Thanks I'll add it to the list. Do you know what the original color was? It's the 140th earliest known u13 to still exist by the way. Also have 747681 on the list, it's Wimbledon White and is in Ohio.
Caribbean Turquoise. It is also from Ohio. It's been there since the 70s from what I was told. It has been in the same garage since 1986.

Thanks, I wonder if they were shipped to the same dealer or city?
I am trying to track down the 2nd owner who also lived in Dayton. I bought it from the 3rd owner based on conversations with the guy I purchased it from. Is the Marti Report still the best to get the production data? I used the Marti for data on my '93 Lightning.

It is, but it's on offered for 67' and newer broncos unfortunately.

Several ways of doing it actually. The best way that most of the old-timers prefer is to become a contributor for $12 a year and you can upload your images directly from your device to your discussion.
If you want to make sure that you were going to be able to take advantage of the site for your money, you can upload them to your “garage” or “gallery” in the link above. You can also upload them to a free online hosting website and link them here.
Or, if none of those floats your boat, you can email them to one of us with the “contributor” under their username and we’ll upload them for you.
See? Easy!🙄😉

easy peasy....

okie4570, could you please contact me at contractorservices.com or (850) 637-3689. Thank you.
In 11/20' I started this project, here's what I've got so far for the 66 u13. If you're not 100% certain that I've got your info, please contact me. If you know of someone with a 66 u13 and they're not on FB, spread the word. Most of these stats are self explanatory. Any of the broncos that I don't have a vin for, (except for u13fl732150) I have actually laid eyes on, whether in person, by pics or by someone I trust to confirm that it's a 66 u13 and not a u14 or u15 missing doors, top or had later inserts installed. Since there are still so many without a vin #, it's still possible that there may be a few duplicates, and there could also be some with a vin earlier than u13fl732150. Most of the ones that I don't have a vin for were owners that I've visited with and they just never got back with me and gave their info. Still a work in progress, and will be ever changing.

Here's a breakdown of the vins I have based on when they were produced along the 65/66 production year, apparently they didn't produce alot of u13 towards the end based on the ones that have been found. 69% of the vins I have were built in August/September 65'.

I have a 66 U13 with a VIN that is on your first 100 list. I'm looking for some direction. Can you point me to someone I could talk to on the phone? Thanks for your help.

Very impressive work, Okie! Interesting that all the roadsters were made early on and then production went to a trickle.....

I probably should have added that 732157 turned up in KS since that previous update.

Yeah they were probably thinking "these will sell like hot cakes"................. "uh these aren't selling like hot cakes".........."maybe we should put doors and soft tops on them to clear the lots"...... "maybe we should make a few more and see what happens"....... lol.

Welcome Pimou, I wondered where this bronco ended up! It's just one of two that I've seen that came with just a driver's seat. It's the 41st earliest known u13 to still exist that I've got on my list of around 700.
