These are not really of anyone famous but the pics are pretty rare. These guys used to race Broncos in sand drags all over the southeast. The Bronco was named the Freight Train because it was built from pieces of a Bronco hit by a train. Apparently they were pretty competitive back in the day.

In this shot you can see a street driven version of the Freight Train along with the racer. The panel painted Bronco belonged to the shop owners brother.

Fantastic shot of the Bronco, Wes. That's a very rare image of the Stove with Loomis/Wright.

Checked out the various photos on that guy's site. I'm guessing he did the original K Bar S shots in his gallery too? I'd love to have copies of his stuff but I don't like his prices :-(.

Is that from Jay Moores' site? He was was friends with John and Hal and also was in charge of the radio's on the Thunder racing team starting in 82. He has a ton of race bronco photo's. He is a very nice guy and I bet with a couple dollar you can buy more pix of the Stroppe bronco's.

Yes, it was from Jay Moore's site. Ken told me about him soon after I saw the site. Looks like tons of cool shots there.

Wouldn't you love to see what he has that isn't posted? He told me he had a bunch that were still in Neg form.
