It runs down the road super smooth and straight, and is extremely dependable. During the restoration process the Bronco was completely stripped down to the bare body shell.

The passenger and driver side front floors have been replaced. All the old sheet metal was cut out and the new panels were MIG welded in place, then sandblasted and painted with epoxy primer. The rear bed area is very solid along with the rear quarter panels seams. The front door post and kick panels are in great condition. The driver and passenger door strikers are in perfect condition.
