A few needs and wants

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Fri Aug 01, 2014 4:38 pm

Looking for tailgate hardware. Bottom pivots, latches, handle, rods. Etc. condition does not matter.

Windshield frame. Ugly is good. Rust is not a problem.

Old nasty body panels. Planning some rust repair in the future? Good. I want the junk you cut out. Chunks of door posts and striker latches are good. So are rocker panels. Floor boards and support channels.

Basically I'm looking to build the Project X tub out into the ugliest Frankenstein looking Bronco possible.

Again, not looking for anything worth more than scrap value. Only dumpster bound parts.

Also looking for a passenger side kick panel. I don't want to keep it, only borrow it to use as a template. I have a sheet of steel at the house and access to a plasma table so I'm looking to make a new kick panel rather than buying one. Prefer new for this.

I'll have to see if I can make it to Conifer some time soon.

There are some bends in the kick panel to correct line up the door post with the other body lines. Probably not hard to reproduce them.

I don't think they will be hard to reproduce. I've been doing quite a bit of reading on body panel fabrication via the HAMB and the interwebs.

Cool. Give me a heads up a few hours in advance and I can meet ya up there. I can haul my sheet metal up and draw my template same day so I don't need to hang on to it.

I know the in all the stuff I gave Mike with the 74 there was tailgate hardware that came off Chad's bronco.

Post by **D&D72** » Sat Aug 02, 2014 6:54 am

I have the pivots, spare carrier latch and the backing plate for the latch. maybe a few other things.

You're hosting it right?! Lol

The difference between me and a hoarder is I am actually going to start assembling a Bronco out of this stuff soon.

Wait. Hoarders say that too, don't they.

Want?

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Sat Aug 02, 2014 4:10 pm

Surprisingly, I am good on those two pieces so I'll pass.

Thank you though!

I have a driver's door, spare tire carrier with slight bend, tire carrier brackets and latch.

All free if you're interested. I can get pictures.

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 11:40 am

I could use the brackets and latch. Let me check my beater doors for condition.

Post by **TOOLMAN** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 1:58 pm

I may have a windshield frame.

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Thu Aug 07, 2014 5:23 pm

Is it ugly? Rusty? Crooked?

Post by **TOOLMAN** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 7:47 am

Rusty, yes. Especially the bottom. Crooked? I don't think so. I could throw it up and down the alley a few times if that helps.

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Fri Aug 08, 2014 1:50 pm

I don't want you to put yourself out too much so I'll settle for rusty.

Barring any unforeseen events, I will be in Denver on the 19th and 20th.

My driver's door is not in too bad of shape, aside from the window frame being gone. And I wasn't planning to run windows anyhow. So, I'll pass so that it might go to a more needy home. Thank ya though!

Any chance you'll be around the 19-20th time frame? I'm in Denver from 8-5:30 both days. I'd rather be picking up parts than sitting on 25 moving 3mph at that hour anyhow.

Post by **TOOLMAN** » Mon Aug 11, 2014 6:32 am

I'll be around on the 19th or 20th, after work, of course. Usually home by 4:30.

Post by **akaFrankCastle** » Fri Sep 12, 2014 9:59 pm

Update: I have a kick panel now. I'll also be headed north tomorrow and Sunday and can pick up stuff.

Post by **Digger** » Fri Sep 12, 2014 10:29 pm

Sorry I missed your last message. I'll be around all day Saturday (the 13th) if you want to stop by.

Sounds good. PM me your address and phone number if you could. I'll give you a ring when i am free and can make it over. I'll be in class until about 4:30pm.

Need to add some parts on to this. I have the large slotted bracket and of the two identical brackets. Need everything else.

Post by **Kinder** » Sat Sep 13, 2014 9:52 am

I might have those AND can find them.
