Little update. Krawler's Edge not delivering till 2018 and Nick's Trix currently not taking orders. Strong evidence that the economy is hot. Crazy. Thanks for the advice everyone!

That should also indicate how good they are.

What are you looking for in a bronco?

I personally specialize in restorations of original Broncos and have a couple extremely rare Broncos in early stages of an restoration now. Don't know if that might interest you or not? If your primarily looking for a resto mod I still might be able to help!

If your good, your booked

Not necessarily... there are guys who don't advertise because they like to under the radar. Also some guys who don't build Broncos as a full time job who still do awesome builds.

I know guy who just got done building bronco for a customer and the bronco was just showed at SEMA. But he a guy I'm sure you never heard of or didn't know that he builds Broncos.

Of course a buyer has to be careful who he/she buys their bronco from but your statement isn't necessarily true either.

I would let Jeff (gas pig) build me a bronco any day!

I also vote for Nick but looks like he's busy. Jason over at BC Broncos has been doing some nice builds with Coyote engines and Krawlers Edge has a really nice chassis but I don't know of their full builds, but I'm sure they're nice. Steve at Big Sky is also great but I know he's moving away from full restorations soon. But he might still do one for you. I'd call him.

As stated before run from Rocky Roads. Not having any first hand experience with build-a-bronco, I've seen both great and awful builds from them posted on this site.

Do not get anywhere near Velocity Restorations in Pensacola. I purchased one from them a couple years ago and it was an absolute mess. There are also a number of others on this board that reported similar problems.

Krawler's Edge, Big Sky, Nick's Trix, Velocity Restorations. Can't go wrong with any of those four. ;)

Whatever you decide, stay away from Rocky Roads at all costs!

Not close to you but in Arkansas is a forum member named John Dixon, goes by BroncoJAK on here. He's currently doing mine. Give him a call. https://www.facebook.com/JAKS-Restorations-534906583226660/

What he said about RR.

You can't go wrong with any of these others. I know John from Jaks and he does great work.
