Okay guys, Steve was up in Ocala and took a couple photos of our new addition - 1969 Bronco. It will be a few months before we can begin doing anything with it but at least its we got it.

Check out my gallery - oh yeah, it does run.

Looks like you have your work cut out. Take lots of pics during the work. I like to see progress.

looks like a good score- hopefully it won't bankrupt you when you are rebuilding it!

This is like preaching to the choir, but 'document' that rebuild with pictures. I kick myself just about every day for not taking any pictures of the 3 basketcases I've brought back to life. Those old Broncos are cool. Good luck.

I'm definately into taking pictures throughout all stages of a project. The coming apart photos of the '41 project were/are a huge help in the putting back together process.

Sweet, looks like a fun project. I've always wanted to build one of those.

Also, I'm curious, how did you get stuck as mod of the "bodywork" and "Appearance & Dress-Up" forums? Isn't that kind of sexist?

What makes me qualify for the Paint & Body - Appearance & Dress-up Moderator???

Well, to tell you the truth, it's because it's what I do best. I love working with my hands and am very, very good at it – unbelievably good at it in fact. I can feel every bump and curve as I sand that thing and can feel the smoothness of it when it’s just right. Oh yeah, when I don't feel it's perfect, I ask questions and follow directions. What more can be expected of a Moderator????

The Bronco looks great Carlene! Can't wait to see how it progresses. I did get a kick out of some of the hurricane pictures.

Are you talking about bodywork or body-work?

Actually, I'm talking about both. hehe Check out my 1941 galleries and you'll see how well I do with bodywork. As for my accomplishments with body-work, this is a family site so you'll have to use your imagination.

Mako - unfortunately we're not neighbors yet. We're building up there while trying to sell our place down here. Our hopes are that Santa will be visiting us in Ocala this year, but right now it ain't lookin' good. I don't want to have to go through another tax season.......

taxes make me cringe. When I saw the post Ocala jumped off the page, and I did not read it thoroughly. I hope that you get your Christmas wish. Ocala is a nice place.
