It’s so cool to find a nice Bronco II. Especially since the most of the ones you find lately are either off-road trail rigs or some run down beater. It’s very rare to find a quality Bronco II at a car show, but with the modern day enthusiast, anything is possible.
I spotted this Bronco II at the Dropt N Destroyed show in Tallmadge Ohio in October 2010. It’s one of those vehicles you really have to see in person to enjoy.
The Bronco II is owned by William Boden from La Salle, MI.
