I have seen this one around Highlands Ranch a few times before. Last night it was parked at the outdoor concert in the park that HRCA puts on every Thursday evening throughout the summer.

First time I have been able to look it over - did not have any sighting cards with me...

I saw this one yesterday right across from where I work parked in front of the hardware store in Aztec. I couldn't help myself, as I walked to the coffee shop I eyed it, then after my coffee run, walked across the street & waited for the owner. He said it was a '69 and he'd had it for awhile. It's got a 302 & 3 on the tree. He referred to it as his money pit, LOL I thought it was different if you look close the rear cut outs are molded in to look factory, not a great body work job, but still a nice looking rig.

Probably a 'glass tub. Not bad looking though.

Saw a sweet looking Bronco on a trailer being towed east on I-76 yesterday afternoon. This was out by Sterling. Ragtop, lifted and what looked like Grabber Blue color.

Met up with an owner in Edgewater tonight; his name is Terry, and I gave him a card. Nice '73. Hopefully he'll join up. Sorry no pics.

On the way home from Landshark's place after helping him install his windshield - saw a pretty sweet green one, soft top down with a rack of off road lights parked on Downing by Wash Park. Son took pic and we tagged her. Hope she shows up here, sweet ride.

I think I saw the same one, had temp tags. I saw it in the parking lot at PF Changs at Park Meadows mall. I was there for the wifes B-day dinner and she gave me "the look" when I mentioned I was going to go and talk to the guys piling out of it .... well needless to say - I walked straight into the restaurant. It was seriously sweet though. Black body armor on the rear quarters, looked like 37's.

Damn - I wish it was still there when we came out, he would have had a card under his wiper for sure!

Met Dennis over in Falcon, actually out towards Falcon H.S. on Eastonville Road. My son had a JV football game out there. He has a 1977 Bronco, grey with a white top. He has had it for about 12 years. Actually it is his son's Bronco now. Hasn't been on the road in a while and has left a nice huge stain on the driveway! Said he has changed out all the fuel lines, added an electric fuel pump and changed out the mechanical pump several time but it still ends up "sucking air." He was hoping to get it back in the garage soon so that he can work on it while his son is away.

When I was leaving, he pointed me down the street to a house on Buschborn Rd. I think he said he calls the guy Bronco Bob or Bronco Bill -- I can't remember, sorry. So sure enough I drove over and there seems to be a whole gaggle of Broncos out back -- plus a rock crawler. Someone on CCB I hope?

I never met Dennis, but drove by his bronco daily when I lived out there.

The guy with the gaggle of broncos is Joe. rjlougee is his screen name. Interestingly, I bought my bronco from Joe in 2004-2005ish. And Dennis' bronco was setting in the driveway then. Don't think I ever saw it move. :(.
1973 Bronco, 351 SEFI, Locked, discs, 35's ZF-5spd and Atlas 4spd. 235:1 Crawl Ratio. It may be ugly, but it's slow.

Yup, that is the right house for Joe! And yup, from the looks of it, Dennis has not moved that Bronco in a while. Right on the road there I am sure many have asked about it -- looks like it would make a great project / driver for someone. He did say he has changed out the floors front to back.
