These videos are like therapy for some reason, they always make me feel better; I guess it's because I grew up with powerblock TV and this shit feels like "home"
This is the most amazing thing I've watched happen on UA-cam and am otherwise speechless. The professionalism of POWERNATION's teams, production crews, and overall presentation has no peers.
I can’t begin to tell everyone what a great cause this is. There is so many veterans and first responders living on the streets. I don’t believe people realize what they are going through. Some of them with their entire family, even little kids, are living on the street. If there is any charity worth giving to, this is one of the top.
It started so long ago, I can't remember..............think back to when you started constantly being asked if you are Hispanic, that's where all the charity is going. Wow, I sound racist.
Can it really be called a restoration if you got all new stuff? I’m just wondering what the point of pulling apart the other one was 😅 Y’all should get the other one and use it as a “build on a budget” off-road rig. I really enjoy these full build videos, keep them coming!
I agree. I think the term restoration was used very liberally and is kind of misleading. It's a real shame to see how little of the "original" Bronco was actually used in the new build. I think the vehicle turned out amazing nonetheless and was auctioned off for a very good cause. But again, sad to see how little was actually "restored" not replaced.
My first vehicle was my parent's 1983 Bronco that they purchased new. I was given it when I turned 16 in '92. Loved that truck with it's lethargic 351 WIndsor.
this is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. haters gon' hate. well done, and for an amazing cause. I wish we could've seen it run and drive though
I used to watch these shows with my father when i wae a teenager. You get one episode on a Sunday and had to wait a week for the next. Always missing one or so lol. I wish he was still alive to witness the entire series with no commercials lol.
I was thinking the same thing. I loved a Sunday sitting on the couch with my dad watching the power block. He passed in 2020, wish he was still here we could sit and watch all the episodes for one build in one sitting.
The paint and body guys are studs. That's a killer job they did. Gotta say though, this isn't a restoration, it's still incredible, but it's a full kit built at this point. It's not "Restoring a classic Bronco with a modern twist" it's "Building a modern Bronco with a classic twist".
I have a 66 ad of this Torquise Bronco and someday I'd love to have one. I wouldn't mind an international scout sitting next to it too. There great offroaders.
I remember the international scout I had one with the 345 V8, 390 lockers front(!)and rear, and that Granny low gear 4 speed. I love that truck. Lima bean green, I remember I took the roof off and the doors wouldn't open and close no more, LOL. Nothing could beat that thing in the mud with that front Locker. I never saw nothing like it you couldn't turn the truck at all not even in the mud, it was almost impossible to steer when the front was locked. But it would go through shit that my buddies trucks on 38th couldn't even touch, and I was on some old ass white wall tires!!! I won so many Bets with that truck in the woods, I miss that thing. Best truck ever. 🚜💯💯💯💯💯
I totally agree 💯💯 with you on their idea at the beginning of the show! I have my '65 Scout 80 with 304, 700r4 and dana 300, 3.73, skyjacker 2" SUA reverse shackle, 33"s, p/s, hydro boost. Solid truck. I never cared this much about the exterior panels, just the meat, and potatoes for camping, road trips, and trail rides.🛻🏕🔥
We had one affectionately named "the party scout" it could scout out any party at any remote location and never failed to get our loaded asses out of the woods. It was fun to be young and dumb for a while. Happy we survived it.
I love the Coyote motor, and I'm glad they kept with Ford. That being said, you can see why LS motors are a popular swap for Broncos and Jeeps. The coyote's dual overhead cams take up a lot of real estate. You can get similar supercharged horsepower out of an LS, with more torque. And they likely wouldn't have had to slice anything to make one fit.
A modern Bronco interior would have been very cool on this build, giving it a modern interior with the modern exterior. They went the right direction with the engine option without a doubt. It’s what ford should have offered in the new Bronco. I would also utilized a Marine grade boat deck flooring by SeaDek with the custom logos and Bronco logos added to them for the flooring. I’m curious though! If they went this far to make everything so nice, why didn’t they loom all the wire under the dash and under the body? Why didn’t they utilize LED lights? Especially if they keep calling it modern!
I never served in the military. I survived drug addiction and homelessness without any support. I have PTSD too. People who never served in the military suffer PTSD and mental illness too. I totally appreciate what you are doing for folks with mental illness. Have a great day.
I intended to break this one up thirty or so minutes a sitting .. yet here I am two hours in and cant stop watching.. I was miffed at getting rid of the old and not fixing it.. but time and trouble put a kabosh on that so I get it.. man what a joy to watch so far.. I takes a village and you have lots of good folks in that village. Well done.. so far.. lol
Man great videos I love Alfas and have owned 3 105’s. I wish I had another but they are pretty rare and really expensive in Oz. Also most of them have been restored now. So I am living vicariously through your channel thanks
Currently on #3 ,a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado LTZ . Very happy with all aspects including the dealership believe it or not. Always early second owner under 7k miles. Save up , then wait for the phone to ring.
My ct9080 says made in the usa right on the tool... thats why i dont mind paying more. Ive had mine for 4 years and it's been perfect. Everytime i use it you can tell its made better, its just solid.
Love your sarcasm. I feel exactly the same way. I'll give only one example as there are so many more examples to give: Near the end of the Video at SEMA, the Directing Manager from Sonax stating that his company put in 250 man hours for the polishing of the paint on the Bronco. This is an astonishing amount of material and labor invested and is likely one of the smallest contributions. I'm sure that everyone and all the companies contributing to this Bronco did it for charitable reasons. A.K.A.: All parts, materials and labor were likely donated. We all know that it was for a good cause and I don't want to seem too antagonistic... Yet, it all seems like such a waste considering that $135,000.00 final bid. And at the same time, I feel like $135,000.00 was way too much for this Bronco. Next time they try to do a good deed, they need to set up a fund raiser. The fund raiser would better serve the charitable purpose without the extreme waste.
lol a couple thousand bucks for what exactly ??? the paint material cost more than that , labor would be another 5-7 grand for body and paint , there's 20-25 grand in body panels, 30 grand in drive train , 20-25 in chassis and axles another ten in suspension... never mind all the other little stuff probably adds up to another twenty ... then labor for all the other work , fitting the engine building the suspension interior etc etc etc ... so which part do you think would've only cost a couple grand ??? the wheels and tires??
Great video, and these boys did some darn fine work! I wish they would address the elephant in the room on what became of the original 74 Bronco…basically they used the door latches and glove box…a shame they tore down a running, driving Bronco
Exactly. Because of the cost of finding an old Bronco and restoring I looked at doing this exact same thing. Down side is you miss out on restoring a piece of history and end up with a kit car. I am not sure how they can still call this a 74 Bronco. If that is the case then anyone could look for a completely destroyed Bronco and just buy the title from someone.
@@trirunner2520 That's about how it goes these days. Everything I see for sale under $10K, and often even $20 or $30K is no better than what these guys started with. For a looong time already there has been a market for Bronco titles & vin/glovebox door tags, ideally with the frame too. I took a consignment from one of the more famous Bronco builders this past summer and when I inquired about getting a title and vin tag for a project Bronco I was considering building from the ground up with a new frame, the guy said no problem we've got plenty of those.
My dad had a Red and white sport with chrome, 32's, roll bars, push button start, locking hubs. We ran that all over the Oregon coast. Think it was a 69. Would love to have one like it.
Sounds excellent, mostly because you’ve honoured your dads memory (and maybe teed into yours?) with your post. Remembering times with my kids and grandchildren Trump everything other than meeting my wife and owning motorcycles of the golden era (1970s Japanese: they were the essential backdrop to the punk & new wave revolution we enjoyed). Sounds like a great vehicle & parent too? :)
I like it a lot except for when you guy's leet weight down on two coil springs, no back up ⬆ don't care how you have them set hydraulic jack could have had a bad seal kick out one spring it doesn't take much too a human head and believe me I did some crazy stuff but after watching my good friend becoming disabled it changed my respective on coil springs other than that good job so far.
I understand where you guys went with this build simply because of scope and time, it would still be great to see the original tub and chassis saved and back in the original ginger bronze colour. Unless it already went to scrap last year.
Stunning build. At 135k selling price... honestly with how expensive stuff is these days it's not that bad for all the work and man hours put into it. Probably 35k above an oem build of lesser quality and part strength.
Hope you do not have the problem I had with a 72 Bronco. Swapped in a 351windsor. No problems until. I started doing low speed crawling. Would overheat and vapor lock. Finally figured out the small engine compartment. Was holding too much heat and fan could not push it out. Installed a couple of vents in the hood and cowl induction scoop. Which solved problem.
@@funtyes1970 Heh. Nice sarcasm. Yet it is possible that the new owner may experience similar troubles. Hopefully the new owner either reads Mike's comment or comes to the same conclusion/solution in adding vents/induction to aid in dissipating the heat. @mike noneya Passing on personal experience and educating others is always a bonus. Well done.
you can't transfer vin on any car ever !!!! when you build something like this you get a new vin from the secretary of state or dmv in your state , sometimes it's listed as a custom hot rod and sometimes you can list it as what you intended it to be , ie; a 74 ford bronco
Nice freakin’ job guys!!! 👍👍👍WOW 😳😎. So cool! Man I wish that I had the cash to buy her and give her a good home. After retiring a couple of years ago from 35 years of long haul trucking that would be my fun vehicle and the osteoarthritis and health issues be damned. Well done gentlemen to all who had a part. You can take pride in that build. Suuweeeeet! 👍🤗
Gorgeous built from the ground up, I couldn't bring myself to part with it, I'd be afraid to put a mile on it to drive it!!! I might have to put it on a Dyno to test the horse power?
It is so awesome to see all the different PowerNation teams working together on 1 beautiful ride. Great job to everyone one involved with this build. You all should be very proud of the end product and building it to benefit the veterans of all the different organizations.

Very impressive-although restoration seems a stretch when they basically built an all new truck.
Can it really be called a restoration if you got all new stuff? I’m just wondering what the point of pulling apart the other one was 😅
Y’all should get the other one and use it as a “build on a budget” off-road rig.
I really enjoy these full build videos, keep them coming!
I was wondering about that too where is the bronco from the start it needs 40s
I think the scope just crept out of control so the body and chassis were no longer used.
I agree. I think the term restoration was used very liberally and is kind of misleading. It's a real shame to see how little of the "original" Bronco was actually used in the new build. I think the vehicle turned out amazing nonetheless and was auctioned off for a very good cause. But again, sad to see how little was actually "restored" not replaced.
Especially pretending the original body was "to far gone" to use. It's just so they can try to sell sponsor spots.
exactly body was bad but it wasn't any worse than a full resto truck tats 50 yaers old
My first vehicle was my parent's 1983 Bronco that they purchased new. I was given it when I turned 16 in '92. Loved that truck with it's lethargic 351 WIndsor.
this is the most beautiful thing i've ever seen. haters gon' hate. well done, and for an amazing cause. I wish we could've seen it run and drive though
I'm not even a car person, but I love this build, and i think someone will really enjoy this for many years to come.....
This isn't a restoration anymore, this is a 1 of a kind hand built truck from the ground up
That thing look's like it came out of a factory. Nice!
Brings back memories. I used to hang doors and fenders at GM. 1 every 53 seconds. SUCKED!!
I used to watch these shows with my father when i wae a teenager. You get one episode on a Sunday and had to wait a week for the next. Always missing one or so lol.

You’ve brought tears of joy to this veteran, thank you and all the people involved in this build… it turned out beyond beautiful
I’m so glad you donated the money to a great cause
I hope you get a new frame too to so you can put the old one back together.
God bless all of you guys for all your hard donated work.
I'm sat here still waiting for this "Restoration" you mentioned in the title to this . . . .
Restoration portion consists of riveting on vin plate.
FANTASTIC Guys. What a great example for teamwork. I live in the UK. This was the best vehicle build on UA-cam. It is just amazing.

I am grateful for the step by step explanations. Thank you. I don't know much about suspension components
There's alot to learn, but everyone has to start somewhere :)
Wanna see an International Scout II BUT, keep it a simple BEAST!

im so happy this show is still going! i touight the only episodes that are here in youtube were old ones.
More like building one than restoring.
Much Respect and thank you for your service
Damn if OJ would have had this bronco he would have definitely gotten away

Nice job!! Should have upgraded the lighting along with all the new goodies.
It's obvious Steven is a man of very few words!
really sweet project and for a fabulous cause
That dash looked awesome except for that big run in the middle of it.
Awesome, great show and great old Ford 😀 👏

Awesome !!!
That Bronco is getting better looking piece by piece 👍
Such a cool build.
WOW, If I didn't know better the Toyota at 3:17:51 is mine. Other that the lift that was what I bought and drove for years
Men AT Work. Thank You.
Yes! Finally a full build for Project Crazyhorse!
i can't believe you put that dash in the truck with that big giant run in the paint!!
wow i saw that too, no way they let that slide
I love this guys. Make a new bronco from new parts. That is bad too the bone. The spot welder is the bomb.
My step dad had the 1st Gen for hunting here in Louisiana I’ll never forget one he snap the axle out on pipeline boy I was like 5 or 6 crazy yrs
Man my favorite truck ever built!
The best 2022 bronco made.
Currently on #3 ,a 2019 Chevrolet Silverado LTZ . Very happy with all aspects including the dealership believe it or not. Always early second owner under 7k miles. Save up , then wait for the phone to ring.
Was a awesome build
2:23:00 look at those runs on the dash! 🙈
Thanks!
Gotta love the egro-nomics on that car-o-liner
Magically
Quite Epic…what a beautiful Bronco Love it🦾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What a ride.
This was a great watch!! Thank you!!
I would have killed to have the actual bronco at the beginning…

It's great to see what life with unlimited money would look like
Beautiful looking truck, guys. Congratulations on a wonderful build.
Was a awesome build 😀👍🏻👍🏽
Just beautiful 😊

This is my most desired car you ever Billy ❤❤❤
I love these 3 hour builds. How's the VIN work for that though? Is it tranferrable in the US?
I'd like to know that aswell. But then again, in the US there could be an exceptional rule for one off builds?
rebodied vehicles are legal though kinda problematic
@@SuperGreyknight So how is the problem with the VIN solved then?
@@DomEngines In some states, you can transfer VINs to different bodies. Depends on if it passes safety inspection, some states don't allow it at all.
you can't transfer vin on any car ever !!!! when you build something like this you get a new vin from the secretary of state or dmv in your state , sometimes it's listed as a custom hot rod and sometimes you can list it as what you intended it to be , ie; a 74 ford bronco
