I stopped by Barnes and Noble on the way home from work today to check out the latest car magazines and noted the cover had a nice uncut '77 on it. Quickly flipped to it and read the article - recognized it was owned by someone named Bragg who lives in Alabama....hmmmm......did Dennis get a new rig?

I kept reading and learned this is Dennis' dad's rig! Really neat-looking truck and the article is well-written too. I usually check the writing to see if they mess anything up with the history and only noted one error in this one (200 six intro date) - otherwise the author did a great job - very well-written!

Congrats to @fordfan and his Dad!

Todd Z.

Love those wheels! I recognize them as being a Ford product (I think) but can't place them.

I think those are hubcaps? My synapses can’t quite connect the dots but I know them too!

Those are original Ford hubcaps and some '77 Broncos came with this hubcap. Dad's '77 came with them and it's listed on the window sticker as 'New Mag-style wheel covers'.

Thanks Todd and crew! Dad is pretty stoked about the magazine spread. Dan is a good writer and is very knowledgeable about a lot of automobilia and equipment. The Vintage Truck Magazine is a very well done publication too!

Yes, it is. I've enjoyed looking at/reading it for many years. We've had some other friends/CB members' rigs featured in there as well over the years. It's a small independent publication and I like to support them.

Ordered online and received shipping notification this past Monday. No bookstores in this neck of the woods, lol. Congrats Jackie, and this incredible survivor Bronco deserves a centerfold! More proof the addiction is hereditary😂

Just arrived in the mail….but no thumbnail pic on the cover🤔. Nice write up and photos.
