Re: Big O
Got some serious work done yesterday. Keith dropped by again, I'm beginning to think he is putting in time so he can get a peek at my parts stash, he keeps looking under tarps and giggling. We are really close to having all the loose panels done, the hood will be the death of me for sure.
On to the pics

Re: Big O
Not having gotten my hands dirty on this job it's hard to give it a name. I'd be waiting for the finished product, or even a trail ride or two to see it's true character.
If that names sticks, we should probably say "booty" ;)

Re: Big O
Big O isn't rusty faded red orange anymore, Keith (plumbdoctor) and I put in some serious hours over this last week and got it painted, thanks Keith! Willem had a surprise birthday party yesterday (he turns 16 today) and it was unveiled there, as well as thanking all the bronco brothers who helped get it ready for driving; Phil, Matt, Greg, Drew, Justin, Tod, Mike, Jason, Chris, Jeff. Thanks a ton fellas. Willem and I have a few more items to do before he takes it for a spin, we'll get those knocked out this week while he's on spring break.

Re: Big O
Very nice. Where did you get it painted? I am looking at trying to get some estimates to have mine done. Did you have it all pieced out?

Re: Big O
I was there - in the passenger seat. It did happen, under her own power and all. It was the reward for installing all the glass.

Re: Big O
Small steps over the last few days; finished up wiring in the 79 tilt column, replaced the stock ps pump with a sag, installed all the seals, ran axle vent lines, bolted in the seats. Next couple if days should see it finished, need to bolt in the roll bar and seat belts and do a serious shake down run to find any bugs.

Re: Big O
Sounds like a good excuse for an easy trail run this weekend (chase vehicles loaded with tools, parts and fluids of course).
Post it up - I am willing to be you can get quite a group together. I know I would love to go!

Re: Big O
It's a stock lower shaft from '73 and up, I plan on doing a collapsing shaft upgrade soon so I have a bit more adjustability. The box is a 4 turn hybrid box (73 case w/ 76/77 internals).

Re: Big O
Cool thanks, I've got the 79 Bronco box & lower shaft, it will be close if it reaches without pushing the steering wheel forward.
