Interesting. My '77 never had a pad either, but it has the mounting holes and factory screws. I'd think maybe someone pulled it off after it started cracking, but the top has never been off or the windshield folded down. I like how they look with out them anyway.

77 with no dash pad or mounting holes. I figure it was in the last of the run and they ran out of Dash pads.

Tito,

Those window screens look very similar to these that Kayline offered in this '66 Four Wheeler ad:

I guess Ford offered them as well as aftermarket vendors, but they may have been made by the same producer and simply restocked.

Awesome, thanks for this post, I had missed it till now. Yeah looks like Kayline was producing for Ford.

I stumbled on this thread looking for what the HD option included. Lots of cool stuff. Could someone scrounge up a pic of the firearm holder? Its seams the pics have changed over the years.

Redneck FAIL!!!!

You are telling me no one in that town had an old Ford pickup they could have used that on and put in the parade?

Its an old thread but I had to bring it back to life just for this picture. This is Turkey Texas, and I'm sure its the Bob Wills day parade. My old ford is in Turkey Texas some where. Lets just say it's an interesting little town of about 400. I lived in the next town over of Quitaque about 10 years ago.

I've got a "Eddie Bauer" sign in the lowest speaker slot, was that a package option in -74?
Other then the tag it looks just like a bronco sport with an old Warn winch and and some aftermarket bumpers, ugly old school ones, I've seen pictures here of a couple of other broncos with them on.

Check out post #91 in this thread.

It's about where the drivers side windshield bolt would be.

Yes the dash chrome is rare it was only offered on the 67 sport model, also the pleats in the door panels run sideways on the 67 sport.

I have the dash chrome on my 67, but according to the Ford build sheet it was not a Sport. Someone might have swiped a dash from one somewhere down the line...

My 69 has the bracket for the spare to be mounted on the pass side. It was called the Ranch Hand or something like that, it allowed you to have full use of your tailgate keeping the spare tire out of your way.

My dad bought a second tire bracket for my '76 (when new) and put it on the side so he could drop the tailgate for a homemade hunting dog box. Was not a stock option, but it's still there and blends pretty well.

Has anyone used a pickup model and made a mini tow truck out of it. My father was toying around with the idea years ago but it never came about.

Kinda neat to look at, but not sure what you'd tow-
