believe me when i say...I WISH:crying:
the very next thing that is planned to get ordered is the mustang II front suspension. I already have the custom front crossmember from FatMan Fab.
but the suspension is $1500!!! thats gonna take some time to get that cash together. thats all i need for a true rolling chassis. I have a 17' hobie cat shawn gave me..if that sells, i can order the suspension instantly. keep ur fingers crossed

im so ready to do something...sucks not having any money for this project!!
i might start messing with the rear axle and springs. im sure i gotta do a dropped frame section, but im gonna try 1st atleast. Shawn has the wells...he was trying them on his 86 fox. tax season is round the corner so im hoping i can get the front suspension ordered with that...then i should have a roller.
if i found more money, i would start with the narrowed nine and 4 bar system...but i dont see that right now.

Google searched "rat rod bronco" and that popped up on the images. i think the chopped window helps the look out a lot.

I dunno. I really like the halfcab idea. A chopped top would be cool looking, but i prefer not to get bugs in my teeth while driving
I really like what guys are doing with the streetrod idea nowadays. for driveability and fuel mileage, i'd love to see an ecoboost or something similar in one.

this thing looks like a good start.... I have wanted to build an early blazer like this for a DD ever since I found out I was gonna need a back seat soon. If I could find the right deal on an EB, it may sway me for sure though...
