I never never never saw one around here until i bought one and started building it, now i have seen about 8 of them, 4 red ones, a copper one, 2 blue ones and one silver, i'm going to have to find another color for mine!! But i live in the alabama country side so all of these are spread out across central alabama and are almost all restored, except one that the guy wants 1500 for parts and it's all apart!!!

I'm in san Diego.
I've seen 3 in the last week.

I've have a small collection of pics of EB sightings.
I just haven't gotten around to posting them.

I occasionally see two driving around here in Aloha but only in the warm months. Had a guy down the street a couple years ago that had one but the day I finally see him and decide to pull over and chat he was busy moving out. Bought a house across town. I think the wife was a little relieved about that, knowing I"d be over there too much talking broncos. So that's why I come on here.;D

Still haven't seen any in Chicago. I guess they only drive them on Sundays when it isn't raining or snowing.

Bummer dude. I saw one yesterday at work, one of us, GoFastCrackPipe, an awesome bronco. There are at least a dozen in my area and I'll see one every month or so.

Saw 2 in Manassas the past week. Both were ones I had not seen before. One was a nicely built red one with snoop doors and the other looked like a survivor - faded red, no top or roll bar, uncut - in pretty good shape. Looked like a father and young son riding shotgun.

I saw another one here in Tally I haven't seen before. Silver with no top. I waived like crazy but couldn't get the guys attention. I wasn't in my Bronco so he didn't even look. My wife and son said they saw a teal green one here last week but I haven't seen it yet.

One came in to the place I hang out to get a inspection sticker last week. And it's not mine!

the dude driving it said he lived in CA for a while and he moved back to WV and brought it back with him.

I seen two in your area, Rt.31 and Rt.14 North of Portillo's. Bronze with a white soft top. It has not moved in months.
Also a red one on Algonquin road east of 31 in a body shop lot.

Once you have owned them for 20 years or so you can smell them when you are driving down the street. ;D

I'm in Denver this week- I have seen a hundred lifted Jeeps, but no Broncos...

A few weeks ago back in VA where I live- I had a guy stop me and tell me about his. Apparently he knew a guy who worked for me and brought it by the shop- pretty nice, but no pics.

I am doing some house hunting in the Boulder area of CO. I have been seeing a bunch. 2 yesterday parked out on cul de sacs. I hadn't seen them before. They don't look as though they have moved too much recently. But then again, mine hasn't moved out of the garage in a year, so who am I to talk.

I see 2-3 a year it seems like here in WNC.

When I first moved here I used to see lt. blue 1/2 cabs all the time as CP&L Utility Co, (now Progress Energy) used them for checking lines, etc...

Man, if I had only thought about that when they got rid of that fleet...
