $500. Mine only looks a little better than that and it was waaaay more money. Guess I should have shopped a little harder across the Mississippi River? Anyway, good luck. If Greenbrier is close to Memphis or Hot Springs, I usually divide my time between the two and could help out if you need some labor...

Just PM me when you need the labor... I tend to have time off during the week, and occasionally weekends. I can't promise skilled help, haha, but I'll do what I can.
