Ford Bronco from Canada

[chinik]

Hi all. I've been looking around for a while now
and finaly got myself cr01. So 10 hours later
I ended up with this.



Then I didn't like the idea of wheel base being too long so I cut the body
but changed my mind and made a flat bed for it.









Then I looked at some skid plates (to cover my axles ) for sale - they
all too small. So I got some allum. and just made one. Slides over rocks and other staff great.






Then my son was about to put some logs on Ford but everything was falling so I modified a bit.






















For the wheels - I sanded allum finish away and painted it black.
So I got black on black - no damage visible.
I like doing stuff myself kind od inventing something not just wait
for my mailman bring it to me...

Looks pretty cool. Nice job on the bed.

You did good work on that body! Love how it looks, I saw it over on tamiyacrawlers

[Jeephead]

You did a fine job on that rig! Very nice!

[unimogger]

very nice work making things work! The rear bed looks great. You should try to make it into a dump body.

[timmy85]

very nice work on the bed.

[ShredSled]

Excellent work. Love seeing originality. Inspiring.

Now if only I could afford a CR-01 in the first place....

[grimgard]

For the front plate there is a template (in mm) but I have made front and back
parts longer so it would go ok over rocks and as I have found out lately works just fine
on snow too.



And finaly I had time to make rear skid plate. It has a bit different design.









And here you can see how it looks from the bottom.
Central skid plate on production stage.






And last update is up roof intake pipe. I am just not sure if i am
going to keep that cup. And may be I will change color of those screws.




comments are welcome. that is why we're all here

The bed looks good. I'm digging the mud flaps.

[FLB]

Nice work-! I like the fact that it's totally different. Bed is awesome!

[Captaincrash]

What did you use to make the snorkel? How did you bend it?

[chinik]

Hi.
So for that snorkel I used white styrene
pipe about 1/4 inch. Used shrink tube to give it
some nice look than heated it up with heat gun
to give it the shape i wanted. Just dont heat it too much
otherwise it might melt down.
For the mud flaps - I realy like them myself too.

[lewy]

That looks really cool.

I like scoop on the bonnet.

Did you make it?

[chinik]

I got something to show you.
Started to make wide fenders.
Lets see how I will like it.








As you can see it is not very Bronco style but I think they
gonna look good because they will be in one line with rear fenders.
At the same time front tires wont throw dirt in drivers face on a muddy
road in a rainy day.

[cydog510]

A+! wow, that is an incredible custom body! also love tha fact that the mud flaps look to be leather.

[chinik]

Wanted to show you some upgrades.
Made roof rack and front fenders-side steps.

[Mindwarp]

That is an incredible build! Very nice!
