New guy and broncoless
Hi all,
Brett here and I hail from Longmont. I've been without a bronco for the last 9 years and regret it every day. I'm 47 and have owned an several EB's beginning when I was 18. I've built up some of them, learned on them all and have passed the passion on to my son who is building/tweaking a 66 in Arizona. I was a member of the Bronco registry of Colorado back in the day,,, Anybody remember Coby and the black cloud? The big Divorce 9 years ago made it mandatory that I sell the last bronco I had which really hurt. I'm getting back on my feet, remarried to a wife that loves bronco's as much as I do and now just need to get some time, space and money to get re-acquainted with another EB. I will have one within the year!!!!
Anyway, though I am without an EB, I have continued to follow the various EB related forums and manufactures websites since then as well as looking weekly in craigslist, Sadistic I know...
I look forward to living vicariously through you all until I can get back behind the wheel of an EB !
Thanks Brett

Re: New guy and broncoless
Hi There! Really happy you found the Club. This is a great resource for your Bronco search. I follow the action in Utah and have seen a couple that should have went to guys in our club. You can also ask a local club member to check out possible trucks to save you some time and frustration. That is great you found a wife who appreciates Broncos - now we just need to find you a Bronco.
A Big Warm Welcome To The Group!

Welcome welcome! I believe Coby is on this forum. He's the photographer dude right? Or maybe that is another one.

Re: New guy and broncoless
Thanks for the welcome's guys,, though I'd love to, I just can't swing a Bronco just yet. I need to clear up some room and organize some finances before I pull the trigger again. I will have one before the year is out though. I'm getting close:) I am one of those guys that gets very involved in his hobbies so I want to be prepped and ready so when I do get the one that is out there with my name on it, I'll be ready to dive in with both feet. Being the sadistic guy that I am, in March, I'll be heading to the Arizona Bronco Stampede with my son. That could prove to be interesting to say the least. LOL

Re: New guy and broncoless
Have you been to a large Bronco Stampede before or is this your first one? We are trying to plan ours here in Colorado and would love some insights.

Re: New guy and broncoless
Welcome...
Bronco will come soon :). Gregg is down in Longmont and there are few of us a little farther north that I'm sure will help out with anything. With that being said...when the trail rides come, I bet we can find some empty seats :)!
Can't wait to see pics from the Stampede.

Re: New guy and broncoless
Welcome! Glad you found us! I hope the pieces fall into place for you quickly so you can get a bronco again and start wrenching!

Re: New guy and broncoless
Hey Broncoless. I'm in Longmont too and man its good to have another bronco guy here. I just got mine but its still in Denver at some airplane fixer upper guys (--ha ha-- just jokes 777mech) house. We ("we" as in "Shawn hand me that wrench" we) are fixing her up so I and the young family can cruise around. We otta meet for some and shoot it. There are some firestone/erie guys too. Anyhow, drop me a line sometime. Later, Shawn "Gregg"
