I was lucky enough to grow up in Panama, my pop purchased a new 72 sport eb and shipped it down, it became my high school graduation present/adventure capsule in 1982. Spent years in the local offroad club on jungle trips and racing in local 4x4 rodeos, have greaat memories. Shipped her back to the states and she got me thru college in Texas and Tallahassee, sold her to a dealer in 1988. Poor thing was in rough shape...wish I had her back now....

Recently found some photos of the old truck, thought some on the forum might be interested.......I have a 76 sport now...maybe my boy will get her......

Oh, and if your wondering, I smoked all challengers, mostly jeeps, gotta love the distributor on top of the engine and the low gear ratio!!! Got the ribbons to prove it....

Good shots.

I'm sure better times and the greatest memories

Reminds me of why I got into broncos doing things like that with my buddies.

Great Pics! Good memories I'm sure! I noticed that in the first group of pics that the Bronco is shod with the rare 16" wheels and maybe some Gran Prix grips!

Great pics, that's what its all about, good friends, a good ride and just hanging out. Love those old school tires, in fact I liked them so much I bought a set to run a BII I use to knock around in
