Tuesday night saw a silver one with black top off Union and Woodmen. The guy next to him was talking to him. I could only imagine the conversation.

The guy next to him probably said..."Nice Jeep!" I've gotten that three times in the past month.

Saw a blue one with a white top - 2 "old school" off road lights going south on Kipling south of 285 last night. Had a sticker in the rear window - may have been one of the CCB windshield stickers or something similar. Could not catch up to chat with him.

Black on Black "Shelby" Bronco

Post by Rox Crusher »

I was just getting ready to pull into Parker Hose store off of Sante fe and Oxford

Saw this sweet black on black sport

I followed him into the parking lot and struck up a conversation with a really great old man.

He was really proud to show me his pride and joy.

A 1971 black on black sport package with something special under the hood.........

The owner of the dealership ordered this Bronco for himself but decided he didn't like it.

Sold it to a buddy of his that was a motor head.

He had the dealer order a Shelby 302 and install it prior to sale so it came with factory warranty and all.

That guy put 43k miles on it before selling it to this guy who has put another 20k on it. Yes, this sweet arse rig has 63k on it and it in immaculate original condition.

Ol boy doesn't use a computer and wasn't interested in selling it (but did give me his phone #)

Saw a blue uncut at the saw meet today. Seen 4 guys over by it so we stopped to see if one was the owner. Wanted to leave a card. Come to find out 3 of the 4 guys were bronco owners as well. So handed out cards and shot the breeze with them. They sounded interested in the club. They also put on an all ford car show I'll post details about too.

Isn't any bigger than the 8274 on mine and I don't have a cooling problem (not since I sealed off the opening between grille and core support anyway).
Nice looking Bronco.

I noticed this green one with a black soft top parked at a Sushi restaurant at SantaFe and Littleton Blvd Sunday evening. While we were waiting for the light to change, a young couple - some dude with a cute blonde far to hot for him walked over and she hoped into the driver seat, fired the little pony up and drove her companion off, west bound on bowels. - Awesome!

Spotted the COS Stroppe again today, on Fillmore as usual.

Looks as though it has been in an accident. DS sheetmetal needs to be replaced and may have some frame damage judging by the stance. New driver I've never seen before too. Maybe the owner's son.

I've long since abandoned hope of ever getting them to join or at least talk for more than 5 minutes when I see them. Just sad to see the slow death of that truck.
