Hopefully the below link will work! This is the hard work of the Bernie Kiser and his boys with mad skills doing the frame off resto to the body and chassis. Not back home yet but when it is I will add some more pix of the finished work then the progress of the motor install, interior and all the other details to finish this ride over the next year ;D

Link works fine. Awesome work and really nice color. That's going to turn out great knowing the work the Kiser's can do. Can't wait to see it finished. Are you keeping everything stock? Engine too?? ;D

Brawnko · Jan 24, 2011

Kinda stock with minor mods that can always be changed back. Will have aftermarket intake, carb and air cleaner but I will keep the stock original stuff if someone were to make it perfect stock. Will have headers and will have aftermarket steering wheel. Moved shifter from column to floor. Other than that it will be back to original including original color, carpet and interior. Used OEM rear corners and door posts.
Let me know if you know of any old school slot wheels!

what size slots do you want? i have some factory ford ones.

Your bronco looks great! I think I met you on Saturday at MEB. (This is Deborah) I hope I get to see your Bronco in person at one of the MEB events.

The Kiser krew really outdid themselves on this one. Certainly a lot of work went into that one. Final product is fantastic. Interesting body mounts-looks cool and functional. Nice job BK

Brawnko · Jan 24, 2011

Yep, that is me! Be sure you guys come to the Roundup at the Cove Campground in Gore, VA June23-25! For more info go to www.earlybroncos.com You will get some great ideas from 100 broncos and their owners! And don't forget to join MEB!! ;D

ghettoct · Jan 24, 2011

My husband and I will be going to the Carlisle in June. Not sure if we'll be able to bring the bronco or not. Still working on a few things before we can drive it. Not sure if we'll be able to go to Gore though b/c my husband works on that Fri and Sun for 24 hours. We might try to drive up on Saturday and drive back the same day (not sure).

It was very nice meeting you on Saturday. Thanks for letting me eat lunch with you two. That room was a bit daunting since everyone already seemed to have a table to sit at. ;D

Brawnko · Jan 24, 2011

Yeah, bronco folks come it herds and many people know each other from over the years but I hope by the end you made some new bronco friends! It was nice meeting you too.

Notice the floor pans, Bernie had to make the upper part of the front floor pans because the ones we got didn't go all the way up...but they look great!
He also fabbed the floor shifter box, notice how nice and tucked in it is!

Thanks again to Bernie, Danny and Kevin for all their hard work bringing this pony back to life!! ;D

Broncitis · Feb 13, 2011

Sweet! Nice work as always from Bernie and the boys!

Will you have enough time between the end of tax season and the Roundup to get it ready to debut?

Brawnko · Feb 13, 2011

2012 Roundup realistaclly but am moving forward as time and money allow! All the little things that add up to alot!

sprdv1 · Feb 14, 2011

Very nice!

Rox Crusher · Feb 14, 2011

man that thing is really nice

fordfan · Feb 14, 2011

Medium jade poly - a '77 - '78 color only. Looks great especially in the Ranger package. Good looking Bronco! Wondering why the stripes were painted on instead of applied? However, really nice - paint is probably better than the vinyl. Thanks for sharing..

Pearlcoat · Feb 14, 2011

Wow BK, this is SWEET!! Its so great to see a stock bronco brought back to life, especially as nicely as this one. You must be feeling like a kid at Christmas.

Being a fortunate receipient of a "Kiser" build myself I have a pretty good idea of how much fun you're going to have with that rig once its on the street. You will still be getting compliments on it years from now. Bernie, Danny and Kevin have as good of fabrication, body work and paint skills as anyone is this bronco business.

Enjoy it!!

Brawnko · Feb 14, 2011

I think it is actually called Light Jade and that was the original color. Even found the build sheet behind the dash. I think Bernie wanted the challenge of painting the strips and really did it before I thought we made that final decision but it is all good. The orange strip is a bit wider that the original Ranger decal but overall it is pretty close only going by pictures! Will be interesting to get it next to an original Ranger with decals and compare. I actually like the painted on smooth finish! Smooooth!

Roadburner · Feb 14, 2011

Thanks for the kudos. When we delivered Brian's Bronco I told him it was a nice driver, not a show Bronco. I guess he didn't understand, being he's showing off all the pics.

If we had a real shop to work out of and did this full time, we could be dangerous. Next in is Danny's full size for some paint touch up, 4" lift, and 33's. Then a 65 GTO we need to paint by spring, and after that ???

fordfan · Feb 14, 2011

Light Jade is a really light, pale green. See www.autocolorlibrary.com for names and color chips. Your color is either called jade poly or medium jade poly depending on the brand of paint you use ie PPG, DuPont, etc. I like the smooth graphics as well.
