I'm once again working with Carlisle Events to coordinate the Bronco 60th Anniversary festure at the Carlisle Ford Nationals, much like I did for the 40th, 50th and Stroppe Reunion in 2021.
This year's event is shaping up to be bigger than ever!
Check out my post in the vendor section for info on Bronco 60th Anniversary event merch, grille badges, decals, etc.
For those of you who have never been there before, the Carlisle Ford Nationals is the largest Ford show in the world with over 3,500 vehicles on the show field, thousands of vendors in the swap meet / flea market and car corral areas, Manufacturer Midway displays, and more over 100 acres and 14 miles of paved aisles covering 8100 show spaces! People from not only all over the country, but all over the world attend this show every year.
In addition to hundreds of great Broncos on the showfield, we're putting together a few different Invitational Feature displays as part of the Bronco 60th.
These include:
BRONCO TIMELINE:
I'm trying to get clean survivor or restored examples of all model years to all be displayed under a massive 40'x240' tent.
STROPPE, RACE & COMPETION:
This feature display will also be under the big tent and will consist of all Stroppe related vehicles, and Broncos from all different types of racing and competition backgrounds including some of the most famous and historic ones. If you have one of these and would be interested in a spot, let me know ASAP.
WORK & PLAY:
This feature display will be inside the large building which will be right next to the Bronco timeline and Stroppe, Race & Competion tent. This will have several different Broncos that are former or current working vehicles.
Green dots are already selected, yellow are pending, still looking for the others.

6G Campground Park Ranger

Snow plow
Anything else that would be a good fit if we have a spot.
BRONCO ROAD WARRIORS:
This was a last-minute feature display that I just added last week which will showcase three well-known Bronco owners and their extremely well traveled Broncos, all 3 together for the first time. These too will likely be under the big tent.
BRONCO EVOLUTION:
I have a couple lined up for this indoor display now, but I'm waiting to hear back from FoMoCo to see what, if any, they may be bringing from the Heritage Collection which I've requested.
Longtime CB regular and resident Bronco historian ToddZ will be there with the few remaining copies of his Bronco history book that is now sold out from the publisher. They are working on a 2nd Edition to go back to print. If you already have a copy of his book and would like to have it signed, bring it along!
Unfortunately a few of the other special guests we were hoping to have will be down racing or attending the Baja 500 which is the same weekend as the Ford Nationals, but we are still working on trying to get a couple others.
