Cant really remember when i started this one but wanna say 2001 or 2002. Decided i need to get it going as its been awhile and would like to see it finished soon! LOL one of them long term projects and as my skills improve i like to go back to old projects that have gone aray.........(LOL)

i think the bondo is dry considering how long its been LOL! and look no rust! thats aplus! LOL.............

One of those body projects in the begining that i didnt know to much about but went ahead and tried........I moved the wheel well forward to the stock location (had one in the driveway i took some measurements) Then started to wing it! with super glue and bondo till were i am now.......

Hope you enjoy! as i really wanted to share this one seeings how they will be out soon..........

Here's the driver side and i think its coming along pretty good

Here's another angle

This side i did get done some years ago LOL!!! so i gave it a polish once everything is dry it will be primer time!

I even did the inside of the bed correctly.....................LOL

the wheels are from the wild hoss Bronco kit! that have been detail painted, and parts box tire's! (but i am thinking of changing them as they look to small.....................

I plan on doing the same thing when the reissue comes out. My dad and I have a project '77 F-250 that I want to model, albiet in its former glory. He bought her new, and she needs help bad. Thanks for showing it can be done!

Lookin good so far man! I do agree with you the tires do look rather small. Any color ideas yet?

[James Flowers]

[Wildrice]

Looking good MJ. I have some larger desert dog tires. LMK if interested.

Here we go! Have some color on,BUT wow! was it damp yesterday.............

I have the box side's and the hood polished out and waxed! still need to do the cab.....

And i did find some new tires to put on it.

Not the best paint job in the world but it will do..........

Also started repairing the Grill ( you can see it in one of the pictures..)
