You have to look at those 73 - 79 ford crewcabs more closely, they are rare! Everybody wants them these days, as first gen broncos and mustangs are all out of peoples budgets now sadly...
I was stationed at Lowry AFB in Denver in late 70's and they had quite a few of the blue broncos . Automatic with 302 , Dana 44 , rear locker , locking hubs and heavy duty heater package . Dual alternators , dual batteries . Thanks for sharing !
In 2005 I worked in the area around Dawson Creek. The beginning of the Alaskan Highway. As the fall season set in and the leaves fell I could see all kinds of cars and muscle cars in yards that were just sitting. One farmer had a several mopars in his yard. Great area to explore for barn finds, if they are still there.
So I recently got Hagerty insurance on my 1975 Jeep J10. It was a Father’s Day present from my wife. It ticked all my boxes old muscle, Jeep, 4x4, and a truck. I’m self taught of what I know about fixing cars. I really enjoyed this episode, I love seeing old 4x4s. (I will say I found it funny that RUclips started suggestion your channel after I went on Google looking for classic car insurance once.) Hagerty is really the best option in my opinion for classic car insurance. You can beat the price for the coverage and what a great staff. Thank you!
Favorite episode so far. FJ40's are one of my favorite offroad vehicles. They have a look like they will take you anywhere you want without a single problem.
Wow! Looking inside those Bronco's brought back some memories! My dad bought three different Bronco's; a '66, a '72, and a '76. All virtually the same except for the color. Wow! What memories!
I recently discovered this channel and have been watching these episodes on a daily basis. I am a classic car enthusiast and I would love to have a first generation Bronco. This are real cars and real people, none of that reality show drama bull crap that is on TV. Thanks for sharing these awesome videos!
I bought a '75 Bronco brand new off the showroom floor. Paid $6,000 for it, (a LOT of money in '75!) Had the Dana 44, and posi in the rear and limited slip in the front, all from the factory. Was damn hard to get that stuck, either in mud or sand! Wish I still had that truck, although living in Illinois it died a horrible cancerous death from road salt. Near the end, when you opened either door, it would drop down about half an inch! My daughters still comment about looking at a portion of the road through the floorboards if they were riding in it. In those days, as with every American 70's car, rust protection and treated metals were just a pipe dream..... Thanks for this video, brought back a lot of memories!
I owned a '75 Bronco Sport with 302, that I paid $4500 in 1980. I sold my Land Rover SWB in the Yukon and wanted a similar body style to replace it, loved the Bronco. The body had rusted badly by the late 1980's.
Not only do I love Hagerty for the insurance on my '68 GTX, but I really enjoy all their video series as well. Tom and Davin make these series great fun to watch and the videography is simply the best. Y'all need to keep those fellas around as long as you can, Hagerty! -Ed on the Ridge
I'd much rather have a 4x4 shortbed crewcab F250 than a Bronco any day, but since I'm dreaming, I'll take the GT350. lol Nice collection and I think they are in good hands. I have a feeling those rigs won't sit and go to waste.
Amazing show. I get excited to watch each episode. A Ford Bronco keeps my attention for about 5 minutes or less. That's all I watched and fast forwarded the rest.
I had a 302 three speed bronco in Kodiak, Alaska in 76. It had been pretty beat up but still got me around the island. I remember going down one day into Kodiak and on the last little hill before dropping into town the right rear axle decided it didn't want to stay in the housing. Made for a bit of a walk and some work replacing the bearing and retainer.
Who doesn’t love a good road trip. I drive my 2003 TJ, 2000 km (about 1200 miles) towing a utility trailer when we moved from Toronto, Ontario to Halifax, Nova Scotia. I thought it would be the most exhausting vehicle to drive of our four ( the others being a 2007 Civic, 2014 RAV4 and 1984 Supra) but it actually turned out to be the most enjoyable of the bunch!
I would have been grinning from ear to ear to have a chance of driving Tom's mustang, great to see so many early Broncos still surviving in the dry climate of Alaska
This cracked me up!!! Nice job with passing all those rigs at the start. I'm from Nor Cal and yes we lost a giant Sequoia tree knows as "The Tunnel" tree last year. Glad Tim got a chance to drive through it before it fell. Watching him drive the Mustang it was obvious he was having fun even though Tim is pretty soft spoken There seemed to be remnant of his teenage age years still showing on his face. I mentioned on here before that I pulled a 76 F100 out of the pine trees from my neighbors yard, but the true prize that I've not gotten them to part with is a 74 Bronco. I think it has a 302 as well but the engine is tucked away in the shed. Time will tell, I guess I just have to be patient.
are we not gonna talk about the like 6, 70s dentside crewcabs he has, those are getting damn hard to find, im looking for one to turn into a expedition rig now and am hard pressed to find one thats not a $6000 shell.
@@carltonbankz9273 You must really be on the slow side because I made that comment 4 months ago. It was about the word "like" being used out of context. It was not "like 6 trucks" as any person can see. Next time you want to start with "you must be a little on the slow side" you may want to look at the date a comment was posted.
Tom needs to come to Central S.C. just in 3 spots there are multiple 36-40 Ford, mid 60's Chevelles, Impalas 59-70, Starliners, 69-74 Grand Prix, 70-71 Big block Camaros, 340 dusters and SO SO much more!
Great vid. I owned a 69 Bronco in 1984-86. Also had a 74 Land Crusier in the early 1990's. The 74 was the first year with a four speed and the last year with a tailgate rear door. 1975's had barn doors on them. Wish like hell I had kept them both.
I'm not an import guy, but that Land Cruiser has a hell of a big front end. As I recall from seeing one in a junkyard, the bodies are pretty heavy-gauge as well. Respect.
Love fj40 cruisers. My old man put a 350chev & manual box. Late model lockers. In caged & Exoskeleton cage. Winches front & rear with a in built compreser. He used to take me/my mother & my 2 young brothers muddying. Was a mustard yellow color.
Excellent video it is amazing that in such a Northern area is such a good climate for preserving the older vehicles he has quite a hoard on the Broncos for sure , down in the lower 48 both the Broncos and the older FJs are getting harder to find in decent shape
seen one of your SUVs on the road today in Scottsdale Arizona. It had a sticker in the back window that said for people who love cars. As soon as I seen the name Haggerty on the door with the 5-speed shift pattern I had to honk and wave and give a thumbs up. Nice to see you guys so close to my home. He got off on Frank Lloyd Wright Boulevard I believe. thanks for sharing your videos and being such a great Channel. Thumbs up!!!
I live in Alaska and my stainless steel bbq grill rusts away every two years. Not all of Alaska is dry and rust free. Some part are in fact deserts by the amount of rain they receive. I have a 76 fj in 85 and it was a rust bucket. Iv always wanted another but they are just getting too expensive.
Less rusting in AK because they don't use salt on the roads except in early winter. Reason is salt doesn't work below around 20°, so they just use sand after that. And, as noted, the cold helps reduce rusting, unless you do something dumb like putting foam insulation in spaces not meant for it. Holds moisture in.
I bet the people driving the Military Vehicles you passed was thinking DAMN WAS THAT A SHELBY THAT JUST PASSED US ! LOL if they actually know what one is
Hagerty Keep the Show's Going Tell Tom I Said Hello , I met him at The Charlotte 4 Wide Drag Races quite a few years ago , LOVE the Drag Races but hanging out with Tom was better all during the day we would swap car Stories ! GREAT TIME ! ACTUALLY PURCHASED A COUPLE OF HIS BOOKS TO ADD TO THE BARN FIND COLLECTION SERIES. TO ANYONE WHO WATCHES THESE VIDEOS PURCHASE HIS BOOKS YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED
Here in Arizona I see these Broncos in peoples yards and carports all over town. I have a feeling that 10 years from now they will be tucked away in garages. Get one while you still can.
Those are some sweet ponies! haha some of em need a little work but is it really a Bronco if it doesn't? 😂 This was great! It's crazy to see the kind of old vehicles that people have sitting in their back yard.
Thanks to Mr. Kimble From Green Acres! Driving 1st. Generation Bronco's! Since FOMOCO's Were The Feature automobiles of The 1965-1970 Sitcom! 10.34 am cst. USA 1/10/19
The same in Scandinavian countries - most wanted are the vehicles called "Norr-kord" (driven in Nord) even if there is snowing heavily but no salt used - makes cars' bodies healthy.
A lot of "so's" in this conversation! :) Man, I love them old Bronco's, FJ40's and Scouts too. In 1975 I bought my first 4x4, a '63 Scout. Been looking for another but the prices are getting crazy on all three of these vehicles.
I bought my 1973 in Odessa Texas in 1978/9 and the first thing I did was put on a set of header's and a 500 cfm Holly carb. Put 300,000 miles on that little beast. Hate the day I sold it.
302 2-barrel is a pretty decent "quicker revving" alternative to the 4-barrel setup. You lose on the top-end but gain a slightly more responsive around town response.
Yeah they are getting hard to find, especially when you have them spread out all over the place. I would have to get these all organized at the same location. This is kookie talk!
Jeepers don't prefer the dana 30 over the dana(amc) 20. The 30 is a front axel the amc 20 is a rear axel. The dana 20 is a transfer case. Love your videos :) peace
I owned a '66 with the 240 straight 6. Purchased from a used car dealer off I 25 in northern Colarado near the Wyoming line. Paid $1100 (1981) traded it for a Cub Cadet in 1982 and always wished I'd never did. I lived on top of a mountain with a 20 degree grade going up. It had studded snows and went right up every time. The rings were worn and it fouled the plugs every 500 miles. I carried a spare set in a shoe box lid under the front seat so I could change 'em out wherever and clean and reuse them. Color was medium blue similar to the one above with the white top. It had a rusted out kick panel near the pedals that I patched so my feet wouldn't get wet and cold. I could stop it half way up the mountain to pick up neighbors then proceed even in glare ice. Of course it had manual locking hubs so you had to get out prior to climbing with it to engage the 4wd. I once used it to pull a neighbor's pickup. It was no slouch even with the 6 cylinder. It had a 3 speed on the column and of course the hi/lo stick on the floor. In low 1st speed I could just about knock trees over with it. What a wonderful truck it was.
Alaska has the 14th driest place in the US, with only 3.82” of annual precipitation, drier than Lake Havasu, AZ. Alaska is way bigger and more varied climate-wise than people realize.
Just bought 7 first gen Broncos up here in Fairbanks for $800, they all have a title but only one of them is actually drivable. The rest are complete but are rusty and haven’t moved in probably 30 years. Just making this comment so people know there still up here, even in 2021 during the “ vehicle shortage “ your still able to find a bunch of first gen Broncos for cheap. A kid at a gas station liked my 77(The only one that was drivable of the bunch I got) and said he’d wish he could afford it, well some guy offered me $18k for it so I got that kids attention and said he could have it for $400 as long as he didn’t sell it. I now see that kid(he’s actually 17) every other week showing me what’s he done to his bronco. The other guy at the gas station was very upset he couldn’t even buy it off the kid. I told him money don’t matter it’s about the memory’s you make, I can guarantee that kid will hold onto that bronco for a very long time. As of for me the 6 left over Broncos should be enough to make one good drivable one, I’ll probably end up using them as bargaining tools to trade for other junk.
@@devonriley110 Side-by side several of those Crews in the background were worth more than some of the first-gen Bronco's they were looking at. First Gen Bronco's saw around 13-20+ thousand produced per model year, while those Crew's are closer to 2-4k per year, of which only around 25% were 4x4's. In other words it's around 30x harder to find a factory crew 4x4 than it is a first gen Bronco.
@@devonriley110 value is determined by the amount of people looking to get their hands on whatever the object is, pre 80s crews are way harder to come by and have massive cult following

Plz show trucks so many good ones u pass
that last coral one was by far the best and needs to me moved .. btw nice of tom to let him drive the Shelby
1st Gen Broncos will always be my favorite Bronco.
i love this series !!
We love our fans!

Especially when toms haulin ass around slow moving vehicles!😂👊🏻
Damn Man, nevermind about the Broncos, lets go for more wild rides in the 'Stang!!!
But he can't even find the gears or shift them properly
Loved this show! My husband had a lot of Broncos he restored.....we have a 1966 one still in back. Thank you for this show!
WildflowerNJ1 let me know when you want to get rid of it
I’ve never seen so many crew cab 73-79 trucks in one spot!!

Very cool. One of Tom's top barn finding tips is to go searching during the fall after the leaves have fallen!

All those 73- 79 Ford crew cabs , man
My favorite show to watch. I love catching new episodes and im a Bronco man! I got a cherry 79 Custom.
Thanks for watching! Post some photos of that sweet 79 on our Facebook page.
Great father-son interaction and glad you encouraged the young man in the video. The next generation gear head in the making!
Respect to you, Tom, for taking us off the beaten paths and introducing us to these good people and their treasures!

Great show as always dont move over too motor trend on demand like roadkill✌
Absolutely no plans for that Cary. Thanks for being a fan!

Look at all them crew cabs 😍
This! Those are handsome trucks and I'm disappointed that he didn't spend any time on them whatsoever.
Lance H for real,, never seen so many in one place!!
Us and a Bus Tom and crew are definitely not fan of trucks. Always disappointed when they skip over f100s, c10s or any others
I want a 70s crew cab
Was thinking the same thing
Super awesome to find a vintage Bronco. Always great to see them drive around factory stock. Man, wish I could find one

I'm in heaven with all the crew cab fords. Miss my 78 3/4 ton 4x4 4 speed was a regular cab had a 4 in skyjacker lift with 38.5 x 14.5 super swampers.
I like the mustang it sounds great love the old broncos to
hats off to anyone that loads up an old vehicle they dragged home and then road trips the hell out of it.
I didn't think those old broncos were so rare, I've seen quite a few of those around Alaska.

The early Bronco is one of the greatest off road vehicles ever made. It is a american icon.

Hi
On the 68 Bronco on the second property with the bench seat & middle divider
I believe that one is the Bronco half cab
(Bronco / truck)
Here in Arizona I see these Broncos in peoples yards and carports all over town. I have a feeling that 10 years from now they will be tucked away in garages. Get one while you still can.
I hit the like before seeing any barn finds 😄 Was worth it just seeing and hearing that pony in pass mode
This man has a field of dreams. Tons of first-generation Broncos, and I believe even more crew cab dentside fords.
If it's original paint, that would be an original color.

What a way to start off the year with a Shelby Mustang 🙌🏻👌🏼

A lot of "so's" in this conversation! :)

I hear they are thinking of bringing the Bronco back in 2020 from what I've seen looks pretty sharp.
I think it autocorrected, i think you meant shitty
It'll probably be a 4-door resembling the explorer with about as much off-road capability. I hope I'm wrong.
Also bringing back the Supra this year

I could stop it half way up the mountain to pick up neighbors then proceed even in glare ice. Of course it had manual locking hubs so you had to get out prior to climbing with it to engage the 4wd. I once used it to pull a neighbor's pickup. It was no slouch even with the 6 cylinder. It had a 3 speed on the column and of course the hi/lo stick on the floor. In low 1st speed I could just about knock trees over with it. What a wonderful truck it was.
gave the thumbs up for the alaska pass in the ol stang, then i kept going back to give a like as i kept watching
Cool stuff, and I love that fastback. Thanks you guys doing what you do. Liked up as well. Peace my brothers.
Good video as always Tom! At 20:10, notice that the “bronco orange”/coral bronco matches the kid’s hoodie.
What an awesome collection of scrap metal.
Lots of crew cabs too!
I'da never thought of Alaska as an arid climate...
Interior and Northern Alaska is dry, other than that, it’s wet around the edges.
No part of alaska is arid, do you mean temperate?
Alaska has the 14th driest place in the US, with only 3.82” of annual precipitation, drier than Lake Havasu, AZ. Alaska is way bigger and more varied climate-wise than people realize.
When it gets really cold the moisture literally freezes out of the air and it gets super dry.
Just in the interior, the rest is salty around the edges, where your rig will rust out fast.👍☠️
Just bought 7 first gen Broncos up here in Fairbanks for $800, they all have a title but only one of them is actually drivable. The rest are complete but are rusty and haven’t moved in probably 30 years. Just making this comment so people know there still up here, even in 2021 during the “ vehicle shortage “ your still able to find a bunch of first gen Broncos for cheap. A kid at a gas station liked my 77(The only one that was drivable of the bunch I got) and said he’d wish he could afford it, well some guy offered me $18k for it so I got that kids attention and said he could have it for $400 as long as he didn’t sell it. I now see that kid(he’s actually 17) every other week showing me what’s he done to his bronco. The other guy at the gas station was very upset he couldn’t even buy it off the kid. I told him money don’t matter it’s about the memory’s you make, I can guarantee that kid will hold onto that bronco for a very long time. As of for me the 6 left over Broncos should be enough to make one good drivable one, I’ll probably end up using them as bargaining tools to trade for other junk.
All those old F-series Crews, each harder to find and probably worth more than each of those Broncos.. TOM why did you skip over them!?!
They are definitely not worth more than a first gen Bronco.
@@devonriley110 Side-by side several of those Crews in the background were worth more than some of the first-gen Bronco's they were looking at. First Gen Bronco's saw around 13-20+ thousand produced per model year, while those Crew's are closer to 2-4k per year, of which only around 25% were 4x4's. In other words it's around 30x harder to find a factory crew 4x4 than it is a first gen Bronco.
@@bumpsidetreasures Rare doesn't mean valuable.
@@devonriley110 value is determined by the amount of people looking to get their hands on whatever the object is, pre 80s crews are way harder to come by and have massive cult following
@@nathan5642 You obviously have no idea how popular the first gen Broncos are.
The Mustang is the coolest thing you are going to see in this video.
Another Jem of a video from you Tom
And they are all just out in the bush 👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸
Dang, dude knows his broncos! very cool!
