Cheap things to do??

Hey I was wondering if there is anything cheap I could do to my Bronco to kill time during the day??? Kinda a weird question but I thought I would give it a try...I do have new tires for it but I dont have the cash right now to get them mounted on the rims on my truck now and get the tires on my rims on my brothers rims...

Wash it. And then vacuum the carpet. Then get it muddy and repeat.

Start learning to fab stuff and start scrounging. I have made tons of stuff for basically free. I scrounge steel and then have to buy the welding rod. Cheap entertainment

Well i was thinking about building a custom center console for my bronco my tech teacher at school said I can use his shop as long as I supply my own material...I dont know yet if im going to do that because I might be getting a couple monitor screens to hook up to a ps2 and that would be a good spot to mount one in the center counsle for the back seat....yah you can tell im still a kid lol..any ideas of what I can make for my truck???

That is up to you. Start by looking at everybodies galleries. Maybe you will see something you like, and may want to copy.

Howabout a flower holder cup for your dash like the beetles have? That would be swell.

I've always thought it would be cool to graft a PEZ dispenser into my dash. I have a complete Star Wars set. I could have one for each day of the week . . . villian PEZ for the weekends and good PEZ for the week. Maybe you could do something like this!

Hey, you wanted ideas. If you wanted evil ideas you have to be more specific. I would start by NOT installing a PS2.

Evil? Sure. Weld shackles to your hood then strap a sacraficial virgin to it. Then drive around town. I'm sure everbody will be like, "Dang, that bronco is EVIL".
