You ought to see it, I think it might have been me that named it that. He took a Chev Surburban and cut the back top part off and made a four door pickup out of it. Real cute. |

He sent me a pic--pretty cool. Jim and I are "Brothers" of a sort, we both have Steel-Hull Chris-Craft Roamers. Gary |

Ford made a 4-door full size bronco that you could take the rear fiberglass cap off the back to have the same thing. (of course the 2 door broncos and k-5 Chevy blazers would let you take the back off) |

It was made the same time the standard Ford Bronco was made. It appears to be a custom conversion by Centurion. It was a rare vehicle to find, but they are out there. Check out http://www.fourdoorbronco.com |

Hey Marty, OK, Not made by Ford though. I'll by that. My last four years as a wrench was specifically on Pickups, Vans & 4X4s. I didn't think there was a model that got past me. You had me worried. Gary |
