I wheeled mad hung out with Anthony and his family at a few round ups. Cool guy. His self taught fabrication skills were impressive. That was a great Bronco to get your hands on.

Here is a video of your bronco getting some mud on it.

I forget the guys name but I met the original frame off builder who sold it to Anthony. Very nice guy in VA. I bought a 9" and a plow from him. Have fun with it.

Awesome article and coverage! Congratulations Norm. I like how they captured the "stock on the outside" look but modern rock-crawler foundation. Personally, I'd like to see even more press on this beautiful rig!!! ;)

Thanks fatboy. (Wow, I feel like I just insulted somebody!%))

Some of you have ask about certain details on the '66. It was built by a guy who used to be a regular on here, Anthony Ramos. It has a kind of original look while actually being highly modified. That's what I love about it, because first and foremost I want the look of a great Ford product in my stable. Anyway if you want details on how he did the hidden winch, family style roll cage with front bars through the dash, 302 (5.0) EFI, etc just do a search on here for xcntrk and his post can tell you much more about it than I can.

I had a blast building the truck originally. I sourced a pile of 66 specific parts and it was still 3 speed on the tree and factory bench seat when I sold it to Anthony. He definitely put some super nice mods on it and kept the factory look from the exterior!

I have attached a few pics of the build and what it looked like when I sold it to Anthony.

Ha! Thanks for the kind words John. I had forgotten about that trip. I think we dropped off that plow with you and picked up a Gravely riding tractor for the trip back.

Anthony, looks like you got caught by the UTV bug by looking at your avatar! Hope you are doing well!
