Northwest Bronco Round up, Florence, OR.
This is the 7th year we've met up in August. Registered Bronco 200+. Dunes for miles,trails thru the bushes. Always cool,some rain and mist.
Jesse Honeyman campground is owned by Broncos. Lots of friends and good times.
We do a can drive for the food bank and they receive more than 4,000lbs of food.
Aug 16-18, but most are there much longer.

The Sponsors that donate to us are great. The raffle makes a lot of smiles.
I pull out Wednesday and it's only a 4 hour drive.

Nice looking set up you got there. I was thinking about selling the fifth wheel and going back to a slide in camper. Have fun and safe travels. Ken

Not to hijack but...

Your broncos awesome btw....

The brush guard you have is very similar to mine. It was chrome at one time, but the PO painted it red. Either way I love these old school looking brush guards and want to keep mine. My question is can I get a new chrome one that style? Internet search has left me dry, it’s like they don’t get made anymore. If I have to use my old one, is that something that can be rechromed? I know nothing about it...but have heard of things being “rexhromed”....looking for any infornfrom anyone...

Rechroming is very expensive. You might want to check out getting it powdercoated. There are some colors that look like chrome. Ken

The old school look is sweet. Imo I would spend the bucks and chrome it. You won't be sorry.

Mine was built by the original owner, it's all stainless steel. I had some LED lights on it but returned to my KC's,old school.

Sure does Stan,that extra gear makes a lot of difference. Ditched the duals and put new headers and 2 into 1 exhaust. I'm like a kid with a new Hot Rod.
