I usually don't name my vehicles, but the wife bought me a Kermit the frog to sit in the seat during the resto. So I guess I call it Kermit. ;)

I've been thinking about this for a while...Im hoping after I drive it for a while a name will come to me. I bought the bronco cause I always remember my dad's bronco and it was the first vehicle I ever drove. My corvette was named Gloria, don't know why just started calling it by that name. The other vehicles I had that I named had girl names...don't know if that will work for the bronco.

My current Bronco has not found a name yet.

My first Bronco was the Brutal Bronco.
The previous Previous Owner put dual shocks all four corners and used heavy duty shocks.
With the stiff springs it had it rode like the axles were mounted directly to the frame, any bump no matter how small was felt.
I will say it did not wallow in cornering no matter how fast.

I'm 1.8 yrs into restoring my 74 Bronco. It has so many things that I have found wrong from the POs like patch panels welded over holes in the floor pans to tools lost and rusting thru B pillar to the big rusty holes covered with seam sealer. I knew it was bad, just not HOW BAD. So, I'm kinda partial to "Rust Eze" pronounced Rusty's, in honor of the PO that must have had that name!

When I first bought my bronco, in 2016, I buddy asked...”what color is it, lipstick?”
I responded, “...merlot?” As I tried to man it up a bit, haha, and it stuck.

Mines is and always will be, "The Happy Hooligan" as it clearly states when I bought her.

Mines was named by a friend who had been "partying " just a little " the blue eyed hawk" my dad hit a telephone pole head on and in his way of fixing things he banged everything out with a sledge and put a spray paint pattern on the hood that really did look like the bronco had eyes. I wish i had a picture of that lol. Thanks for the memory with this thread i had forgotten that.
