My Dad just turned 93 and still going strong. There is a lot to learn from these old boys. They live life to the fullest, are kind hearted to everyone, and never pass up an opportunity to help someone out with a broken down rig. Those aren’t just Bronco lessons, those are life lessons!
Thanks for an amazing video.

I don't know how many of you remember that Burnie was sourced from a 68 that had a cab fire and a "Bronco in a box" I bought from Emil at OCBR about 13 years ago. He had a bunch of pictures of a project one of his friends had started on, but he died. He was selling it for the widow. It seemed like a deal to me at $2,500. My son and I drove to Texas with a trailer, loaded it up and hauled it home. Emil gave us the full tour of his shop/warehouse. He is a legend, indeed.
