Stroppe at first resisted the idea of building a tube-chassis vehicle with Bronco skins because it wouldn't be a true Bronco. Jones and Russell would eventually move Big Oly from Russell's garage to Bill Stroppe's shop, and Stroppe eventually accepted the idea. It won the Baja 1000 in 1971 and 1972. "</strong><br /><br />Bill Stroppe was a race car fabricator for Nascar if I recall correctly, and at a christmas party goaded Parnelli into a challenge to drive in the Baja 1000. Parnelli was known for Indy car driving, but proved exceptional at Baja racing... so great that he not only won the race, he beat all the motorcycles too! <br /><br />Marshall Madruga was inspired by the Olympia Beer sponsored Bronco, and had several vintage Broncos from huigh school until his Class 8 off roader, but went all the way to insane with this Trophy Truck. <br /><br />Olympia Beer isn't familiar to many of you I think, but it was one of the more popular beers in the 70's that has disappeared from our cultural awareness, like Strohs, Schlitz, and others. Olympia Beer was on screen with Clint Eastwood a lot though, and if you watch Clint's 1970's and 80's movies like "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot". If you are ever in Olympia Washington, capital city of Washington state but a very small city now, stop by the brewery. It's a cool experience and good tour. Olympia is not only a state capital, and a beer, but also the city that the USS Olympia fast attack nuclear submarine was named for... and that makes it the only US Navy vessel that shares the name of a alcoholic beverage. I was crew from 1991 to 1995 on that sub... cool experience, but not one I would repeat. <br /><br />This is the 2nd incredible vehicle I've found and featured here that was built to replicate/honor/pay homage to a Parnelli Jones race vehicle, the other was the Boss 302 Mustang that Les built exactly to the specs of the original <a href="http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/68-ford-transporter-aint-that-cool-i.html">http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/68-ford-transporter-aint-that-cool-i.html</a> </div>

(didn't sell) <br /><br />The 1949 Triumph Trophy TR5 was featured on the beloved sitcom “Happy Days.” Even without the Fonz connection, the bike would have a famous pedigree since it was owned by stuntman, racer and Triumph dealer Bud Ekins — a guy even cooler than Fonzie himself. He’s best known for dyeing his hair blonde and performing the stunts that studios wouldn’t allow his friend Steve McQueen to do, including the fence jump at the end of The Great Escape and some of the driving in Bullit<br /><br />When Happy Days needed an authentic bike for Fonzie, Ekins obliged by removing the bike’s front fender, spray-painting the gas tank silver and replacing the handlebars.<br /><br />Henry Winkler, who played the Fonz, couldn’t ride a motorcycle. Winkler told Emmy TV Legends that he rammed the bike into a sound truck the first time he tried to ride it. From that day on, the crew pulled him and the motorcycle on a board.<br /><br />The bike is in need of a lot of repairs. The speedometer is broken, it's rusted and hasn’t run since the 1970s, according to the New York Times. Despite the bike’s condition, it was expected to fetch between $60,000 and $80,000.<br /><iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/gMxkMy9JvXI?feature=player_embedded" width="640"></iframe><br /><a href="http://www.wired.com/autopia/2011/10/ayy-fonzies-bike-is-for-sale/">http://www.wired.com/autopia/2011/10/ayy-fonzies-bike-is-for-sale/</a><br /><a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/celebritology/post/fonzies-happy-days-motorcycle-up-for-sale-photo/2011/10/11/gIQAWOiFcL_blog.html">http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/celebritology/post/fonzies-happy-days-motorcycle-up-for-sale-photo/2011/10/11/gIQAWOiFcL_blog.html</a><br /><br /><object height="268" id="otvPlayer" width="400"><param name="movie" value="http://cdn.abclocal.go.com/static/flash/embeddedPlayer/swf/otvEmLoader.swf?version=&station=kabc§ion=&mediaId=8429329&cdnRoot=http://cdn.abclocal.go.com&webRoot=http://abclocal.go.com&configPath=/util/&site=" ></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="allowNetworking" value="all"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed id="otvPlayer" width="400" height="268" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allownetworking="all" allowfullscreen="true" src="http://cdn.abclocal.go.com/static/flash/embeddedPlayer/swf/otvEmLoader.swf?version=&station=kabc§ion=&mediaId=8429329&cdnRoot=http://cdn.abclocal.go.com&webRoot=http://abclocal.go.com&configPath=/util/&site="></embed></object><br /><br />also up for auction are James Garner's former Oldsmobile Racer (didn't sell) , Fast and the Furious '94 Toyota Supra(sold for $21,000), and Tom Cruise's futuristic Lexus (sold at $101,000) from the "Minority Report", though the winning bidder can't actually take it on the road. <a href="http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/car_tips&id=8429328">http://abclocal.go.com/kabc/story?section=news/car_tips&id=8429328</a><br /><br />some photos from <a href="http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/WService=wslive_pub/pubweb/publicSite.r">http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/public.sh/WService=wslive_pub/pubweb/publicSite.r</a><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRz7gCAn6hqrkenciAOc7Fcq9X8Q8LyTrDbFJvMPHcOzQMciAjKodHUiQIKjd7syLZ7Gy1HDndu0Yr-9_fCCFzxdB2-v9y9IhDKJ31HW95yRyrWV3p0QEYscz4oZH-9Czd8WcBibeVCJn1/s1600/wer.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRz7gCAn6hqrkenciAOc7Fcq9X8Q8LyTrDbFJvMPHcOzQMciAjKodHUiQIKjd7syLZ7Gy1HDndu0Yr-9_fCCFzxdB2-v9y9IhDKJ31HW95yRyrWV3p0QEYscz4oZH-9Czd8WcBibeVCJn1/s640/wer.bmp" width="596" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHRystodXsDkA1xUH8lMMzx6XC55wtXok0PPmaDgvg-IwsC8HXg3n2EH73nsjG_3RHMTRbMbnlXyvzQP07A6DNkl9q7QV-bDGtMVc_JZM6vTFHj5pFfrW8PxqVKlVu1DxQO-wUInaR1iDU/s1600/ergbgt.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="296" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHRystodXsDkA1xUH8lMMzx6XC55wtXok0PPmaDgvg-IwsC8HXg3n2EH73nsjG_3RHMTRbMbnlXyvzQP07A6DNkl9q7QV-bDGtMVc_JZM6vTFHj5pFfrW8PxqVKlVu1DxQO-wUInaR1iDU/s640/ergbgt.bmp" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQk_c6kUIyKpLpidJ87Mhi-eFtkn2K5zRU7O8as0lgmffiS_Ze3uJRwrMICfkTlRyZCrHNlbTUI7B7hZmPHw-lAiz_H2OJ_5ttlhV59MNpZmP68o8bt4GpYMjTEiKp1BWWHLizDjIillpa/s1600/asdfdg.bmp" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="312" nda="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQk_c6kUIyKpLpidJ87Mhi-eFtkn2K5zRU7O8as0lgmffiS_Ze3uJRwrMICfkTlRyZCrHNlbTUI7B7hZmPHw-lAiz_H2OJ_5ttlhV59MNpZmP68o8bt4GpYMjTEiKp1BWWHLizDjIillpa/s640/asdfdg.bmp" width="640" /></a></div></div>
