Bronco's Bronco History
As far as the history of the Denver Bronco's Bronco, details are sketchy at best. What we know:
Solely, Golden Motors Ford's Fleet Sales Manager ordered the DSO 763000 Bronco as a one-time Front Range Dealer Promo. The former owner told us, the Fleet Sales Manager had the idea and put the whole thing together with Ford. The former owner also said that the numbers ranged between 50 and 100
total produced, delivery was from December 8 1974 through December 21 1974, and all were 1975 models. Apparently, all DSO 763000 Broncos delivered to Golden Motors Ford and then redistributed to other dealers in the area. The Broncos were likely prepped for shipment to Bill Stroppe's shop to be Baja Broncos, but as the owner, Bill Stroppe abruptly stopped doing business in late 1974. Ford may
likely have been trying desperately to liquidate these vehicles. The owner also said there were a few produced all white with an orange Ranger stripe kit and a blue roof these were most likely ordered as supplies of the “Stroppe Prepped” vehicles dwindled. We also have heard the Denver Library has old microfiche newspaper ads that I plan to publish on this site soon. Again, not all of this information is verifiable. There are still no known numbers on quantities and models nor were there records kept as far as anyone can tell. I will try to verify any of the information I can. |
