Well, the BII is no longer the DD, so you'll start seeing some progress soon.

This is my new DD, needs some work and some polishing, but it'll be sick! 87 Starion Turbo

I'm curious, what happened to your "old" Bronco II? You wrecked it?

Yup, wrecked it. Hit a Tree.

It would have been OK, but both frame rails were bent. Not worth fixing when BII's are a dime a dozen.

I just got a new DD (the starion), so I'm now able to work on the BII exclusively. Minus the Fiat and CafeRacer of course.

Im also buying a house in the next month, so I imagine I'll be done with the front clip conversion by mid-spring.

Sick. I like it.

So? is it done yet?
Nope. Starion's motor had to be rebuilt, so the BII got kicked to being the DD, yet again. Once I have a good DD, the BII will be under the knife.

Starions motor is being reassembled by my brother, as my arm is broken. Once I get it back on the road, the BII will be torn apart.

This broken arm is wrecking havoc on my projects, not to mention my muscle mass. :annoyed:

Starion will be back on the road by next week. Then the BII will get some love.

So much for mid-spring...........

Starion's motor, all ready to be bolted in



Me cleaning the head some..

I put in new valve seals and lifters. This will be a great little drifter when I'm done

The Starion is done! It's nice to finally have a nice DD.

BII is now on the operating table. :icon_thumby:



(Of course, it's not 100% done. As we all know..no project really ever is 100% done.)
