Project "?" update -Latest pics!!

[BlazinCopper]

Getting Close!!!!!!! I'm really glad I took all your advice on painting it Green, I wasn't a big fan of green until I painted this color. Now it's one of favorites. Thanks

Well, I finally got the body painted. I still have to paint the flares and top. The keyless entry and power windows are in and working. Kinda funny to see an old Bronco with rubber wire looms when you open the door . I've done so much the last few weeks, I don't know where to start.
Everything in the engine compartment has been powder coated chrome and finally put back on. I'm in the process of putting the air conditioning in, door panels are in with the power window switches, all new window felt, mounted the flush mount gas cap, finished the hydroboost and disc brake setup, new front windshield, there's alot more, but I need to go to bed so I can get back up in the morning and work on it. Hopefully I will be finished in about 2 weeks (I feel like I've said that before ) I'll post more pics as I get them.

Looks good! Did you chrome the fan?

 

[BlazinCopper]

[sprdv1]

[BlazinCopper]

Updated and new pics added check top

 

[sprdv1]

Keyless & power windows huh.. Got all the necessities. LOL

I like the color. Looking good man.

Nice job! love the color.
I didn't know you could powder coat the tailgate arms. Does the coating get between the pivot points? What kind of power window mechanism are you running?

 

[BlazinCopper]

No. the tailgate arms work great, after you powder coat them they may stick just a little, but they free up real easy, I powder coated just about everything that would unbolt.
I used a universal power window kit, works awesome. It took some creative thinking to make it all work, but definetly worth the effort. It not as easy as ordering the kit and putting it on.

Was it a Colibri Kit? Was it one of these?

I hear you don't want a kit that has cables.

 

[BlazinCopper]

It is one similair to that. It works great, the new window felt slowed it down alittle but still works very well. That is the only kit you can use if you want the window to go all the way down. The kits with the motors and slide trac will not let the window go all the way down because the motor is mounted at the bottom of the door. I would definetely recommend the product

 

[trlblazr]

What is the brand name? Can you post a link so I can check them out?

 

[BlazinCopper]

Sure, I'll be back at the shop tomorrow to get the info
