Well, the So Cal Broncos didn’t disappoint anyone with their display of Early Broncos at the April 14th Pomona Swap Meet. As you can see from the photos, they brought out a great assortment of trucks. Some had great paint jobs, while others had little paint left.  Some had major engine and suspension modifications and there were even some bone stock beauty’s. There were Bronco’s built for the street and others for the trails, but all were cool and drew huge interest from the crowds.  “I was pretty surprised by the amount of people that stopped by to take pictures and ask questions – it was fun chatting with them all day”, said So Cal Broncos, Jeff Halstensgaard. And why not? The early Ford Bronco is such unique and versatile classic vehicle and So Cal  Broncos is a great group of people. Remember, you can catch up with the group as well as other off-roaders at the Big Bear Bronco Bash XII on June 7,8 & 9, 2013  info and on their message board at Yahoo message group.
