Here are some of the driver's side. Bronco doors aren't very light and getting them into place without help can be fun.

On the interior pics, you can kinda see the beginnings of the seat structure for the front seats.

Looking good Charles!

Thanks!

Got some more work done on the roll cage. It is about finished. Went and added some bars to please Chuzie. As well, the seat framework is done. Tube was bent for the overhead bars and dash bar. The rear seat mounting brackets are positioned as well. Right now it is all tacked in place, but not finish welded. The front seats will need to have some more tube run for seatbelt mounting points for the shoulder harnesses. Not exactly sure on what to do there. I'd like to keep the area between the front and rear 'compartments' somewhat accessible. Still pondering on what to do but will think of something.

Oh, and I gave her a name. Ms Piggy! Today Clay came over for a bit and helped out. We moved a fair bit of stuff around and all of it was HEAVY! I don't think there is one light part on the whole truck.

Thanks for the help Clay!

Again, I really like that cage! Nice work!. I would love to have something similar. The triangulated corners on the halo and middle bars would be great spots for custom overhead speaker locations.

Had a helper today. He works hard.

Started tearing into the body to prep it for removal from the frame. I guess this was the prev. owner's version of tilt steering. At least the column came out easily...

Removed the tailgate, windsheld frame, and all the hardware attaching the body to the frame. We ran a big strap from the cowl to the tailgate area to keep the body from flexing. Having the roll cage being bolted to the tub will do most of the work for keeping things in place.

And, we have liftoff!!! That is Clay in the pics. He helped over the week end. The pics are a few days old...

Thanks again Clay.

Nice work as always Charles. Do you even drive all those broncos?
