Very cool footage. I know the Bronco is a 77 but the pick up truck must be older - 74?

The short bed stepside I see in the pic is a 77 also.

Hi Todd,

In the shot with the large propane tank in the back of the F-250, he is the guy in the truck filling the fork lift cylinder. He's around the burner in some of the pictures and videos, too.
