Tough call. Raven Black, Pebble Beige, Britany Blue, Boxwood Green, I should have let the kids decide and be done with it.

I'm gonna pull a Solomon and split the difference. Boxwood green with Raven black stripes. Hope that helps.

Boxwood green. If you have a hardtop it should be white. Silver or white grill.

I'm finishing up my prep work and painting next week. The existing color is (was) the Green Bronco in the first picture and I drive it most of the year without a top. Wide range but I'm down to Pebble Beige, Raven Black (Original Color), Boxwood Green, and Britany Blue. I know it's my choice but would love your opinions. Thx!

Me personally, Raven Black (Original Color), or Britany Blue

Rats!
Well, not really "too late" since you could still paint it any color at this stage. But yeah, if you're going to this trouble you might as well also get some new clothes on it.

lol, right...

I'll vote twice. The more I look at it, the more I like your current green. Don't change it yet!

hush... lol

I vote Boxwood Green with Brittany Blue being my runner up choice.

You should have made this a poll so you could easily see how many voted for each.

Well, I wasn't smart enough to figure out how to do it! I have another week, so maybe on Monday!

Fixed it for you! (I actually had to tweak a setting behind the scenes, so it wasn't your smarts that were lacking! )

Thank you!

If you need some inspiration, just take a look at this beauty JGBronc did......the argent grill and belt-line trim really pop on the black.

I luv green and like the boxwood green. By the way, anyone know what ford color the one in my garage is? It’s a 72.

Jim did a black half-cab for his wife Sheyla too. There's a build thread around here somewhere and it's looking mighty fine these days.

What is the color code on the glovebox warranty plate?
Here's a great resource here for original colors: https://classicbroncos.com/forums/threads/master-picture-list-of-original-colors.127793/page-5
Be aware though, you often have to look at the bracketing years (so look at '71 and '73 as well as '72) in order to find the correct code AND name.
Ford changed names and sometimes codes on some colors, depending on which year model it was. Same color, different name.
