Veterra Bronco Old Yeller

[SHOme]

A little progress tonight. Seats made from high density foam. Front are one piece and rear is connected with 12-2 electrical wire. I was trying to make it as true to the original 1:1 as I could. The rear shock tower screws that up. I don't know how I will cover these yet.

That mock motor is the same as mine, although detailed much nicer.
Ridemakerz| Hemi Engine

Killer deal for 6$
Slightly small for blazer body, but not too far off. Might be pretty good for bronco. Interior looks great!

The. Engine came from the ridemakerz store in Myrtle Beach. I took my son there 6-8 years ago to build one. Big tourist trap store but he had a blast at the time. I might try it in the Mangler Bronco whenever I get to that.

After seeing this I went over and ordered a dash and bench seat for my K10. Thanks for referencing their site. Lot's of good stuff over there.

I just can't have these rear shock towers. They just make my back seat look bad. I bit the bullet and ordered the GCM rear shock relocation kit and 2 gmade 75mm shocks. They should be in by the weekend. Of course I will have to redo the floor in the back.
Also my driver was unfortunately born with long legs. He told me he would like to undergo a surgical procedure to fix that. I told him I would oblige and would do my best to make him look normal.
I really want to move the motor forward but I think that will have to wait until next winter because I want to try and do it the old fashion way to save some $$.
I am still heating and manipulating the awful looking tunnel to cover the motor and trans in the stock location. I will never be happy with it, I just want to get to temporarily satisfied.

Does anyone else's family look at them like they are crazy when they are working/playing with these things? I think my daughters think I have lost my mind. I feel like a little kid at christmas when I get a new cool part and I guess it shows.

Man I have to hurry up. I really want to start tuning this thing!

Awsome flex. Specs if anyone is interested. GCM shock relocation kit. Upper shock mount in middle holes. G-Made 75mm diaphragm shocks using the 3 hole piston. Front shocks are proline scalers. The entire suspension worked freely prior to shock installation. I think it is important to ensure suspension is free of binding prior to installation of shocks. I have no idea on performance yet because I am still dicking with the interior. I need to become less of a perfectionist. I would complete my trucks and my honey do's a lot faster.
