Inspiration for a '21 mod? How would you do it?

Dropped suspension,
Rear tire delete,
Rear tailgate mod,
20inch wheels,
Custom hood,
Probably custom painted fenders
Custom exhaust...could go on with a lot... Thoughts?

Oh hell no !!!! , that's just wrong. Not a Bronco at this point , just my opinion.

We all know ground clearance is a factor of tire size and the lowest part of the axel, not suspension lift...

What has at least four tires and a motor? A car. Bronco is a brand, not a specific physical manifestation. Just my opinion.

The reason I say not a bronco, looks to much like a 80s scout , ( the poor man's bronco )

Just out of curiosity have you checked into the prices of Scouts lately?

No offense, just an old saying us classic Bronco guys used to say, and yes I do know how much they have gone up, pretty much anything classic has gone up in the last 10 years or so. That's why I'm able to get 30 to 50 thousand for my early broncos I restore and sell.

When Scouts were new, yeah. We had a Scout II back in the day, long, long time ago, my father had a knack for buying high and selling low. Now for a rough partial body you are talking 7-10 grand. Fully restored and restomod drive train I've seem 'em ~250K.

That’s a Scout, not a Bronco.

Stop thinking 20 inch wheels belong on a a hot rod!!!!

I know I'm old school but I will never own anything bigger than a 17 that is until I trade my squatch wheels for silver steelies.

But as far as a hot rod bronco goes I'd love one. Godzilla swap it, 7spd with "C"ruise gear, and the 4A tranfercase for the drags. I wouldn't lower it but use base suspension with stiff springs and bigger sway bars. Tires would be something like a 295 series Radial TA. Definitely side pipes and maybe big bulgy painted flares. Velocity blue with a flame job up front. Hood scoop, thin aluminum bumpers. All on a 2 door with roadster style door inserts with soft half doors. Bikini top with custom stiching.

I would rock that.

Yes, the link is a scout, no arguement there - it's the inspiration for a hot rod Bronco mod....

Here's a start. ('Lowered' with MS Paint)
I'd put some old school aluminum slots wheels on it, dark tint the windows, and try to do something about those huge wheelwell arches.... maybe a flare delete like 4WP offers but extra wide.
