This may be difficult for some to stomach...

 

[fatboy]

[Master Chief]

Nice Tim. You gonna be ready for May It Forward next month?

 

[smokinjoe]

OMG! I'm all clammy, light headed, don't feel so well

Looks like a good start, hope it turns out how ya' want it

 

[Crawdad]

Turbo,
Whatcha gonna do wth those cutouts? I'm very interested in them if you are wanting to part with them. Matt

I hope that the blurry thing in the 2nd pic isn't a finger that was removed in the process

Good work.

 

[hyghlndr]

You only lost about 5k in value

I'm sure the guy that cut down the last tree on Easter Island had no idea what a horrible thing he was doing either.

 

[Apogee]

Looks good!

 

[jeff_gates]

looks good,

I would have put the flare on the Bronco, drawn the line, then cut on the line.

Ha! ...wait...I don't get it?

You know, Easter Island.....its inhabitants slowly cut down all the trees until the island was left bare and then erosion took away the rich soil, until the island was this barren waste land that couldn't support its inhabitants. I read some article years ago about the island and in the article the writer wondered if the person cutting down the last tree understood the significance of his act. Probably not since he wasn't around when the island was plush with trees.

I was trying for some analogy about the person cutting the last uncut Bronco, but I guess it was a stretch.

Funny, I was thinking the same thing! No way you were going to hurt that rig.........

If our resident sawzall tech was there Saturday, it would have happened!

Go for it, Tim! (keep the fingers, though) %)

Oh, BTW, good meeting you Sat. Hope to see ya at May It Forward, with or without the EB!

I follow, and concur. The more I see people cut theirs, the more I wish I had bought one that was uncut so I could enjoy what is becoming more rare. each their own.

cha ching mine just went up in price.

 

[KCBronco]

There is counseling..... for things that tragic!

Well, I've spent about 60 hours welding in the cutouts on my '68. Good that I had them from the original owner, good that I learned a lot about welding sheet metal and the bodywork to make them nice. Still working on one side to get it right. May have been $ ahead to replace that quarter. But....it's all original now! But seriously, cuts can be replaced! Have fun with your Bronco. It's a hobby after all.

It is what it is. Some of us just need a bigger opening. Brings back memories of chopping the 66.
