This is basically what my 01 Z28 looked like, but it had Z06 wheels.

Kinda bummed I don't have any pics of my actual cars anymore.

Strangely, the one I want back the most is the 5.0

1974 Ford Bronco I was so close to having it like I wanted it but I got a wild hair and wanted something else and by the way I didn’t have any problems selling it I wish everyday I still had it probably can’t afford another one as the prices are unreal now it had the 302 and was an automatic it ran great

I know how you feel about the 74 Bronco, I had to let mine go when I got divorced in 80. 302 with a C4 auto 44s on both ends. 10 MPG 2wd or 4wd. Always thought the 12 and 10 gallon tanks were funny.

We're not talking about women here fellas... haha! (or men for the ladies on here... or anything else in between.)

I love these stories. It's good to sit down and reminisce about the good times every once in a while.

What is the one vehicle you don't have any longer that you wish you still had? Pictures only add to the story!

Edit: I realize this won't be 100% Gladiator related... but it will certainly be at least partially Gladiator related!
My 1973 CJ-5 I bought new for $3500. I had it for 15 years, two engines and two clutches, that was it. Used it for my fieldwork in grad school all over the Southwest. Give a lot to have it back. Only added wider wheels and tires, and an aluminum top, and Warn winch. This photo is the day I bought it in 1973.
