looking sweet, can't wait to see what you do for paint.:D
Way too many options to consider and I have to talk to my buddy that crashed it to see when he's gonna have the cash to paint it. I was shooting for a $1500 budget, which I think is gonna be easy to do. So far the expenses are:
$120 for the used parts I bought which include the bumper, hood, core support, header panel and the lights.
$154 for the new fender,hood hinge, bezels and grill.
$50 for the new head lights. (I paid the extra $15 since I got the crystal lights)
Thats $324 so far. I saved him the cost of the frame shop and the labor for putting it back together. Plus another $300 I saved him on parts. We still need to get a new windshield (around $100) a new tire (hoping my friend with the tire shop has a good used one) and the prep work and paint. As it sits now if I go to a bodyshop I think a new paint job will cost around $1500, and thats for a normal paint to match job. If I buy all the material and have my ex employee do the prep and paint I can get the custom paint work for less than $1000. The good thing is the bronco doesnt need a lot of paint.

I cant leave the badges off without having those holes there so I decided to take the moldings off. I think it looks cleaner without them.

Bronco has a new owner. My sister needs a car and I owe her one so I let her have it. With the condition that I get to buy it back if she wants to sell it.

You're a good brother :thumbs:
She's an even better sister. When i got married she gave me back my neon so I would have a economic car so I could save money. I sold the car when I needed some money and I never gave her a dime. She deserves the bronco.
