Default Re: My new Bronco

According to Kar-Kraft employees, Bill Stroppe came up to Detroit to personally work on this prototype. As you can see, many Stroppe touches were added. The 351W and auto transplants really reminds me of what Don Yenko was doing before things were handled at Chevrolet.









Here the truck is on Fran Hernandez accomplishment list.





If you're unfamiliar with what vehicles all went through the Kar-Kraft facilities your in luck. Next June a book will be coming out on Kar-Kraft and its many projects. Cars that will be covered will be:

MkIV and GT40
Trans Am Boss 302s
LID Mustang
Composite Mustangs (1/4 Horse, 2 built)
Boss Bronco (my truck)
Production Talladegas
Production Cyclone Spoiler II's
Production Boss 429 Mustangs
Production Boss 351s
Boss 429 Cougars (3 total)
Car & Driver Boss 302 (Brock Yates)
Boss Mavericks (302, 429)
Ferguson 4-wheel Drive Mustangs & Fairlanes
Mach 2 concept car
Bunkie Knudsens personal Talladega
Smokey Yunicks Boss 302
G7A Can Am car
Supe Sno Sport 429

And about 15 other projects that you can Google all day and not find a single word or their mention anywhere. Honestly, what on that list doesn't get your juices flowing even on a Chevrolet forum!
