Default 1966 Ford Bronco

Thanks to Icon, an L.A.-based boutique manufacturer of industrial-grade SUVs, it's back and more beastly than we remember. The body panels come from lightly worn vintage Broncos, but the rest is all brand-new, including axles from a military supplier and the 420-hp V-8 engine. The cabin keeps with the utilitarian theme: You stare at gauges inspired by Bell & Ross's pilot watches and sit on woven Chilewich vinyl because, as Icon founder Jonathan Ward says, "Leather doesn't last." The result is a reincarnated Bronco with the original's ruggedness ratcheted so high, you're not sure if you should drive it to the beach or the front lines.
