OK it's official. I have purchased every steel body panel needed to build a basic bronco body. I will be the first to admit that I should of bought a new body, but the wait time sucked. If not buying the body ,I should of bought a complete body kit. But no, I mount the old body up on the frame and dill out all the welds to take it apart one piece at a time. To only throw away every piece I took off. So now I am back to the bare frame. I will have some "what would you do" fab questions very soon. Things like, without a spot welder, would you drill and plug weld the pieces together? Can I just weld on the seams instead of plug welding? Should I use panel adhesive instead of welding? Should I build a fixture / jig table? Should I try out for America's got talent? Owatajekiam. Damit Duke!! Duke is the dog next door. The owner is constantly cussing. every day I think he steps in Dukes shit. He is always yelling at the dog, Dammit Duke!!! My wife and I sit in the shop and say " Good Dog"

I know Bill, I really need to stop picking on you. I mean you didn't make the rust.

Bax, flex glue and flex tape are your best option for panel assembly. You know Phil Swift won’t steer you wrong.

Thank you. And there will be some h8ers that claim I don't really understand what "mint" means. Ignore them.
