Awesome, I need a nice flat garage I can fit a vehicle in!

Any plans for the bumper? Or will it be more ornamental?

whatever happens, happens on the bumpers, thinking about a 6" tube bumper but set back to resemble a front roll pan.

most definitely a cowl hood, but the hood closes with the housing and IP.

I have big plans for that engine compartment..:D

This is quickly becoming my favorite build thread, I cannot stop looking at the picture in #139. That is a disgustingly awesome ride!

I want it 2" lower. im at 10" from the pavement, I want 8!
ive got fish plates and a monster C notch at my buddys house getting CNC plasma'd
im building it to lay frame, after I get bored of it and bag it.
the easier it is for mama to get in an out of, the better.

I have a buddy that has a CNC plasma.

anyone local that dirt pulls may have seen this in action.

anyway, hes cutting me some c-notches and fish plates.
heres a preview, and a shot of his rig.

well, the bronco now has 6 good body mounts.
the front clip still has no support, gotta come up with a way to make it happen since my frame rails are above the radiator support.
ive been stayin off my "meds" and now I feel like I have came down with "writers block"
thinking tomorrow morning... a nice fat one over coffee will do the trick.
c-notches will be ready for pick up tomorrow.
excited to finish up the rear suspension, but cant do that until my notches are in.

I HAVE to get this thing out of the shop asap and get to work on that 52.

That's the coolest thing anybody has ever done with a four door Fairlane :thumbsup:

Man this build is great. I don’t know how I missed it until today!

Youve got me inspired to do a megacrew conversion, but I’ll need to get an extended cab section to weld on my cc.

Cant wait to see how the finished product turns out.
