Next to the Charger and Hershel McGriff's Nova and Chevelle, Olympia sponsored also the famous Stroppe/Jones Ford Bronco. Built by Stock Car specialist Bill Stroppe (aka the "Holman Moody of the West Coast"), it was entered at the gruelsome Baja California off road race. Parnelli Jones took over the driving chores, while Bill Stroppe himself acted as navigator. Olympia Beer sponsored the whole act of what was, as vintage expert Sam Barer calls it, the "Superbird of Off-Road Racing"!
