Do not worry, I plan on rescuing a body from the junkyard, I know of a yard with 7 or 8 of them so we will see what I can get. I just need nice rear quarters and no rust.

Even if I tear down another whole bronco, nearly the entire thing will get used on one project or another. Even the frame.

Plasma cut the front body bolts off as they were seized around the mounting sleeves.

I think I'd like to have the kind of neighbors you seem to have...

Oh, and trucks with no rust would be nice too.


BTW, have you ever considered doing an f600/700/800 pickup? If you do a search on Google for F600 pickup it brings up some pretty funky looking rigs...including a brown six-door F600 and a really sharp later model black F800 pickup truck with aluminum rims and a shell. Proportions look like one of those radio control International CXTs. (or a real one, for that matter.)

Your truck is in the third row of the results.

If what you are building is a Centurion, what would these be? Gladiators?

How do your neighbors feel about this? I live in a way more tucked-away alley and I get irritated neighbors with the air compressor and banging going on the garage....

I use fear and intimidation. My boys drive their trucks by the neighbors really slow with the elbows hanging out the window, and their long hair blowing in the wind. I also know the HOA inspector, he stops by and chats with me about the trucks sometimes.
