Looks good, wish my little brother was so motivated to work on his bronco, maybe you have some advice to lite a fire under his butt. Looks good keep the pictures coming. What did you use to polish the grill shell?

It's looking really good, you've put a lot of work into it and it'll pay off. Speaking of rust try living in utah, rust capital of the world. Lookin good though. What year was that corvette in the one picture. Back on the subject I think we could all agree your doing a great job and most of us would love to be able to do half of what you have done. Good job!
