    Watching Jay drive this reminds me so much of a friend of mine. He's 82, been a mechanic his whole life, and built a 30's era Ford roadster from parts. It has a Ford flathead, 3 on the floor, no top and no mufflers. He took me for a wild ride with spinning tires, roaring pipes, and no speedometer. Watching his windblown white hair and youthful enthusiasm, I said, "I bet this car makes you feel twenty again". He looked at me, grinned, and said..."sixteen". Thanks Jay.

Men liked him, ladies loved him.
      He was the best interviewer there has ever been, and a colleague of Jay Leno.

      @C L I must agree. Smaller towns always seem to have better quality people. My theory is: 1) Reputation - If you do someone wrong, you will more than likely run into them, have mutual friends or family ties.
      2) More focus on family and community, so longer term planning and compassion.
      3) People remain human, not numbers. Less competitive for status and money, so less cut throat towards other people.

      Restomods too often deviate too far from the original design, feel, and purpose, destroying classic rare vehicles, when they should just be properly restored in a quality way using quality oem parts when possible. This vehicle is great because it’s still Ford, by Ford, and classy, keeping its heritage look. This vehicle will appreciate, whereas most restomods massively depreciate the value of the vehicle. There’s a reason stock unmodified classic cars are becoming so valuable... Their character and feel have not been destroyed. That original patina is nostalgic, and real.

    • @TheBabyDerp
      @TheBabyDerp Před 4 lety +1

      @@user-tb5ns7hc5i I understand why they are valuable, but I am a car enthusiast. I like driving my cars very regularly. Those super original cars and restorations belong in collections and museums.I love the musuems and collections, but it's not something I'd spend my money on unless I was rich. . I think that for people who drive their cars, restomods are infinitely better. I am a broke college student and I daily my classic (along with a motorcycle). Restomods allow for modernizing and upgrading while retaining the soul of a classic. I am not saying I hate restorations, but for a vehicle that is gonna be driven regularly, restomods are better. "but this is an OEM factory built masterpiece". It really isn't OEM factory built in my opinion. The drive train is over a half a century younger. Sure it happens to also be Ford, but in this case they are so wildly apart in generation I wouldn't call this OEM at all. I mean yes, it's OEM by definition but we're talking 1968 Ford vs 2020 Ford. Basically 2 different companies ran by completely different people and completely different engineers but happen to share history. This Bronco could be powered by a Hellcat, and it would be just as cool.

    I remember Craig's LAST show, 1 guest, Jay Leno. They talked about this bronco (before it had begun as a project) and how it was a 'joke'. But Leno told Ferguson "I'm going to do something with it". Finally, he did. Since that 'finale' show, I've always wondered what happened to it. But I just KNEW it wasn't going to be a 'restro', had a feeling somehow Ford was going to be involved. And I'd LOVE to see Craig's reaction.

    I owned a 65 and a 71. The 71 was my first vehicle I owned. Had factory 302, we swapped out for a 351. Should of never sold it, guy who bought it took it and destroyed it in rock quarry. The 65 was years later, was a piece of junk I bought for $300. Had to rebuild the original 265 and it run like a top. I sold it to wife's nephew, he put new body on it, etc. These guys done exactly what I always wanted to do making a true sleeper truck. Outstanding job Jay and everyone involved in this project.

He brought it over to my house and I took it for a drive. Wow! 3 on the tree and it scratched rubber on every shift. Just a beast of a truck.
