Uncle Ted's first Bronco article

[Mac2Night]

Well last night while working on the "honey do list" (switching summer clothes and fall/winter out) I ran across several boxes of my 4x4 magazine collection.

There on the top was the FIRST truck magazine I ever bought (Four Wheeler, August 1980) which featured Ted Nugent's '72, '75 and '79 Broncos. This article and my love of great 70's classic rock changed my life forever. Soon after buying this issue in 1980 my father helped me find my first EB. Since many of you have never seen this great article, I have scanned it and you may view it here at my photo gallery(cover and pages 1-5). I swear I am becoming a contributor SOON!

Hope you all enjoy it!

YOU DON'T HAPPEN TO HAVE ANY 95' 96' ISSUES DO YA? I am looking for a article titled "flying Bronco" should be a cover....

I have EVERY issue of Four Wheeler, Off Road and 4Wheel and Off Road from 1983 - 2000 practically (I am missing a few issue due to college roommate mishaps in the crapper and my wife tossing them in recycling). What does the bronco look like on this mag you are looking for and what magazine is it?

it was actually in two of the 3 mentioned, i would like to say it was mossy oak break up "camo clad" at the time, but it could of looked like a zeabra also....one of those two....I also think it orig had a blower on it as well...I own the bronco now and would like a scan of the article, and find out more about it...I think it was built by Sonni Honneger.....Any help would be appreciated!!!
