4 door early bronco?



Is this a factory or dealer option? Or a home build?

Definitely a custom job.

Kind of cool how they put suicide doors on it rather than have to put a solid B-pillar in it

Photo shopped?


Guy made @ least one (in MI?) with the 'pillars' as you mentioned. It may B over on EBclassics dot com (may B I saw it in BDmag?)...
He w2as thinkin of makin others if money wuz provided. AND yer right, It looks better (to some) "stretched" (as a matter of fact, that seems to B the best way it can B researched - use that title)...

Yep! Has to be. Looks cool but I don't think it's real. Where's the rear window? With the arch in the rear door for the wheel well, there's no way that window rolls all the way down.

Photo shopped, see the wavy grass under it just in front of the rear tires and see the waviness of the topper? And the tree limbs just above the topper.

Cool idea though.

here's more info on that co. I mentioned:

"Four-2-Go" in Denver Colorado used to make body side panels for
stretched Broncos. They are located on 44th avenue down from Wadsworth
in Wheatridge, a western suburb of Denver. Dick is the owner.
They did a lot of stretched Broncos, and some they even moved the
motor back putting the air cleaner at the base odf the windshield. If
you get a chance talk to them for additional ideas.
/randy

It wuz on ecbr (a site still around) around 2004 that Randy (1st guy I saw had a lpg fuled 6 cyl bronk) so may not still B around 11 yrs later but check it out yerself. Can't post the pic as I've had difficulty w/the dial-up process.

(don't 4get the Centerion, ford's answ to the early Suburban!)

At least the one above has two hinges on the rear door. The top one is definitely a photoshop. Only one hinge on the back door. That doesn't work for long, if it happens to be real.

On edit, I do notice two closely mounted hinges on the top Bronco. Still .... too heavy a door, for hinges that close together, IMHO.

ParkRich....that is going to be one sweet Bronco when you're done. I've always wanted a 4 door myself, but a 69 and 66 will have to do for the time being. Please post more pics as the build continues.
