Thanks man. Actually, a member on here knows someone at the Long Beach city yard who might be able to pull the equipment number on these Broncos and see what files are available if any. Excited to hear! Will report back. Meanwhile here's a pic of the 74.

I think a die cast is in order too

Wicked cool stuff

That's a really cool one to bring back Andrew! The hand lettering on the side of a Bronco awesome anyway!! LOL... So it had the double Baja bar, wide steelies, Commandos, double shocks, steering wheel and what else? It looks like it had manual steering, which would have been a workout with 10" of tire in the sand!.., no bumper braces.. transmission a manual too?

You gotta have the red revolving light back on top too!..I'll be watching this one!

P.S.. I see bumper braces in the old photo, but not in the fresh photo when found... cut off clean I guess..

Yeah, I think the braces likely were pulled off with bumper replacment at some point. According to the article on it in the paper from when they were new, there's some steering mod - and I've seen referenced a manual box internal upgrade for the early Race Broncos...so it may have had that done. The Bronco was built right around the same time as the 69 mexican 1000 race.
