Turning a MPC 1981 Ridge runner Bronco into a 1992.... Have the body almost done and ready for the first coat of primer. but i am missing the axles so this may get delayed for alittle while.     The black lower 1/4 panels are from a 92 short box which i cut up to fit,and had to cut in the new taillite area.........once i got everything to fit.... |

Just about done with this project and its taken shape real well!!! I had to borrow the front 4x4 axles from another build i did last year till the new ones come in,and wanted to move along on this project... A run down on the list of parts used...(81 bronco MPC) Front engine member from 81 bronco grafted in front 4x4 axle from 81 bronco rear sub frame from 81 bronco transfercase from 81 bronco interior tub was cut and grafted the 92 front to it, and had to fill in the floor on the 81 bronco to make it flat..... engine is from 92 kit reworked the aod for the trasnfercase to work. 92 ford rearend cut to fit (narrowed it a tad) need to locate a rear bumper for it and get the decals in place under the hood and i can call it done. the back cap is alittle warped so once i get some gear in the back i will be able to glue it down..      |
