After selling my 4 seat rockwell buggy project, I picked up an EB that made its way across the mountain.

Im sure a few of you have seen this thing before, and maybe even worked on it...

Here is the build thread from when it came to NC:
http://www.nc4x4.com/forums/showthread.php?t=62081

When I got it, it had been changed a little... mainly the 302 was pulled for a "fresh" 351W with a demon carb...

Some of the things that it needed asap were:
- a better cooling system... cant keep it under 250 to save ur life
- fix rear driveshaft & axle... apparently along the way the rear spring perches werent welded on completely, and then after being wheeled some, the whole axle rotated and tore out the driveshaft

Some other plans I have for it...
Short term:
- swap propane on & get rid of carb.......... Done, still need to make a permenant mount & basket
- bigger & better tires
- beadlocks...... have them, just need to mount them
[COLOR="Gray"]- winch................ Done
- front locker...............Done[/COLOR]
- regear axles
Longer term:
- rear discs
- link the rear (4 link or 1 link)
- redo front suspension (extended radius arms or 3/4 link)
- add some tubing and do some sheetmetal work

Mainly I want to work out a few bugs and wheel it... I havent had a good rig in a while and really miss being on the trails... plus i wouldnt mind having something to run a few ECORS races in, if I decide

I dont have any pics from when I got it... I will update when I can take some pics

To bring you upto the current...

- I picked up a set of new 36 TSLs on steel wheels, and put them on..
- Ive gotten the rearend welded back in place, just need to put in the rear shaft
- put in a 3core alum radiator, with stock fan & spacer, and new rad cap & stat... think I have the cooling issue solved
- picked up a lockright for the front, just need to put it in
- put the propane on

holy cut the quarters batman!! you're doing a good bit of work. looks good. any plans to head down to the gulches with us??? sounds like something is brewing.

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - blazinchuck - 01-07-2011

hell yeah, that looks awesome!

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - ParadisePWoffrD - 01-07-2011

well as you can see in one picture, the quarters were basically rust covered with half inch of dough... after i trimmed them some for travel and a tree got ahold of one side they just needed to come off... plus i am linking the rear at the moment...

more tube and sheet metal will be added once i get the rear in place... and i am going to try to make it look like there are quarters still there...

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - ParadisePWoffrD - 01-07-2011

i have been trying to get down to the gulches for a few months now... there are a number of people going Presidents Day weekend... if I can get the rear wrapped up I might try to ride down...

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - chuzie - 01-07-2011

nice rig. hope to see you out at the gulches.

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - broncomania - 01-07-2011

i know that bronco. i picked it up late one night from gubni in tenn. it was the nc4x4 rock racer that was built and given away by raffle. i volunteered to pick it up and deliver it to the builder to help out the cause.

ParadisePWoffrd's EB - broncosbybart - 01-25-2011

how is the progress coming? gulches trip is coming up this weekend, conditions permitting. if not this one, hopefully we can see it in action soon.
