It's a tad longer, what do you think.. custom made or a dealer fix? I think it might be on a Ranger chassis.. but I have no idea really. Whatever it is, it's done VERY nicely and is kind of a good look.

That actually sounds more reasonable than a ranger chassis. It looks to be only extended 6 or 8 inches, so a two door Explorer might fit that.

That looks like a 108" wheel base to me.

It's extended both forward and behind the rear axle.

Though there doesn't look like there's enough rear overhang
for the rear half of the leaf springs...

As the rear overhang appears to have been erased by the wheelwell position.

I believe it's on a FS bronco frame.

Them Icelandic's are known for doing stuff like that.

It's not a factory thing and it's for sure a one off. On one of the sites the guy gave more detail into what was done to it. I don't remember more than that. What I did know has now been replaced by the thought of Boobies. I need more storage space in my brain. Just too much out there to absorb.

Why not just get an explorer sport and reconfigure the rear side window arrangement?
(At least, that's what I am going to do...)

And Boobies CopyKat?

Hell, there is a space in my brain dedicated to Boobies and nothing but Boobies. :D

That's kinda cool lookin. Deff a 1-off job though.

There was a Bronco II Plus that IIRC was about that length, but it didn't look quite like that, the addition was a noticable thing. I might have to keep a look out for a BII Plus and try doing something like that to it... hmm...

I've seen that truck b4 maybe on here or maybe it was ford truck enthusiasts. Where ever it was they had several pics of it.

The BII Plus is ALOT different than this one. The BII plus looked like a MINI "Mini-Winni", raised top and all.
