Bronco Vanity Plates #9

 

As the old saying goes, everything is available for a price. This guy probably got tired (as most classic Bronco owners do) of getting asked by people, who haven't the money anyway, if it is for sale.


From our Bronco pics that fit in multiple posts file (Bronco Babes, Broncos at the Beach, Red Broncos and Vanity Plates) is this one, SDLUP


Like many old Broncos this '66 is made from parts of multiple years...


68RKLMR....1968 Rock Climber....


Hard to read the one below, but I think it says OSBRNCO, for "Old School" Bronco maybe?



BROCO.....I think a letter is missing.



NVR STK....no offense, but anyone who claims they have never been stuck, hasn't tried.


Rat is the name of the builder or the name of the shop?

Bronco Moms

 




Happy Mother's Day to all the Bronco Mom's out there. We'll start with my own mother. Here she is behind the wheel of our family Bronco holding the brakes and keeping the rpms up while dad runs the Warn winch. My brother is sitting on the edge of the bed, picture was taken circa 1976.



We can't forget about one of the original Bronco Moms...Mrs. James Duff

Where are they now? Pt. 3 Bronco Hunter

Bronco Hunter

The Bronco Hunter could be called the first Baja Bronco, as it had many items that would end up on the Baja. Shipped to Holman & Moody-Stroppe in 1969 as a Wimbledon White U15 Wagon, it was transformed into a beast with a built motor, off-road goodies and special name tag: Bronco Hunter













The Bronco Hunter was discovered a few years back, restored to the condition it was when it left Stroppe's shop and was sold so the restorer could purchase the Boss Bronco. The restored Bronco Hunter was sold at auction in January of 2020.
