Water jet.

Lights are wired and working in the back including back up and turn signals. Brake lights too.

Wired up and fired up, got one leak on a hydro boost line fitting. Trans cooler will be here next week and then wheels probably the next week. Upholstery should be done about that same time.

So we are entering month six since we started body work 1 Oct 24. We spent 200 plus hours on bodywork and paint. We are now averaging around 20 or less hours a week since paint was done. We stay single focused and knock one thing out at a time before moving on. Put in about three hours today

Some more black on green crime, the letters kind of match my hubcaps.

 

[fordguy]

Front fender flares, twin sticks and latch hardware for hood

 

[fordguy]

Roll cage installed and mat cut so it fits over the cage mounts. Allows the mat to com out of needed

 

[fordguy]

Made some quarter panels, they are 3/8ths so they can be used for upholstery or for templates for use with a flush bit. Got 3 of my 4 wheels in. Number 4 is a long story but should be ready late next week. No word from the upholster.

This is the latest pic. We narrowed the front bumper 7 inches and back bumper 2, going to paint them Monday.I am facing multiple hurdles on parts due to slow movement at glass, powdercoat and upholstery. I have decided to not post anymore on this thread until I drive the bronco out of the shop on its own power. thanks For all the support along this journey, hope to end this thread soon.
