Both of your Broncos are nice. They make a super tough truck with big tires (especially being the only fullsize soid axles) and are proud and handsome when more mild. Very classy I think. Here's a couple more:

I sure like the round headlight stle better in 78 than the 79 rect style, I used aftermarket HID's in mine but was still rect, nicer though.
One last pic, man I am missing it now, but wanted the GM back.

I always figured,since way back,these Broncos would be destined for high collectibility. First of all,they look nice,strong and bold. But,the only made them two years,they are the first full size,the last of the solid axle,and the last of the Ford truck body design that ran from '67(in my mind). Some will say '73,but I don't see any big change there. In '80 Ford stepped into the modern age with styling. After all,it was the 80s!!! :lol: GM did with a new front end,but it was still the same overall truck since '73. I feel GM went modern then,just more gradual since it was so much earlier. Ford kept the overall outline of the late-60s trucks (that wasn't all that different from the 61-66s) till '80. Really,ever since Ford bodies went square in '58 they made gradual transitions and kinda kept a similar shape through the years.
BTW,I always liked the 58-60s.

I dont have any action pics on this PC other then my son the first time he got to drive my crawler at Pismo when he was 14 years old. No Fear as you can see.

The pics of both rigs on the trailer behind my Dodge are an the way to the Rubicon trail where we typically wheel them. I wil move some trail pics on this pc and post them later.

Cool thread, nice to look at everyones other rigs.

Very nice. They look like really well built rigs. I always liked the "Jeep sized" vehicles and wished GM had made one. I often looked at my 69-72 Blazers and Jimmys over the years and contemplated shrinking one down. It's funny,these days you see things like that. Back then it was seen as far fetched. The other alternative was just as you did...built tuff with Chevy stuff.

That is a sweet old Ford, I preety much like anything old, not a total Gm freak, had all makes a time or 2, but the thing is cool is cool who ever makes it. It is all about the build, works or doesn't, that one does in a lot of ways.:mm:

Here's my old Dodge Power Wagon with my son standing next to it. Sorry the picture isnt that vintage, maybe 10 or 12 years ago?

Nice! Is that a '70 or '71? That's an old picture,older than many here. The "vintage" part is the age of the trucks...today,yesterday,10 years ago,when brand new. To me it's early-70s and earlier. Before the trend caught on as it did about everywhere

Here's my wife's daily driven 67 CJ5. It's got a V6, and is a blast to drive. The next year or 2 will see a real paint job on it.

I dont even remember the year lol. I saw it sitting for sale and I always loved those Power Wagons. Plus the thing was beastly looking. I think I only had it a few months because one of my buddies wanted it and I think I traded him or something ... Man it sucks getting old, I cant remember a thing =)

My 1956 International S-120 factory 4x4 doing what it was designed to do...hauling a nice cow elk to the processor. Truck is now owned by a close friend of mine. 350 Chevy engine and a chevy truck 4spd.

The second is my 1949 Jeep while antelope hunting in Wyoming.
