My Bronco project.....

Hey guys, i hope you enjoy these pics. Work in progress. Picked up this 94 EB for $950 with corroded body but great motor and tranny:




Bodyshop:



After flat black paint and flat clear coat:



Tires going on it:



Rims:



Finished:





I still need to do the interior all black and lift it maybe 2". Tinted wiindows and spare tire cover are next.

Let me know of any more good ideas for it if you have any.

If you're going to lift it, use a good kit, and go 4", it will look great with the tire size you have and the price will be pretty much the same as a 2" kit. The truck looks great, but i would remove the black lenses from the headlights... no need to dim the lights with those, maybe use some white headlights and turning lights instead?.

Looks great. If im able to do a restoration like I want to I would be doing something very similar. Are you going to do anything with the tail gate?

hurry up with the tinted windows, it's going to look evil when done.. and yeah, don't waste money on a cheap lift, you'll regret it. I agree about the 4'', 33s + a 4'' is just about the perfect look.

I actually prefer the look without the spare carrier, I think Broncos look more 'slick' (if possible, big fricken boxes) without them. I took mine off, wasn't sure at first but I don't think it will ever go back on. You should try driving around for a few days with yours off, you might be surprised at how quick it grows on you.

Dumb question cause I'm not a painter, Did you paint the bumpers somehow, or bought black ones? Can chrome be painted over?

Do those tires rub the front bumper? That profile looks nice in the wheelwell.
