u13FL732193 alive and well in TX

Bobby, do you have any pictures of that one? There was a young couple last year at SC that drove an early 66 up from Texas. I didn't write down the VIN but it was an August build.

Maybe my 'Buttercup' isn't really that early, but it is the earliest one in my stable. I may have already posted it here, but if so, forgive me. It does indeed still have the original windshield and I will try to post pictures of the carlite codes. It is U13FL735752.

I love Buttercup! I have thought a few times about asking if you still had it. I am interested in seeing that Carlite code.

Thanks guys and girls! Terry, it's pretty rare when a Bronco leaves here with a new owner!;D

That metal top was bittersweet. It was ugly but very well made and it saved Buttercup's tub. Inside the tub is in great condition because of it.

Looking at my 66's I have this one with Carlite, date code 5L? no state code? Now that I found this one so faintly, I have to check another. Crap, can't load a pic.

Life has been a bit crazy of late but I did find a little time to wrench.
