1.5 Early Bronco

[AkFordfan]

Got my wheels in, now to decide which bolts for the rings
left side is rc4wd, and the right is the bolts that came with the wheels(not sure where I can get more)

Left it is

[Bronco Bobby]

Yep' left looks more scale. Right looks more sleek, but not a scale

[AkFordfan]

Ya, I think it will look better. On another note I took the bronco out tonight for a quick run ended up ripping the spare tire off the bumper and breaking one of the front shackle hangers off Hopefully the pitbulls will make this thing perform better on wet rocks, spun the boggers until the rears left rubber on the rocks and they still wouldnt grab

I got a couple packages of screw in the mail yesterday from RPP and Locked up After cutting down 18 screws for one wheel I need to find a better method or some better cutters

[AkFordfan]

Got one tube door mounted up



Oh yeah and it works

Awsome thread! Ur bronco is lookin like your 1:1. The ute rims are sick my friend has em on his dodge charger. The pitbull's should take care of your traction problem. My friend just tried them out heres the link

Thanks, made a little progress the last few days. Sand blasted the cage and got it painted up, also painted the rusty frame( I hope the rust will slowly show through the paint) Interior is getting closer to finished and both tube doors are mounted. I will get some pics up later Still patiently waiting for my pitbulls to show up. Hope to have this thing just about wrapped up by Fathers day weekend for the big 4x4 GTG up here.

Primed and ready for paint, well after a little wet sanding anyway

I love the complete body tub, just like a 1:1, and the tube doors look great. The wheels look great, the rear bumper is a really nice design.

Ah heck what's not to love!

At first glance, that last pic looked to me like a 1:1 tub being worked on in a shop. Fantastic work on the body especially the doors.

[AkFordfan]

Thanks guys, got two coats of paint on it I will let it dry over night and do some wet sanding tomorrow

[AkFordfan]

I think this one might almost qualify for the realistic thread
