Early Broncos On The Move


Recommended Posts

Man does that bring back memories. My first Bronco was a blue '68, same color as the one in the photos and in about the same condition, maybe worse, actually. It was strictly a woods buggy and I had a blast with it. 289 and three on the tree. If you could approach a big enough tree at just the right angle and get a front tire against it that damn thing would walk right up the trunk!  The neighborhood kids had a dirt bike oval track complete with a couple of jumps in a field on top of the hill above where I lived. I was up there one night after dark making laps in the Bronco, jumps and all. During one lap I ran over something that wasn't there the lap before. When I came back around on the next lap I saw my gas tank in the headlights lying right it in middle of the track with a big dent! I actually made it home somehow without running out of gas. Mostly by coasting it down the hill through the woods and then firing it up just long enough to drive down the street and into the yard. ?
