Thanks

Van, I'm looking forward to seeing this come together. You always build some cool, cutting edge stuff!

Thanks Drew! We are looking foward to completing it too! It's a big undertaking, but I'm excited about the pontential outcome. If it comes out anywhere near what I have in my head it's going to be awesome!

[QUOTE For those of us not in the know; what's your business? Are you a custom Bronco building shop or equipment vendor, etc.? Do you have store front or online presence? What kind of Bronco services do you offer? Or is all of this just really slick personal/private business stuff?

My business is Tumblin Automotive, you may have seen our add in Bronco Driver or some articles on our builds. I own a general repair shop, but have been building Broncos on the side for years. Our specialty is late model drivetrain. I enjoy doing the seemingly impossible, we have done everything from a Powerstroke to now this. This is the first year we started building Broncos full time. Anything from stock to as crazy as you want custom builds. We also did the engine & transmission install in the Bronco Driver Project Screamin Demon. I hope to have a website up soon, as we do offer products for all late model drivetrain installation. Here's a pic of our adapter for the 6R80 to an Atlas. We also offer the adapter for the Dana 20. The motor mounts we sell will also work on the coyote.[/QUOTE]


Love it... :)

Yeah, I've talked Herman & Jay about his build. There are several builds on here that have bought products from us. Within the next couple of months I hope to have answers to most all the question concerning the Coyote. We have a toned down Coyote build about to start which will also run the 6R80, but all the other drivetrain will be mostly stock.

Don't try this at home!

Yes, we are assembling a new body. It's not quite as easy as I once thought! It takes a lot of time to get the body lines and door gaps right, especially with aftermarket sheet metal!

Progress

Any updates?

We are getting back to this project now. Waiting on the coilovers, wheels, & tires to come in but we have the rear links and mounts done. Now we are working on the front links and exhaust, we already have the headers made. It's going to be tight to get a 4 link in the front but I think we are going to be able to make it work. Here are a few recent shots.

Looking great Van. If you keep posting these great "progress shots" you are going to cost me some fuel to make a little road trip :)
