From Nick at Northeast Classic ford parts. Luckily he was restoring a 66 for a guy who had it and did not want it on the restore so I scored it.

Got the doors hung! Man I wish my painter would hurry up and call!!

Man this thing is looking great! I’m in Monroeville Ala. I’m doing a 66 also right now but my progress is way slower than yours. I’ve got a couple of questions if you don’t mind answering. What front floor pans did you use? What primer did you use after you blasted the underside?

Bdhand · Nov 24, 2019

Thanks. I have been working for over three years on it! I ordered my floor pans from Bronco Hut. They were the two piece style. And I used epoxy primer all over the body. I can get the specifics on the primer if I need to after church.

Just sitting here patiently waiting on the painter to call!!!

Got bored and taped the fender flares up on the bronco just to see how the will look. Gave up on the original painter and talked to another one that is a little bit closer. he is supposed to get it next month. Again fingers crossed. Isn’t it sad that I have cash in the bank just wanting to give it to someone to paint my bronco and no one seems to want it LOL!!!!

Got the top on today. Still have a few adjustment to make but the best thing is it goes to the paint shop next week. Man I am super pumped!!!!! Can’t wait to get this thing done. Been a long 5.5 years.

Bdhand · Jul 31, 2020

So this happened today. Took her to the paint shop for body work and paint. Can’t wait to get this thing back and get it back together.

Bdhand · Aug 12, 2020

I can’t believe it but they have actually started working on my bronco. Got all the gaps lined up and started stripping the tailgate. There are several projects ahead of me that is why I am surprised they started on mine. Hope they keep it up.

Bdhand · Aug 13, 2020

More progress today. Looks like they put some kind of sound deadening inside the doors while the old skins are off and before they put the new skin on. Every time I see an update I get even more excited.

sprdv1 · Aug 14, 2020

Too cool, making some great progress..

Bdhand · Aug 28, 2020

More progress this week. They got the fenders cut and prepped for the fender flares. Getting closer to paint.

Bdhand · Sep 3, 2020

They are making great progress. Also blowing through my money like crazy!!!! But I am pumped.
