7/6/14 Ride of the Week

I want to build one of these! I've always liked Broncos and Econolines. What a way to combine both!

Kudos to fmc56 for this very cool 61 Econoline with a 68 Bronco running gear.

ROTW

I, being older, can remember when Econolines were new. I also remember hot rodders putting a big V8 in the rear. Talk about a wheelie! As an exhibition and if able to keep straight they could easily go a full 1/4 mile with the front wheels high in the air. I don't know how they could see where they were going.

Congrates!!! Nice combo. I had a 68 Bronco (I stuffed a 428 B.B. in it) but never thought to cross breed it. Great idea!
