Thanks man, not really much body work, just had to replace most of the front clip, and passenger door. You did a lot with yours, looks good.

Thanks. I still really want a lund sun visor and the steps like the ones you have. Do you know who makes them? I've had my eyes open for a junk yard pair.. but these fords have trouble making it to the yard sometimes.. I haven't seen a new one come in in at least 3 months.

On Friday I started the 7.3L IDI that I inserted into my SAE Bronco for the first time. By Sunday it was moving around the property under it's own power. However, the only pic I took was when we were mocking up the FER for fitment so I can make brackets to bolt it to the frame:

So you won't have to take my word for it that there's in IDI under the hood, here's a pic of the engine after I set it in place a few weeks ago:

Huh...I guess I thought it looked kind of funny, but makes sense. At least one part in my truck is the same age as the keister sitting on it.
