COlor of the truck is Sahara Beige. It was used interior, exterior and underside. Wheels and top are Wimbledon white. Dash and door panels are a copy of Bronco Gray Poly.

Nicely done!!! Rare that we see one restored to original.

What about the spare tire - does it get mounted on the inside of the tailgate?

And I guess I didn't realize the manual trans was a column shift....

Looks Awesome
You did a great job and should be happy and proud of the great looking Bronco

If I had more than two hands I would give it 3 or 4 thumbs up

Broncolove, it is up for sale because that is why I built it. I really like modified broncos, so when I got this one initially that is what I thought I would do with it. It was too nice to cut up, so I decided to restore it back to stock and sell it.

I really like building these vehicles, that is where the fun is for me. Driving a stock one around town just isn't my thing. I dont want people thinking that I only do it to make money, because I can tell you a guy is not making money on these if he even considers half of the actual labor involved. I really enjoy building them. I have a 76 that I am building up for a wheeling rig that I may restore later.

Thanks everyone for the comments. This site has helped me alot on these build ups.

Thanks all for the compliments. The best part of the build was that my retired father helped me build the truck. It was great spending time with him while building it.

Here are a few outside pictures.

Thanks
