Got motor dropped onto the frame, pre-installed exp serp setup to be sure of where all the bolts went and everything cleared....looks good. Rolled the uncut outside to get access so I gave it its first bath in 3 years! Looks fabulous from 15 feet!

I need to get the stock wheels painted and the hubcaps shined up and some cheap tires mounted, those chrome mods look hideous.

Got started on moving the front coil buckets. Took some measurements for rear links. Found a 2 foot long place in the frame on the passenger side where it wasn't welded from the factory and now has a small gap. I never noticed it before. Might have happened last time I flopped. Guess I'll fix that tommorow. %)

Looks good!!!!!! Is there enough room to mount some speakers in there? Also it looks like it wraps all the way around the top of the motor so wind wont catch it, is that correct?

Yes it does it wraps completely around the the motor wit plenty of room to add speakers or even windshield visors. It basically sits flush with the top of the windshield riser but you could make it sit below the top of the riser. The ends are caps. I pre drilled everything and drilled holes for my turnbuckles to go through and attach to the riser since I always run topless.

That cover looks great! You ought to make some more and sell them. I would buy one in a heart beat.

This is not one of my products this is from Scott at American Bronco, he makes some good product, I also have his wind dam installed in my engine compartment. I'm sure he'll make one for you.

I Drove mine to fire Dept Training last night, and drove it to work and back today (in 40 degree weather with no top or doors)!!! Those of you that have followed my epic...this is about 8 years in the making.

Unfortunately tonight I had to pull the radiator and intake off it to fix some fluid loss issues. Should be back together tomorrow, and hopefully the fluid issues with be gone then I can start driving it more. It was SOO GREAT to be able to drive it again, and all the upgrades sure are nice!

Just finished taking off the old windshid, I saved the hinge on the cowl, (gods must have been smiling on me :) ) Now I am fitting the new / used one. Also, either today or tomorrow, tune up time, installing a new Mallorry HEI distributer!

Bronco related since it's for the Bronco.... Friday wire wheeled then POR'd the bottom of my trailer. Was kind of slow at work only got to turn 8hrs and was done by 9 so I at least got something done!

Now need to re-wire it along with new lights since it'll be easy to reach, weld on new tongue jack, and go over the brakes and bearings.

it was yesterday and I really didn't do much but watch...

Edelbrock intake manifold, Holley TA 470 carb, BCB throttle cable, Bronco script valve covers, cap & rotor, plugs, plug wires, oil pressure switch, thermostat, heater control valve, heater hoses, painted rear bumper... I think that was it. ;D

Thanks to 73stallion...
