Probably the best body swap (to 4WD) that I've ever seen. Love the color, and the fact that they did it with a 4-door just makes it all the more interesting. Very cool!

Did you watch the video? I know some of you don't like FB.... It's on a diesel frame. Sounds good going by.
Yes they did a great job. Not many schools have a shop class anymore so IMO it's great seeing stuff like this. And yes I liked that they used a 4-door body too. There are so many of these that turn out looking like SHIT. The only thing I might not appreciate but without better pictures is the tube steps/rock rails. Wished they'd move them closer to the body.
I have always loved the '66 Toros! Big, beautiful beasts!
They were very original , with wild styling and a stout 425 c.i.d with a T-425 front wheel drive auto based on a T-400. win -win !
I think International Harvester would disagree with that Poncho claim . Binder put a 196 c.i.d 4 banger in some Scouts ......
This Fiat out ran airplanes of the day ! And the engine defines NVH , ( noise , vibration , harshness ) ! Early badass for sure !

I'll have to write the author of the article and tell them..

You're correct about that. The article writer should have done his damn homework. As a point of interest, however, it might be worth mentioning that in the three years that the Pontiac slant-4 was in production ('61-'63), it did, in fact, beat out International's slant-4 displacement, as the corn binder was only at 152 cubic inches. The 196 wasn't released until 1966.
For what it's worth, my family has owned both of these vehicles with their slant-4 drivetrains. Love the distributor caps!
