What have you done to your Bronco today?

[av bronco]

Adjusted the valves, this aint no easy task. passenger side isint no prob. but we get to the drivers side, first remove shifting linkage, throttle linkage, brake booster bracket, then fish the V/C out from everything else. then TRY to get it all back where it was without screwing up the gasket. PITA

Lets hope you dont have to rip into it!!!

It seems pretty tight. It starts a little hard but it has the 8 year old battery from the Camaro. I'm driving it to Shafter today. It should loosten up a bit. Washed the car yesterday. It was a mess. Hasn't been out of the garage since before Christmas.

Painted my valve covers and oil pan. Dang paint has a matte finish and I didn't want a matte finish. Picked up parts at NAPA.

Started blasting my intake when wife said it was time to start the grill fer a drunk chicken. Oh well a man's gotta eat.

cut the front of the rear fenders out about 2inches to clear the tires when they are pushed up in the fender.. then went to the mall with my daughter and a guy walked up with his cell phone and started taking some pictures.. made us both smile..

Thought about it, taking a weekend off to give paint and seam sealer time to cure before I install flares and get ready for FINAL paint. Still looking for some tires on the cheap, 34's to 36's for a 15" rim, If you know of any with a little life left in them let me know, Just have to last about 4 months.

Put the new flywheel on and started to put the pressure plate and clutch on when I find the bolts that fit the flywheel are larger than the holes in the pressure plate. I don't trust anything that the PO did so I will probably replace the clutch with a new kit. Then when I picked up the trans by both the input and output shafts the output shaft moved, so I took off the inspection cover and played with it until a roller bearing fell out. I guess now I will have to take the trans (3 speed) apart and make a repair. Dang it!

Sounds like the Bronco is a little jelous of "The Other Woman"!

do you plan on mounting gauges on the flip down part? is it just for easy access? looks good , just curious.

At the moment, I'm planning on the speedo and tach to be on the main part of the dash. Speedo to the left of the column and that part won't fold down since it'll have the rollbar there and be so short. The tach will be on the right side of the column. That section will fold from the right edge of the column to the glove box. I'll have four other gauges but at the moment, I'm planning on them being mounted under the dash in a seperate center console.

Reason for the fold is mainly for access to wiring. I'm not able to lay in the floor and contort to see under the dash let alone work under there so I did it more for necessity than anything but I have to admit, I also thought it'd be kinda cool

Almost done welding up the new front bumper. Also tuned the carb after rebuilding it.

 

[fmcpeters]

built a twin stick shifter, next weekend will pull the transfer case to make the mods inside.
