Travis looks like you are swapping the grill shell on the bronc already? Are you taking it to the mudfest this month? Need a front bumper in a little better condition?

the passenger quarter on the bronco is new. of course the driver has rust, tail gate, and floor pans. did a little work last weekend
engine/trans are ready to be pulled. its just resting in there.
put the body mount covers on the bronco from the parts truck. there wasnt any on it for some reason.
plans have changed for the f250 build. im going to try and salvage the cab. so ill be just swapping the front clip/bed from the parts truck. i should be picking up some parts from rich this weekend

I'm sure my list speaks louder than my pocketbook lol I really need a seat for the f250. I really like the oem bench seat but finding one a mouse hasn't used at some point is finding to be a hassle lol ill be selling the cab on the parts truck minus doors (ill put the doors off betsy on it) if anyone is interesed.
