Update on my 72' bronco. Shes running good and waiting to be painted. I've had her out quite a few times this summer. Can't wait to bolt on the 2.5" cowl hood and get her all painted up in a nice charcoal grey. A picture from today after giving her a wash.

Thought it was time for a update in progress. Its been around a year since I started my build and the shop is currently being stuccoed and just got scratch coated yesterday. I installed some of the soffit but still have quite a bit to go, I installed the overhead 10'x9' doors with liftmaster...

Thats a decent size shop. How do you like the single overhead door in such a wide shop?

Very nice shop you got there. Very cool loft. That is one rusty bronco project. Good luck with it. I thought my 72' was bad when I got it but wow, you have your work cut out for you. How far you going to take that project.

Good looking shop you got there. All sloped to a drain is sure nice. What size is it? Looks like 12' in height.

I received lots of thanks and positive compliments from parents after the party. Some parents were even skeptical that their kids could even build such a piece. Anyways, lots of the kids told my son they want to do it again and build other things, like a go cart or bigger models like planes and...

Some pictures of the party.

The b-day party went pretty good, no burns, no cuts, no blind kids, overall a fun experience for them and me. They all got the hang of tack welding pretty quick. I set up a makeshift welding work station table in the garage. Each kid got a collection of precut parts to start with. Then we went...

That's why there will be no metal grinding or chop saw cutting. Just a horizontal band saw. I borrowed a bunch of welding helmets so everyone has one and can watch each other weld. We will for sure have a talk about what can happen if you look at welding without a mask, lets call it a "go blind...

So I've been looking and dreaming up something to do for my 11 year old boys birthday party this upcoming saturday. I decided I'm gonna teach 8 boys how to tack weld scrap metal together. They are all so excited for the party and can't wait to put a helmet on and weld. I figured it was going...

I figured it was time to start assembling some tools I've had in storage. The new work shop will be a blessing for organization. I got **** stored everywhere, from my sheds, to the attic, to a cargo van I got parked out front. Dug some boxes out of the shed this morning, I picked up this shop...

Your garage looks good. I have been very undecided and have been contemplating what to hang on the walls in my shop and now you convinced me after seeing your painted osb. Your paint scheme looks great btw. My shop is 1200sq/ft also. How you injoying all that space? Two lifts hey? Were the...

Slow process between work and all but I manged to get the side and rear garage windows installed with the help of my buddy John. Not to bad for $640 bucks. both are brand new jeldwen windows.

Watched it.....Man those fast video clips are neat. I laughed at that dog, he must have got whacked with a hand float a few times before. He sure knows to stay off the crete.

All I got to say is great post. Keep the photos coming of all the cool stuff. This is my favorite post here on GJ.. Just awesome transformation you've done. :bowdown:

Oh yah.. Great video of them biulding the shop. The guys were right on with there 1hr lunch break.. I didn't see the concrete pour video, both videos were the framing...

Very nice shop you got there! |I too like the chrome diamond plate. I'm using it in my shop for custom drawer ends and doors for my cabinets. What kind of program are you using for the video cameras? I like.

What kind & year is the primered project car in the one pic?

I knew those looked familiar. Elementry schools had those when I was in school threw the 80's ......green, orange, yellow..Nice. good score.
