Re: COS CB
We pretty much cover the entire state. Obviously the majority of trucks are in the Denver area. But, as you have noted, there are a fair amount of them in Colorado Springs as well.
Do you work in Colorado Springs? Maybe we can get a Bronco lunch together one of these days.

Re: COS CB
I know of at least 3 CB in the Falcon/Peyton area. My brother just met a gentleman from Calhan that had a red 71/72. Also for someone that needs a project Bronco, there is a house across from the Falcon Camground on HWY 24 that has 2 CB outside. One looks like someone was trying or tried to convert to a camper. My husband and I are members of the Mile High Fiero Club and the Pikes Peak Corvair Club.

Re: COS CB
BTW, there is a professional photographer, Mark Cafiero, in the Denver area that has a 76 Bronco. I might have to contact him for a nice group pic. I do think if you get the word out, CB enthusiasts in COS and surrounding areas will probably meet up. Rock Bottom Brewery on Powers is a good staging area since there's a car show in the summer. If you have some business cards, I would pass them out to my CB people.

Re: COS CB
Mark actually ran a Facebook page for us for a bit and was extremely helpful in doing so. Haven't seen him around in a bit so it would be nice to hear from him again.
We typically conduct a monthly breakfast to get as many people together as possible. Just a few weeks ago we had breakfast in Woodland Park with around 13 or so Broncos and about twice as many people attending.
As the weather warms, we'll be planning outings to the mountains as well as days where we spend more time with wrenches in our hands than shifters and steering wheels.

Re: COS CB
First, welcome! You have stumbled upon what is probably the most active EB club in CO! As AkaFC mentioned, there are monthly breakfasts along the front range, as well as wrench fests where a plea for help can usually drum up a few extra hands, especially if you offer good food and beverages! I have never been a part of a club whose members are so willing to lend a hand and expect nothing in return other than "pay it forward". I moved from the Falcon area about 1.5yrs ago and there are 3 members out there with many other folks owning EB's.
There's a fella who lives on the NE corner of Falcon hwy and Falcon Grassy Heights who had a corral full of EB's, but the one time I stopped by, no one was home.
The guy you say is selling those EB's, is he the house just NE of the tach shop where they hold equipment auctions? That would be directly across from the old gas station. That guy has had some neat stuff for sale in the past, but I never did see an EB.

Re: COS CB
Welcome CORed77.
You have indeed found the place to be in CO for EB enthusiasts.
So, can we see some pics of your awesome rig ?

Re: COS CB
The guy that has 2 Broncos for sale on 24, name is Rich. Really nice older gentleman.
Not sure if he still has it, but he owned a near mint uncut, stock Bronco. Think it has original 80K miles and he's the 2nd owner. He did entertain selling at one point, but I haven't talked to him in a few years.
I haven't seen the field with broncos in Falcon? Where's it at? I can't control the addiction.
