FINALLY....got my bronco welded....few questions...

[scotts90ranger]

Just a note to help in the future, instead of all the fancy knots around the mirror and bumper just put the tails in the door... WAY easier

Ya do what ya gotta do, things happen, I'm sure it'll hold fine but yeah... can't say all my sheet metal welds are fantastic though either, sometimes I give up and go for just "good enough"

Lol....yes i could of slammed them in the doors...but ive always been a knot guy lol.

It actually doesnt look horrible after i painted and seam sealed it. I mean my seak seal job was far from professional looking...and the paint i got wasnt nearly a direct match (it was supposed to be red...but dried more to a general lee orange? Lol)

Ill get some pics and post up.

Now im waiting on brake parts. I forgot to order the adjuster stuff...and everything back there was totally trashed.

The back of that thing was almost gone, now it’s got metal there… looks good enough to me. Protect the new metal and cover it with carpet.

Thats the plan. I got 2 or 3 coats of paint on it now im going to fluid film the piss out of it.

Got it fluid filmed, the ends capped off, (still gotta cap the bolt holes...i forgot to bring those, thats for tomorrow) and body mounts bolted back in....

It dont look *that* bad...atleast to me...but yes my standards are low.

Go sit in the drivers seat and tells us how the repair looks.

You're not looking at grass instead of floor; I think it looks great.

Both of you mirror my thoughts exactly
