That bites.
I have been looking all over an I find nothing. I just bought one from the local trader (classified sells paper) And the very next day I see one brought in to the auction lot next to work. The auction is apr 6. Maybe I can scavenge up some bucks by then and get it for cheap. Lets hope no one else there knows what its worth. Its uncut, but I couldn't get a close look at it to tell what year are anything. Any obvious exterior differences on the diff years that may tell me what it is. maybe tommorrow i will try to get a pic of it. The week before the auction they give out year mak and model and vin# so I guess I can wait till then. :'(

Here is a bronco a spotted about 5 miles from campus. It is in a back yard up on a hill. This pic was taken from the road on the other side of the hill.
I took the pics while driving my bronco so they are not great.

I get it from my dad. His love for classic boats takes us on all the "Back roads" looking for that undiscovered "find". While he's lookin' for boats, I'm looking for Broncos!
Here's a link to an article on his shop, "The Boat Works"

We're planning another trip this weekend!
Broncos here I come!
If your in minnesota, please lift your garage doors, so I can find a NICE one!

Here are my two personnal junkyard dogs. They've both been there for over 15 years and according to the owner of the junkyard, nobody touched them before me. This junkyard has hundreds of cars from the 50's and 60's... It's quite a site to visit...

Yes, they have a black center cap...rears are open for the hub, and rears have a red center disk. I think they are still available from Ford for big bucks, and JC Whitney sells them too for like $50 each....Might be a good junkyard item.

I think the newer silver/chrome plated center caps from the 80-90's Ford pickup and Broncos might work,but would look strange.

while driving around this weekend in the boonies of missouri, i saw these from the interstate. i thought they might be broncos, but the distance proved me wrong. once i got to field, all i could see was scouts. these are only like 5 of them, the guy had seriously 5 more behind his house and in his garage. i know they are not broncos, but still worth the post i think.
