Been an exhausting and emotional few weeks here letting 6 broncos and a loft full of parts go. As of today I am DONE!. Tell you this. Buying is a lot more fun than selling. Like a second job. In the end I am left with 3 Broncos . So cannot complain there. Was very hard and gut wrenching to let each one go.
With that said. It makes my SE Alaskan dream a reality. We officially close on property next month. Here is a pic what a few Early Broncos and some parts have made a reality for us. Wish we had the means to keep both. Oh Well !

Congratulations, what a beautiful place. I would say the Broncos was a good investment and you still have three. Are the three featured in your garage the keepers?

Very nice congrats!!! Really have enjoyed our AK trips.
Thanks Okie. If you or any of you other Bronco addicts are on Prince of Wales
island in the coming summers. Especially up near Coffman Cove. Feel free to reach out and come visit. Door will always be open to the “ Early Bronco Peeps “

Ketchican? I think I have a picture of that from our cruise up there last year. If so The Arctic Bar is an awesome place to have a cold one.

Congrats! That's a beautiful view. Sacrificing a few Broncos to help get there was worth it. Nothing wrong with having 3 left to enjoy.

Selling my old Vette to get a nicer home in AZ was painful, but worth it, as I enjoy the Bronco more.
