Military Bronco Registry??

[mebco09]

Is there someone on here that is maintaining a registry on these?

Just curious. I own one, my Dad owns another, and I think I have found another. Wanted to verify without getting a Marti, the DSO is different than mine, but the Seller claims it's military.

If there's not a registry for them there should be!

I thought that they were all DSO 83. But DSO is tricky, because Ford used the same TLA for two very different functions. The 2 digit DSO, or “District Sales Office” relates to the geographic sales region. The 4 digit DSO, or “Domestic Special Order” relates to the specific factory deviations from RPO features. The Shelby GT 500 DSO paperwork is very comprehensive. I haven’t seen anything for the 83-xxxx government DSO paperwork. And yes, they put both codes on the warranty plate in the "DSO" field. Someone at Ford was being very clever back in the late 60's.

What is the DSO on the one you are looking at? Mine is 83-0105.

Goodmorning! Recently have been compiling info into my 1967 military bronco folder. Looking for owners, state location, vin tag info, what service branch and Marti reports if you have them. Please post here or send email/Marti report to my email at timhulick@aol.com. Many thanks and will keep all posted on the number of rigs discovered. Thanks, Tim

Might be a good idea to capture the Nomenclature Plate info. I know from certain clues (like paint color) that mine is an Air Force Bronco, but without the nomenclature plate...I might not be able to prove it.

Ah yes I agree! Thanks for pointing that out.
