I attached it here its amazing how much the car has changed paintwise over the years as far as sponsors.

Wow. That reminds me of the bronco James Garner raced in the Baja (Mexican 1000) races. In the 60's.

See if Sam could put the pics you're talking about on his site.

Talked to my dad last night and he says it was probably a race in oregon in the 70's looking at the cage and the roof cause they redid both in the late 70's my dad says he thinks it is him in the right seat and the driver is still unknown for sure possibly Don Romer.

Yeah, but you can sure see global warming from then to now I haven't packed a jacket to Yerington in years.

Any pix of what it looks like now? I always loved the looks of that bronco. It was my inspiration for the paint on my 73.
