Sure, anything is "possible" but without documentation or more information to go on, all we can really comment upon is: "Is it likely?"
IMO, no. But who knows?
With so little information to go on, when you get right down to it, this discussion is just a Bronco circle jerk... and I'm saying that to be funny, not to piss anyone off (wow, two penile related jibes in one sentence). It's fun to speculate and dream about stuff like this. The problems arise when unsubstantiated stuff rises to the Lore and Legend status and is given more weight than it deserves. On the internet, that really doesn't matter much and the worst that happens is a guy gets flamed a little if it's incorrect. When a writer like me puts it down on paper, and it's proven to be incorrect, I get my liver ripped out ( : < 0) by the righteous protectors of the Bronco flame! So, yeah, I look at it a little differently.
I have studied a number of manufacturers (worked for one) and gotten deeply into their innermost workings. Yep, they all did a lot of playing around at different times but I have heard literally thousands of similar stories and if any verifiable information emerges at all, 90-95 percent of the time the stories get debunked. Still, you have to pay attention because there is that 5-10 percent of the time when the story is true or mostly true. When that happens, to paraphrase Dave Bowman, "It's wonderful!" Plus, going down the road to knowledge is fun IMO.
I've become an historian: I don't care about being "right" but I hate being wrong. My goal is to be correct.
