Looks like a good platform to build on. The bonus is it's already taken apart to save you time. Mark. |

Mike, Could you please post a list of items needed for this build. I can only assume that considering all of the invaluable help ViperWolf has given so freely over the years, that people would be jumping at the chance to donate to this build. Bronco Karma time ! |

$175 @ harbor freight, I am sure people would be more than happy to pitch in to borrow (or buy outright) after your done with it and help with the cost. I know i would. I would love to help out as well, out of town at the moment - working on it next weekend? |

Damn Mike! You work fast. When I did that work on mine it took me two weeks ! What about using panel adhesive instead of spot welding? I used it when I replaced my driver side quarters and rocker. Its supposed to be stronger than spot welding and it does a good job keeping the moisture out from between the two pieces of metal. The only down side is the special dual tube calking gun used to apply it. I was able to borrow one from the PPG shop when I bought the adhesive. |

I am sorry, but I am just amazed at how quickly you are getting that body work done -- just awesome! I have had to do the front passenger floor -- probably the easiest piece of bodywork that I have to do -- and I have procrastinated far longer than it took you to get this work done. Very, very impressed. |

It's funny that the work I've been trying to research and figure out for the last 2 years you just went ahead and knocked out in a couple weeks. Really impressive! |
