LAUGH!!, man that is a pretty good start, it ain't beat up, needs a good bit of rocker attention, but it looks like a good project with lots of potential. the bronco mirrors could work IF YOU LIKE 'EM.
i like them, they stick out cuz they are the only new tech on it right now.

If you got power mirrors, I say keep 'em. They look better than stock to me. What year Bronc are they from? ( I know it's F#$d parts, but power stuff is cool! )

Why would anyone laugh? The mirrors look ok, but I think you could find some better ones.

The mirrors are from a 95 or 96 bronco.
I work at Best Buy and we use it as a demo vehicle for XM satellite radio, thats why it has the lights and the stickers on the windows. It is a little high tech inside though it has a Pioneer CD player, a 6 disc changer,XM satellite receiver, 8 speakers, 3 amps, alarm system, remote start with remote throttle and 4 sirens. All the lights alarm remote start and throttle are controlled by a remote with almost 500 foot of range its kinda cool to watch someone walk by look in and then all the lights come on the truck starts and revs the gas with nobody inside!!

I like the mirrors and have been thinking about the same thing. They are some of the only (newer) mirrors with remote and heat that are on a stem. Just wish they were chrome to the root, the black plastic should be painted the same as the body color (IMHO). Let's get some interior pics!!

I would love to have satelite radio but I dont think I would want the towtruck light style of attenna:p:p
But seriously is the antenna the shark fin looking thing on the back? Alot of cars up here have remote starters in them, kinda need them in our winters :P |
