Don't you need to start with the door and work forward?

Couldn't find one anywhere in the US, but there were two at the local auto parts store??

Or see if you can find one of the newer aftermarket aluminum heads that are/were being cast by someone several years ago. Then put it on a 200 or 250. Most people can't tell a 144/170/200/250 by a quick look under the hood.

250/300 are completely different engines. 240/300 is the same design, different cubic inches. Just to not confuse anyone.

Tell us where you are and there may be someone nearby that would be willing to help take a look.

No, any seats I've ever installed fit perfectly and looked factory. And if you believe that..... The last ones I did were Recaros in a Mercedes 450SL so I don't even know why I replied to this thread.

Wouldn't be too hard to move the vin from the old frame to the new frame. Not that I would do something like that, of course.

You have to use whatever topcoat the base or primer says it can use. If you use Duplicolor, you have to use something to take it off so you can put a better quality product on it.

I have a dolly that a body will sit on if you're interested. PM me if you are interested. Much heavier duty than the one pictured on their site.

Scoop - hope it wasn't me. I tend to irritate people everywhere I go..... SHX669 - I thought it was cool because no one ever asked "what color should I paint my Bronco?"

No offense. I didn't mean anything by it. Just one of those afternoons and you were the first reply. Your take is as valid as mine...

Exactly as 71' says. You can even save a few pennies, well, a few thousand, and have an electrician come wire you an outlet in the garage. With pictures, we can even second guess your welds remotely if you want. The biggest thing is practice, a lot. And learn to grind, a lot. You'll get there.

Ruined. Ruined he says. Or she. Scoop is pretty androgynous. I liked it. Flavor of the Great Northwest.

I was planning on a ZF for my 250/EFI build, but due to some nerve problems in my left leg, I don't think I'll be using a clutch pedal any time soon. I am thinking of going with the 6R80 in place of the ZF but am wondering about adapters. I know I can adapt the D20 with a kit from one of the...

Go ahead and scuff and prime over the weld through. I'm not sure about using an etch primer, I'd prefer epoxy. If it's just a seam, you'll be fine, if it's an overlap, use seam sealer before or after epoxy depending what the seam sealer calls for.

"wasn't engineered for amplified input forces" - Force isn't really amplified. It's just taken away from the driver. Force on the box is the same unless you're steering much faster.....

DBI is PPG's interior formula. Less gloss than exterior in the same color.

That's what seam sealer is for. You don't need to get between metal sheets to stop rust, you just need to stop moisture and oxygen from getting there, so a surface covering works fine as long as it's impervious. Epoxy will seal out O2 and moisture if you get a good coat. My frame is epoxy...

I've needed to plow the garage out a few times, but never needed chains to get in and out. Snow is a different matter.......

Apparently no small men own Broncos.
