Well this Bronco isn't even close to RB's & Dezrider Bronco's but should be fun to drive.
I was about to purchase a Bronco in either stock form or a partially built Bronco to do a FULL build BUT after talking to a few shops and getting into a Q for a build was more than 6mos out and then of coarse the build time that will extend way past the scheduled estimate. :rolleyes:

So after some horse trading I ended up a Bronco that doesn't need anything the previous owner(s) pretty much did everything I would have done if I were to build one from scratch.

Immediate plans are to paint match rear fenders, two tone paint (Gray) midsection down the side like the factory looked, Powder Coat front and rear bumpers gunmetal gray. Replace the carpet with a rubber floor.

Pipe dream, fabricate a new dash, console, gauges re-wire and maybe some HP.

Nice ride. i want to do the grey stripe on mine and color match the fiberglass top.

The Oh Cho bronco he has now looks great with the stripe.

In Andrews shop or it's his ?
I'd like to see what it would look like with the top done, I was told that the off white on this Bronco is a factory color but don't remember seeing one like this though I think a Metallic Gray should look fine with this shade of white. A burnt Orange would also go with this white as well imo.

Wow, nice find man! I wish mine was this built out but im stoked to have what I found a few months back. I am contemplating having Oh Cho do my new beams. Either him or Desolate is going to do them. I would like to afford going wider too. Thats a badass Bronco man.
