Early Bronco sighting this morning .

Please excuse my driving and picture taking.

Spotted this early Bronco this morning. Although the rear fenders are cut its still super nice .


Many of them have had an automatic transmission put in them. This one was still a 3 on the tree.

And I thought I was the only person around here that knew how to shift that. LoL

I seen another one in my area and a vintage International Scout as well.

My first vehicle was a 73 Bronco with a 302 and 3 on the tree. Wish I still had that

I still have yet to drive a three on a tree. I "know" how to do it, just have never had the chance.

Wouldn't that have been a full size?

Full size didn’t happen til 78.

If anyone thinks having a manual transmission with a floor mounted shifter is a great way to prevent your vehicle from being stolen (and it is)...a "three on the tree" takes that to a whole new level!

Looks like a shade of white. Was being pursued by 12 police cars?

I remember my older brother test driving my grandpa's 1963 Ford F-100 farm truck. It had an inline 6 of some sort and three on the tree as they say. Wooden bed too.

Cool! Thanks That's sounds right.

I learned to drive on a 'three on the tree' in our '66 Dodge Coronet.

Yep, column shift is never anywhere near as pleasant to use as a floor shifter.
There were a number of Euro cars that had four on the tree back in the day. That would have to get old quickly.
