I'm not gonna lie, seeing this post of him running your rig and you getting to ride in his gave me goosebumps. Must be prety cool to share the same intrest of a rig.

That was amazing. He actually let me drive the 1:1 up the street and back. Mike is quite a guy. It's something that I'll truly never forget.

So that being said, I'm thinking about painting the Bronco a different color. What do you guys think?

I'm thinking about the same orange as my 1.9 Grand Cherokee.

If you want to match the 1:1 you based it off, keep it the way it is. However, if you want to make this rig your own, paint it orange. Great color choice to paint

man, I got ta tell you. The color and design of that truck should stay the way it is. Your best is always been in the building of a new project. honor this truck by keeping it the way you did it, color and all and let the gates of hell open up for something new to shine through.

Last time I talked to Mike, he was seriously considering replacing the beat up panels and painting it a different color. I like the red, but it needs a paint job pretty bad, and obviously the hood needs paint. I can always repaint it red later on. I think it would look bad ass orange with a black stripe down the hood.

So you sold the flatbed, Eh? I had a feeling that was going to happen. Glad it went to a good guy (Dezfan).

You could paint the thing HOT PINK and it would still be BAD ARSE! Yea I could see it orange with a black stipe down the hood.

Well, the Bronco is torn down, My buddy Dennis has sandblasted it, and most of the panels are painted. I'm considering painting the chassis and tube work champagne instead of silver just to be a little different.

Here are a few pics.....any thoughts about the color?

Hey, wait, I know who you are.

This is yours right?







Mike let me drive the red one, if you let me drive the blue one, then we'll talk . I assume you looked at the whole build? What do you think?

Great looking orange Tim!

This rig keeps evolving and I love it; I need to do the same to mine. Now that I am working again I hope to start keeping up with you.
