With that color combo it's almost required you put a wing on it

Re: 74 Baja Race Bronco - Baja or Bust
well, it runs, it drives, its a hand full on the street for sure. Its REALLY REALLY loud.
Here are some quick glamour shots, It's the nicest it will ever look for sure - hopefully get some more photos outside here soon before we get it dirty.
Huge thanks to Mike Root (Nascar Mike) for the relentless and exceptional work he has put in on this thing. Without him I would not be going, at least nowhere near prepared as we will be. We will definitly be ready for the NORRA Mexican 1000 car show.
We have lots of little things left but its ready for its first shakedown run this weekend!
