The wife was cleaning out the basement and came across a bunch of my old photos. She found some of the earliest pictures of my Bronco and some of the trips that I use to do. Man, to be young again. :)

The first photo is from one of my trips up Holy Cross. It's right as you came out of French Creek (I know the creek looks a lot different now, but don't we all after 15 years?).

The second was a 1975 Bronco with a camper that I bought out of 5-points in the 97-98 time frame. Paid $1000 and it didn't run. Sold it in 1999 or 2000 for $3k to a guy in Indiana and he paid for me to tow it to Chicago.

The last picture is from one of my first 4-wheeling trips after getting my Bronco in May of 1994. No way should a 17 year old been allowed to have a Bronco that nice. It was an all stock 1975 Ranger edition when I got it. 3 on the tree, dealer installed A/C (still have that tucked away in the attic), super clean engine bay. It's sad where it sits today but at least I now a thing or two and will be doing bits and pieces to get it back to as nice looking as it was then. I don't plan on returning it to uncut but the rust must go!

Anyways, thought I'd throw them out there for some fun.

Thanks!

Cool Pics youngster!

How was the Bronco with the tiny camper?

I've thought of putting on a small camper, as my Bronco is used mostly on the weekends for kids fishing, hunting and outdoor stuff.

It was awesome. It was one of the Four Wheel pop up campers specifically designed for the Broncos. I have some more photos of it fully setup. I'll get them posted when I get back to the computer.

Kinder has one for his rig, you should check it out.

Very cool!!

Those are definitely cool pic's, my wife recently found a picture of my first bronco, a 1970 Sport with all the 1970 trimming. I'll have to find it again and post it up. BTW, the guy I sold it to still has it.

As I was going through some old files I thought of this thread and realized it needed to come alive again with everybody contributing. Here is a video a buddy shot when we were in college in NM.

The ranger is mine (I miss that truck...2 tanks)! This may also be the best video to show why all need lockers !

With that being said...question of the day...what is wrong/different about the bronco? This is my buddies bronco and his dad got us into them. This one was a toy that we got cheap!

Hopefully it works as I have never linked a You Tube video.

Now lets see some old school pics/videos!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Leaf spring front end.

Yup...you win! For the life us, we can not figure out why someone would go to such the effort! Especially in NM..there are not many mod bogs !

Well done and good eye Zach!

My parents came over for dinner and brought a bunch of pictures. Some of them where from when my dad was in Vietnam. Low and behold, the very last picture:



This was about a month before he got shipped home. It was taken in Long Bihn.

Vietnam mustΓÇÖve been a popular spot for Broncos. Someone posted on FB a Netflix documentary about there that had a number of Broncos in the footage. Very cool pics. Tell your dad thanks for his service!
