the pre-bent cage went well until the a pillar bars were tacked in, the dash pad would not work and the cage could not be moved back because the window cranks would not be operable. then someone cut all the hood latch brackets off the grill anther set back. So it got put on the back burner and worked on a few other projects. So today I met with a guy to bend me up some new bars and we will be back on this project in no time.

Glad it is now going so quickly. Guess you'll drive it to the GTG?

If only it would go together that fast, it might get done a little faster if other projects did not come floating into the shop

'67 Bronco

Went to the Owasso FFA car show today. If I'd have known about it, the Thunderbird would have been there. Any way, I did take a picture of this Bronco there and thought of JW.

JW was at my place for the get-together. And, why weren't you?

The classic auto lot would have been better wording. The one that has all the classic cars

Got it. The one on the west side of downtown on the north side of the street. I'll take a look. So, it isn't done?
