1974 Grabber Blue Ford Bronco at Mecum Auction

[MaddMax]

Hello everyone!

Longtime lurker, first time poster here at Bronco6G. I have been following the developments of the 2021 Bronco closely and I am excited to be submitting my order in the next couple of weeks hopefully for a MY21 (7/14 reservation with a couple of late availability options). I am still undecided on color and currently waffling between A51 and Velocity Blue on my 2-door Black Diamond.

Decided to check out the Kissimmee, FL Mecum Auction on TV today after the EPL matches today and they had several Broncos up for auction. The one that really caught my attention was this beautiful Grabber Blue 1974 Colorado Bronco resto-mod lifted on 35in tires and I thought I would share the pics with the forum. The winning bid was $55K.

I would have jumped on this color if it was avaible for 21 still can’t beleave they didn’t offer this color but I like cactus gray a lot so it works out I guess but man that looks good

Is it just me, or did they not swap out the spare tire on this Bronco? ?

Terrific first post!!!

All I want is Grabber Blue. Velocity Blue just doesn't do it for me. If (more likely when) I get bumped to 2022, I hope they add this color.

I went to a local dealer just for this reason yesterday because I’ll be converting my reservation with Stephen’s over the next week or 2. I was able to see most all the colors on various vehicles and I absolutely love Area51 in person on the Bronco Sport. And I didn’t care for Velocity Blue.

Here are a few pics I took:

I would have jumped at the 302, had it been offered in the '21

Funny but to me Velocity looks 10x better in these pics than that powder blue A51 and I’m usually a black or gray buyer

I just want to see one 2-door in VB, preferably Black Diamond or Outer Banks so I can see if it's too matchy with the blue stitching. Then I can put my debate to rest.

This is exactly what I hope to accomplish in 2022 with velocity blue and white top. I'll keep the fenders flares black though.

Relaunch year should've totally been recycled from first year colors.

A miss.

Village Green, Grabber Blue, and Burnt Orange would have made me happy

I agree. But they will add these later to continue the hype when it dies down as opposed to offering them year 1 when most will buy anyway.

A51 looks like crap in the Sport, looks amazing in the Big Bronco. Its the blacktop vs MIC top. The only place where the MIC really looks amazing is in the A51 IMO.
