I don't worry about bashing the body, The car might as well look good as it bumps around, besides part of the fun is making new shells.

Looks good, how did you mount those lights? I thought about taking some of the bumper lights and just drilling a hole in the top of the Bronco body then using a screw and washer in the inside... I doubt it will last after a roll over but still looks and sounds good.

Yea, I just drilled small holes in the top of the roll bar, actually they are on there pretty good and probably could hold up to a few light roll overs. I wont bash with this body though, I have that re enforced stocker I just built up fo that. I also have that wheelie bar now so flip overs shouldnt be a problem.
I finally finished putting it all back together and ready to take her out for a run tomorro, its been a couple weeks. I also took a few more pics outside....[8D]

I agree. All I do is bash, so I wouldn't want a body sitting around just colleting dust. Make it, break it, replace it. makes it seem like you get a new truck every couple of months (if your lucky) I like the body too. It is funny how close the lines are to the Jeep body.

I was torn between that one and the Jeep to be honest. but I really like Fords also drive one.
I will end up getting a Jeep though as well as another Savage someday....
