Is that Arles Blue like on the defender 90. Love that color.

 

[Blue71]

Kinda wanted to know the color myself. Might be a little lighter than Arles Blue???? Maybe someone will chime in.

That's John Monroe's truck. He is/was a member of the LEBC in Texas. Unfortunately I believe that truck is cut up into a rockcrawler now. At one time he was going to make it so it was convertible from an uncut truck to a cut truck for rockcrawling, etc. I'm not sure how well that all worked out. I don't know if John is on classic or not. He was very active back in the EBML/Broncofix heydays.

you are correct. John is still around but less active in LEBC these days. at last report his truck is still in pieces but moving ahead slowly.

 

[Blue71]

In pieces??? EEEEEK! Man that was a beautiful uncut.

It would be a terrible shame if that bronco was cut at all. I do like modified bronco's but that one was just about perfect.

Here's a few more pics of it and it's progression. He rolled it a couple of years ago and hasn't been seen since. He's gone through a couple of different rebuilds on it but never seems to get it wrapped up. Hopefully he'll get it done one day.

Man thats ashame... you dont start with a clean uncut like that and build a crawler... that is just wrong... You get one in rough shape and make a crawler out of it.

Damn thats a little depressing.....

 

[bigjhoov]

His truck, and his money. That gives him the right to do whatever he wants to with it in my book. We all have our own paths.

 

[englewoodcowboy]

Eh to each his own... %)

 

[bigjhoov]

exactly......%)

He built a truck that people are still inquiring about. That uncut pic is 10 years old. Progression is inevitable.

easy to explain. the Dark Side beckoned and took over.

Are those m/t challengers with a bead-lock? BTW major major down grade, IMO of course.

WOW!! What can you say? It's a one way street and I bet if John had it to do over, it would be different. However, maybe he don't have the same "Bronco Love" as most of the community on this forum. Without the "Love" it is "just a truck" so cut it up, stretch it out, weld it in, bend it over.......well.. you get the notion.

Backl to the original questions, it looks like it WAS a '67 Sport and the color looks like the '66 and '67 Marlin Blue.

It even had the bright dash trim.

 

[douglasmiller]

I have a hard time seeing that as progression. One of my favorite Broncos of all time.

 

[67project]

This was painfull

 

[BajaBronco]

wow. To each his own, is true. Seems like there are alot of ho-hum already cut rigs out there to do that to, but maybe it's more fun to do it to a clean uncut?
