I posted one for sell on this site years ago that was a 64/65 ford pu with Bronco front fenders, hood and maybe doors. It was pretty cool looking. Probably could do the same thing with a unibody pu and it wouldn't have the bed gap.

This beauty?

Just met the owners of this rig at a car show in MA. Really nice people and I believe it is now listed for sale again somewhere on line (they mentioned the site, but I can't recall). I gave them the info about this site and about the May It Forward event. Not sure if they are on the site yet, but it was a very clean looking stretch.

This is the only one I can find that I have. If memory serves me he stretched the frame 10" around shock area and cut 9" front to back out of center of bed. He cut the front of bed off at spot welds and used a half cab bulk head that he cut down because he stood it upright more. He attached the bed front inside the door opening so that it looks factory.

I'd be interested in buying that one. If you remember the site that may have it listed let me know.
Thanks,

Stretching is cool, now to solve a cooling issue, add 3 inches to front hood and build a deeper radiator.

Look up "A Bronco story" on Youtube. They interview the owner of the green one on there.

I don't know if Tito is on here anymore, but here's the one he streatched a few years back. With the full width axles, it was a giant sitting next to mine!

Man every time I think of a stretch I think about Tito's bronco!

I remember when he brought it home and it was primer green, it really came around.
