I bought mine in primer and chose 77 Jade Poly. When I see yours I wish I had bought a Bronco with some character and spent money elsewhere.

After looking back through the green thread, I realized 'Porky' wasn't on here. It's a '77 Ranger in Medium Jade metallic or medium Jade poly.

On any vehicle other than a Bronco (or a '70 Boss Mustang!) that color would not look that great. But it's one of the very best colors for an EB in my opinion.
I normally don't like "look at me" type colors, but the first time I saw a '77 in Medium Jade I wished I'd bought one!

Some great additions above!


I have seen the color in person and there is a lot of flake in it. Im having the paint mixed up at a local shop so I wonder if they can tone it down a bit. Why don't you like the flake?

Looks out of place on Lubr. I personally think flake is on it's way out of being "cool" I already see it less and less in new cars. But it's your bronco bud. Do what you want.

I think if I could go back in time, I would paint my bronco a stock ford color.

after much "internal debate" I picked a ford original color. hope to paint the engine bay and door jams early spring.

Need to redo it all, especially the clear-coat, but I'm going with Ford Ginger Ale on the bottom, Ford White Gold on the top, and a 50/50 blend in the middle.

Original paint 69 color chart says lunar green. I call it Gumby green. I took 0000 steel wool rubbed it then rubbing compound then polish then wax. Came out really good. If I do repainted someday I will keep this color.

Hey Rick! I don't know if Jade would be strong enough to cover that Pink! JK!.....Porky is '77 color code Y Jade Glow.

Ain't happening right now, but we gonna find out some day. This was like finding a cherry on top for me. When I read the paint code as Y, I said no way!
I knew what it was, but I knew you could confirm it! This is by far my favorite color of all the Bronco's!

Thanks my friend! Hope to see you in April!

Hello,
Had a question. The Jays Wifes green Bronco, What size lift and tire is on this Bronco? Let me know. The tire size looks like 33 x 10.5 x 15 on stock 5.5 steel wheels. Is that correct?
3 inch lift?

Let me know thanks!
