Famous Broncos: K-Bar-S

 I have neglected this blog for far too long, I am now in the process of getting parts to rebuild my Bronco and remembered that I had started this years ago and left it vacant.....


Anyway todays Bronco of the day is also somewhat famous. It was built by the guys from K-Bar-S Broncos.

K-Bar-S was founded by Hal Sealand and John Karp in the late 1970s. The name of the shop is from their last names (K for Karp S for Sealand).

It was a specialty shop and supplier of Bronco parts, located in Las Vegas, Nevada. I personally purchased parts from K-Bar-S. They closed sometime in the late 90's.







Here are a few of the many Broncos the shop built. Of course in the 1980s Ford was still supporting the Bronco and many factory parts were available over the counter....aftermarket parts though, were not as easy to get, this is where Stroppe, JAmes Duff and K-Bar-S stepped in.
