Jordan White Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I'm building a 1991 Bronco Centurion in the Nite trim (if anyone recalls, I previously built a 1992 F150 Nite). I'm starting with a built Monogram Bronco, and one of the Monogram F250 kits. The F250 cab was already cut down to make it into a regular cab, but I didn't do the best job cutting it and figured it would be good for this build. I cut off the front of the Bronco to get it to the correct length, and now just need to change out the rear wheelwells and fill in the roof. I also shortened the chassis, but didn't get a picture of it. Starting kit: SAM_0276 by mudder_trucker8 Front and back combined: SAM_0279 by mudder_trucker8 SAM_0280 by mudder_trucker8 Rough height with a set of Mud King XT tires from Fireball Modelworks, and the 8-lug wheels from the 78 GMC 4x4 kit.

Mercuryman54 Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 You'll need to change the rear wheel openings. I did kind of the opposite I used the Bronco front fenders and hood {doghouse} and the rear wheel openings. I added them to the 1992-96 AMT Ford pickup to make a 1980-86 pickup. Good start you have going!! Dennis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan White Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 So doing a bit more work last night, I realized that the two bodies aren't quite the same in height and profile. I realized that I will have to cut horizontally across the bronco body and add a piece in to get the right height, as well as to allow me to match the profile of the F250 body. Also I started cutting apart fenders to get the correct rear wheel arches installed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
