      Robby there is nothing wrong with a ford as long as it has Chevy motor tranny and transfer case Cut that fire wall and floor motor needs way back AND UP! That way nothing is hanging down low and it would have good front to back balance! I KNOW YOU HAVE TOLD HILLBILLY EVERY THING I SAID AND MORE!!!!! Tell your wife to put her foot down hillbilly will take it better from her We know your struggles with having a hillbilly but you got to love them God bless ALL you guys

    Good on Hill Billy for sticking to his guns and not giving in to peer pressure, everything does not need to be a an LS.

    • @wiresmith2398
      @wiresmith2398 Год назад +4

      the LS is an amazing platform, amazing aftermarket, amazing availability - but the 5.0, the 4.6, even the 7.3 if you have deep pockets - Ford has a lot to offer as well!

    @Robby Layton Crew
    Glad to see Hillbilly went with a Ford engine for the BroncStar!
    My first two vehicles were Fords, first was a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500 4 door which my Dad left me when he passed away. The second Ford vehicle was a 1965 Ford F-100 Long bed which I had purchased when I was 16.
    Unfortunately, I let both vehicles go. Pulled the engine from the Galaxie 500 and put it in the F-100 since the truck engine was blown when I got it. I truly regret getting rid of the truck. Would like to have another 1965 or 1966 F-100, but those are very expensive now!

  • @robertr4193
    @robertr4193 Год назад +65

    Why not cut the tubes for the front end and just lengthen it to allow you to install the radiator. It seems that would be easier than taking out the engine and cutting the firewall out and re-wielding in a new one or section of one.

    • @mikedubetski
      @mikedubetski Год назад +11

      I agree with Robert....cut the front tubes and extend the frame out for room of the radiator.

    • @zyeborm
      @zyeborm Год назад +3

      I think there's a lot more work than there would appear to be in doing that, especially to do it to Robbies standards. That front looks angled all over do you can't just extend it.

  • @detroitdiy
    @detroitdiy Год назад +40

    So good to see the Bronstar getting some love, not everything needs an LS Robby. The 5.0 is a solid engine. That truck plenum is a power killer though. Needs an aftermarket intake with a different E.F.I setup. I am so hopeful to see more of this build. Are the front fenders going back on?

    Robby is finally finding the way to grow the channel. The secret Matt has is to grow channel players relationships with viewers. When you showcase Hillbilly, it allows people to enjoy the channel by investing in each person on the crew.

    • @MrDan1509
      @MrDan1509 Год назад +13

      SxS recoveries get old....that's why he does what he does. Matt can't keep anyone around either. Now Fab Rats is the same way. Robby does things his own way and it works. What Robby does for HillBilly is from the heart not for the sake of views!

    • @zyeborm
      @zyeborm Год назад +10

      Finally? He's been doing it since the beginning but not "to grow his channel" he's just a genuine guy who is good to his people so it's natural.
      It's why I watch Robby first from the southern Utah crew and why I unsubscribed from heavy d. The thing where heavy needs to be driving every vehicle and the hero of every shot got old. He became their brand so I get why they do it but it's just not nice to watch.
      Robby is just very nice to watch, I think that's the real southern Utah gang vibe. It's always friendly, it's predictable, it's violently free of politics. The good guys always win in the end. Just generally nice.

    • @rctjacksonville
      @rctjacksonville Год назад +2

      @@zyeborm I agree with everything you said. I was adding that Robby has expanded on more channel participants lately. Robby can certainly give credit to the tremendous boost from his association with Matt's enormous channel. The same boost Fab Rats felt.

    • @rm91857
      @rm91857 Год назад +3

      I always found FabRats and Robbie's channel more relatable TBH. I started with Matt's channel just based on youtube suggestions. They had good high dollar projects, but I found Fabrats more enjoyable because Paul is like a younger version of my dad. Robbie comes off as really genuine and he has shown some serious skill and artistic ability for someone so young, and I always enjoy watching him think through what he's doing. Hillbilly is like that friend that would go with you to the end of the earth. He's another genuine person and his candid nature gives the show a good feel. Matt's channel is starting to feel more produced and less real, and I wonder if that is part of what has led to the recent mass exodus there. Hopefully this channel stays genuine, real life is entertaining.

You can copy one from Fatrat ( the one he made for his son's dodge truck). He went up and over the front driveshaft with the tranny crossover. That keep the ground clearance. And for the radiator problem I would add2 to 3 inches to the front roll bar cage just my thinking 🤔. Have Fun 😊👍 Enjoying watching. Thank You 🎉🎉

    Bronc Star is a rough girl! With the V-8 you will want bigger tires, right? It’ll be a little monster when she gets growed up!!👍
