  • This episode of The Dirthead Shed we drag an early Ford Bronco back to the shop . It’s time for this forgotten project car to get the attention it deserves and be reliable enough for an epic rock crawling trip in the Sierra Mountains of California. Follow along as Dirthead Dave and a couple of friends make it happen.

    This is exactly where you need to be, Dave. You are adding in details that has been missing from DED content, with the format length and other little minutiae that matters in completing a rig build.
    Although you don't have the Motor Trend budget, I think this channel is going to blow up to where you can probably be a full-time RUclipsr and leave OPP. Consequently, don't be afraid of delivering sponsored content if it pays the bills.
    Best of luck on the new hustle.
    You are your own boss now.

    One question thou, a while back on Dirt Every Day Daily you talked of your early learnings and showed a white book on chassis / suspension / geometry. Being an Aussie I lost Motortrend shortly after but always wanted that book!! What was it again??
