Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Looks like you just installed a new motor that runs on food instead of gas.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
This weekend was able to get Power Steering installed, the new front seats installed, front roll cage was welded to the back, paint is continuing to be applied, new windshield, and it is generally getting much closer to reassambly next Saturday.
Big thanks to Hockeydad for the new windshield and for Plumbdoctor for housing the Bronco in his driveway (and painting and helping with the power steering.) I look forward to the official unveiling next weekend. Been long overdue!

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Nothing too exciting. Finally got tired of looking at the bolts in the windshield hold down holes so I replaced them with new chrome early style wind shield knobs.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Took the top off today, w/ Dirtheadz help Didn't think to take the picture till I ran an errand at Walgreens, looking forward to not roasting all summer long, and performing much needed repairs on the hard top

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Yeah, that is hard and something we'll face pretty soon as well. Our Chessie has having severe hip problems. Mind is willing, body it not. Harder yet is we knew when we left him with my folks last summer, it could be the last time we see him in person.

My last picture of my rig was in a storage container. Today, I was surprised with a picture that has double the love.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Oh i get to add to this. I drove my 79 for the first time since we ran gordons gulch last year on st patty's day. I used it to go to a buddies house and pull 8 juniper bushes in his yard.

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
Bought a 120k btu 95% efficient down draft furnace for the garage. 10 years old, but never installed. It'll be a little more work than a hanging furnace, but the price makes it worth it. Add 'furnace install' to my 'to do list.'

Re: What have you done to your Bronco today? (v.2)
After filling my gut with pancakes and sausage, and then after helping Plumbdoctor flip Mrs. Plumbdoctor's tub, and then after making my girlfriend sit around in front of previously mentioned's house while we looked at some wiring issues on my Bronco-- I was able to fix the latch on the liftgate so each bump doesn't hit "concert-like" decibles of rattle. AND then after that, I was able to do a little shifter project I have been wanting to do to add a little personal flavor to the ride...
This cost me $2.20 to do. Got the ball for free and the fitting inside it was all it cost.
