Default F-100's Bronco Proj.

Here is yet another one of my projects that I am working on the third on I have started (have a fourth but haven't started it yet). It's a 1981 Ford Bronco, I have seen a few Bronco's made and they turned out rather nicely just hopin' mine does to. Well all I really have done are the mounts made, nothing is put together all just a mock up so far. Hopin' to work on this a little this weekend but got my two other projects goin' might not. I have a few ideas goin' for this project but still pondering them a little. Like the bumpers would like to make it so I can switch them out for the other set and also the topper for the back would like to make that removeable also. Paint got an idea but not a definate yet because don't know if i'll get the colors I want so may change, but thinking brown and white or light/sky blue and white. SORRY but I have already decided that I will not be selling this truck this the first Ford project, and I am a Ford fanatic so I will be keeping this one.

The body is going to be sitting pretty much at the same height as it is in the pictures, the front actually fell down a little in the pics but not much. In the pic of the front of the bronco the hummer clip will actually be sitting on top of the body just bellow the clip. I wanted to go with a stock looking Bronco because I always see custom trucks that are lifted way up.

There maybe another thread of someone elses Bronco that they made, I don't know for sure. Yes the Ferrari and also the Monte Carlo are both projects of mine for Xmods.

Thanks for comments!!

OK well I got an update for you this is what I got done in the last couple of days. I also got the topper just about finished to where I can take it off or put it on all I have to do is drill a hole for the screw. What tiks me off is in the one pic of the topper you see how it doesn't sit on it straight hope the plastic windows will straighten that out. The paint went on really nice Going to do some touchups with some white paint yet. I am going to put a clear coat on it maybe tomarrow.

Does this look a little better

Well here is the latest on the Bronco pretty much done, I'm just going to do a few little tiny detailing touchups yet and I think that will be it. Will take some better pics outside tomarrow if weather holds out. Please leave any comments.

Lol, you've been working on, and finished yours in a month.
Mine has been in the process for like a year now, and havn't gotten much done at all.
Goes to show you hows much of a slacker I am. (Or maybe I'm an overachiever and don't want to show you what I have )
