My New Favorite Bronco

[Pepper0105]

Found this beauty on Dallas Craigslist a couple weeks ago and I just can't quit looking at it. I'll definitely be using this for inspiration for my current build. Does anyone know what color that is?

dark jade metallic. I just did my 77 the exact color.

That's what I was thinking but wasn't sure

What are the stats on lift and tire size? Just gorgeous...

That's one of the colors that I'm considering for my restoration except that I'm considering a tan/mocha colored top instead of white.

Cool looking rig, but wouldn't the tires and rear wheel wells try to eat each other if you even flexed out on a curb? It must ride like a brick...?

Same color as my '75- That's a good looking rig!

Love those LUBERs

Jus' curious, how much are they asking for it?

That's the first thing I thought. First time you hit a dip in the road it looks like those tires are going to roach the fenders. Very nice looking rig and great color too.

If I remember right they were asking 35K

I was wondering the same thing. I love the look but im hoping someone with a similar set up can chime in and give some insight on fender rubbing. I don't plan on doing much if any offroading so maybe I could get by with it?

That's gorgeous. Is that a factory color? My '71 was originally a dark green and I'm wondering if this is what it was called.

It was listed as 1971 Ford Bronco. The add said Holly Green but it was for sale by a 3rd party so I'm not sure they knew what they were talking about. They didn't have hardly any other detail about it.

Nice looking rig. From the pics in the above link the tire size is 33x12.50 Nope I don't think it will work well on a Luber. The rear vertical door gaps look suspect to me. There is either a lack of curve to the quarter panel because of the striker post or the door is bowed out. All in all nice ride but not a 40K ride I don't think.

It is a factory color, have the same on my 76 and the marti-sheet shows it came with that ford color scheme......

That's what happens a few pop up on Barrett Jacksons for 40-50K and suddenly they are all worth that.... I would say 10-15K it's not a perfectly restored...I don't have anything negative to say about this bronco it looks nice...the tires are too wide the first time off the pavement will hurt those pretty fenders and then the new owner will cut them I'm sure... New wheel tire combo and that Luber will be awesome!

I was torn between dark blue and a Forrest green when I painted my bronco...I went with blue but I see this and try to picture mine green
