How long have you owned your Bronco?

Post by akaFrankCastle »

Curious as to how long you guys have had your current Broncos. I've owned them steadily for the last 10 years, but recently sold off the one that met that qualification.

I felt the same about my '66. Then resigned myself to the fact I had neither the time or space to put it back together. Then I see what Entourage has done in his garage and now I feel shame. :sad:

I have had mine since September 2010 and had a ton of fun ever since. I needed a hobby and this was the perfect Harley-Davidson replacement that will take me, wife, and 2 punks cruisin', wheelin', camping, and making routine errands fun! Cannot wait for Spring!

Punisher - thanks for the compliment on my Frame - hoping to get the rest of the Bronco done by Spring! I will lend ya my spray guns anytime to shoot your frame.

Great thread - results will be very interesting.

3 years and plan on passing down to my boy when he is ready, or when I feel he is ready. May and end up wih another. I would like to fix up an ol donkey and make it a bronco again.

16 days. But it's been a great 16 days, even if I have yet to drive more than a mile at a time.
