anyone familiar with this arizona 1966 U14 with unusual graphics?

I put this on earlier but did not get much attention to the thread so I thought I would try to be a bit more definitive. according to the seller, he bought this bronco from a collector in Arizona. the bronco was in a group of cars that the Arizona owner had bought. I was hoping that someone on the forum might be familiar with the bronco. the graphics are a bit unusual to me but before I start to consider repaint options I thought it wise to search the forum for past history which might shed some light on the red and blue graphics. the bronco is mostly original except for the paint and in very good condition! any help is appreciated, and thanks in advance for comments, etc.

Did you ask Randy over at Driven 4x4 parts? He has his finger on the local Bronco scene and may know more about it.

If you haven't already ask Todd Zuercher he's very knowledgeable and lives in Phoenix Az.

Thanks - I think I replied here in another thread or maybe on a FB post that I wasn't familiar with the history of this particular truck. I have some memory of it being for sale here in AZ in the not-too-distant past but don't know its history.

I'd be curious of its DSO.

i talked to a guy in Arizona that sold the bronco to the previous owner....seller to me. he did not know the istory but had purchased the bronco as part of a bronco collection from an estate sale in Prescott Arizona. he said the vehicle had been sitting in the collection for the past 20 years?? that is about all i have been able to come up with!!! i will attempt to download a pic of the tag on the drivers sidewall...maybe with enlargement you can decipher. u14fl784660 is the vin number.

I'm a Prescott kid and pride myself on knowing all the Broncos in Prescott but I haven't lived there since the early 90s so it's very possible it snuck into a collection and I didn't know about it - particularly if it wasn't driven much.
