mrc 810 #1 Posted January 10, 2012 hi guys, here is my bronco14. i know the decals are not correct. i do not like the original bronco decals. so i added the decals i like. a guy i know owed me some money. he owns a powder coat business. i had him powder coat the sheetmetal in exchange for the $$$ he owed me. i upgraded to tach-a-matic. i hope to use this machine this coming summer as my mower. hope you like the pics. mike in mass.

Riley088 63 #5 Posted January 11, 2012 Looks really nice. I have been thinking about the powder coating process also. My only concern if I don't powder coat the whole thing like the transmission, frame and some other things how do you match up the paint to the powder?

mrc 810 #9 Posted January 11, 2012 riley088, i suppose you could have the sheetmetal powdercoated. then take a piece to a good auto paint store and have them computer match it??? thanks for looking. mike in mass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AMC RULES 37,127 #10 Posted January 11, 2012 Decals look real good, and I guess I like it two toned too. You're saying everything except the powdercoated sheetmetal is painted then, correct? :scratchead: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrc 810 #11 Posted January 11, 2012 amcrules00, you are correct. everything is painted except the sheetmetal. i know the tear down pics are not the best. would i like the sheetmetal shade of red to perfectly match the frame, engine, etc.??? of course i would, who would not??? i usually have "many irons in the fire" so to speak. i did not think i was ever going to see the money the powdercoat guy owed me so i figured i better get what i can NOW!!! let me just say the bronco looks a lot better now than when it came in my garage!!! thanks for looking . mike in mass.
