Heyooo! She sounds great! Nice and rich, haha! Troubleshooting the gauge cluster is such a pain.

Matt, thanks again for sharing your expertise. Always informative and entertaining.

[@timberry9625]

Matt, congratulations! You are a very dedicated person and now you have a super nice bronco to show for your efforts. I appreciate your calm cool process of problem solving. Now you can enjoy the fruits of your labor! Well done.

Thanks Tim!

Looks and sounds good! I see you got the early front blinkers installed. Looks much cleaner!

[@georgeburns5811]

Bronco is looking great!. Don't worry, you'll love it. You'll get more comments and thumbs up just driving down the highway than you can imagine. When you do the top, I found that removing the rubber pads from between the bows/braces and the top skin and shooting seam sealer between them gives a much better job. Looks better too.

Fantastic! Can't wait to ride in it!

Hey Bud, great job, I’ve been with your channel since the beginning. You have came so far, paint looks great

[@MattsGarage]

You have indeed Matt, and I appreciate it!

The digital voltage regulator is a good call. Definitely a good upgrade. The old style VR's oscillated between open (12V) and closed (0V) so they averaged about 5.5 V. That is why digital voltmeters don't work on them. Depending on where they stopped, you got full voltage or no voltage. The digital VR is definitely the way to go.

Looking great

Awesome, Matt! Great job, as usual! I am sure you will like it! You seemed to like driving my Bronco, and yours is WAY more solid, powerful, and smooth that mine! Any thoughts on Moab? I am thinking June!

[@pierpalicious]

So close, dude!!

Do the upholstery yourself. I did mine a few years ago. It wasn't that hard. Doing bench seats on my son's 63 Falcon now.

[@Halfwheelhell]

well, if you don't like it you've got some vehicles stashed to start work on! but why wouldn't you like it?

[@bullheadhomestead]

Matt, where did you get the rubber floor covering from?

[@MattsGarage]

Tom’s Offroad. I like it. Definitely less refined than carpet but it fits the vibe

[@JRM1969]

Believe me they are still awesome to drive but they are 50 plus years old. So not really. 👌great job built not bought. 👏
