SIDE QUEST: Ford Bronco Fender Pickup & FREE Vintage Tools!

The Ford Bronco Sasquatch rebuild officially begins! In this episode, I'm hitting the road across Michigan to hunt down essential parts and tools for my wrecked 2022 Ford Bronco. First stop: Berrien, Michigan, to pick up a much-needed fender from a used parts reseller who went above and beyond. Next, I head to Kalamazoo to pick up an incredible haul of vintage tools from a friend's grandfather – tools that will be vital for this entire build and future projects.

Join me as I explore hidden Michigan backroads, reflect on finding opportunity and chasing dreams, and finally get some hands-on time with the first pieces of my Bronco restoration puzzle. This video is all about the initial hustle, the invaluable finds, and the philosophy behind diving headfirst into a new passion when you have "no idea what I'm doing!"
