Thanks Guys, it took a long time and a lot of work. My Dad bought this Bronco when I was a kid from the original owner. Around 1980. When I was old enough to drive, it became my first vehicle, drove it all through high school and college and decided I wanted to frame off restore it.. Finally it's done and I'm driving it again... Here's my Facebook album with some of the pictures of the project.

I bored the factory 302 .30 over, used edelbrock performer package, intake, cam, lifters, 1405 carb, ceramic coated headers, pertronix ignitor III stock look distributor. Added 4x4x2 power steering with BC broncos multi steer power steering bracket and pump kit, added front disc brake conversion, power brake kit, suspension is from JBG 1" lift coils in front, factory leaves in rear, wildhorses tach, new rear reproduction main tank, floor pans, rear lower quarters, door post, kick panels, etc, everything that is not painted I'd covered in bed liner, tires are 7:00-15 super traction power kings, repro hubcaps, bumpers, seat covers are from bronco hut, rebuilt steering column, factory 3speed with Dana 20 transfer case... I basically tried to keep it as stock as possible.. Still working on the top, it has to be painted still.. Probably used every vendor for something or another. I'm probably leaving out a lot if you need anything specific let me know..

Sorry Ranger.. Didn't mean to hijack your thread... Anybody else have a Calypso Coral Bronco?

Yes I think it was called Poppy in 66 and 67 then changed after

That is one of the best looking Bronco's I have ever seen! It's the same year as I am. Man, I need a makeover.
