    Might sound crazy but I wanted "Hammertone" look on the undercarriage so the only place I could find that is Rustoleum. We are using it from Home depot and I am putting automotive hardener in it. So far it seems to be working well. That is the whole frame and axels, springs etc. The underside of the body I am going to use lizard skin with the ceramic beads to reflect the heat. Inside of the tub will be bedliner. Exterior will either OEM green or a burgundy from a 65 Mustang1971-ford-bronco Vintage Burgundy.jpgJade Green 1.jpg

    I love about every color on an old Bronco... but Ron Burgundy looks pretty fantastic.

    Well gone some more done on the Bronco this weekend. Bodywork is really slow for me. I also had helpers! At least the bumpers are ready for final primer and then the paint.
