UPDATE! I finished the mini consoles for the seat switches. They are the last 5 pics in the Seat Install album: https://www.ford-trucks.com/user_gal...&albumid=31067

And...it all works. Go figure.

Randy,

Once again I am completely awestruck, nice solution to your switch dilema. You, my friend, are an inspiration.

Thanks for taking such fine pics and doing such a nice job documenting your work.

Bobby

Wow! Randy, If you could mass produce those seats and hardware you would be a millionaire. Awesome job.

Dead album?

I know this is a pretty old thread, but is there anyway to see the gallery of pictures from the build?
Thanks,
Charlie

I managed to save Randy's pictures and write-up on his Bronco tank install in his truck. I used it to do the Bronco tank install in my 48 F-1. Sadly I did not save his seat install

Had the site given everyone notice that they intended to trash all our contents they could have been saved and re-entered in their new format ,same thing with the Photo bucket bandits...

i would love to see those if there’s any way to send them. I’ve been trying to find a good example of a rear fender filler set up. Sounds like Randy did some really good work!

Randy's photos and write-up show the tank installation in the frame and does not show the rear fender filler set up. I took his words and pictures and put them into a Word file which I can email to you. PM me your email address and I will forward them to you. He also shows how he modified the tank level assembly to fit the Bronco tank. That is no longer necessary as Bronco Graveyard now sells a replacement for the correct level assembly for the 25.5 gallon tank. I bought one for my Bronco tank install in my 48-52 F-1.
