Interesting Orange Bronco sighting at the body shop today.

You describe 3/4 of PA. I love it here!!!

It is a small world, I have worked construction at that Charmin plant in the past. What a pain, pile of pre-employement paperwork you have to read and sign stating that you did not know anyone in the paper industry. Things you saw there stayed there. You couldn't talk about things you saw in the plant. I never thought at the time what was so important about toilet paper. How it goes from pulp, to a sheet, onto a roll. It was cool though watching foklifts load ginormous rolls of TP into a machine that transforms one big roll into the small rolls we use. Pretty cool stuff.

My memories are of a beautiful place.

As many others have said - I'm looking forward to seeing how his build progresses and turns out. Love those original tail lights going in and can't wait to see how that grill turns out. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to all the updates.

Ugh - you people from Austin and Knoxville with your love for all things this color.

I suppose if you're desperate to be noticed, this will help. Not for me!

During my work day I had to pick a freshly painted cab for a dump truck. I did not expect to see this when I walked in the door.

IT’S NOT YELLOW !!!!!

Well it was at one time. The owner of the shop was doing minor altercations.

…….installing 66 Bronco tail lights.

Thought it was kinda cool. It’s what I love about the Broncs platform…….ability to make each and everyone one individualized.

That's absolutely gorgeous, hoping to get mine done in a similar color, don't think I could swing getting it resprayed though, probably will have to pull all the panels off and wrap them.

This is really cool. I know it's not for everyone but in this country you still can be an individual. I found a registration from '82 for my '72 Bronco. Had my plates on my '21 BD changed to the same number. Some people don't understand but I thought it would be cool and my opinion is the only one that matters except for my wife's. I am also going to install the Deere hood sight (hood ornament) that was on my '72.

Since he is reaching back to G1 Bronco's for inspiration, could this color actually be Calypso Coral?
I'd definitely like to see a side by side comparison.

I'll try and remember to ask next time I see him. You could be right, he is big Ford guy. His address is Ford Lane.

Ford needs to bring back some of the original colors that were well liked.

My first vehicle was a '72 F100 in calypso coral. Loved the color.

This is a good example of how a good custom requires both vision and skill. They seem to have the skill part down but the vision isn't there.

It would look a lot better if that filler panel was welded to the fender instead of being an insert, but at the end of the day that lense just doesn't flow right.

I really like the powdercoated Badlands wheels with the paint.

At least they didn't paint the engine bay chevy racing orange.

My 1986 Mustang GT is painted Chevy van orange from 1982 I think. I bought it that way a long time ago irritates me to the day. It needs a repaint to Comp Orange.

Some things are just taboo in the car world. Might as well LS Swap it to justify the color.

That ain't no burnt orange, I'd say more Clemson orange. Maybe Syracuse.

 

[MadMan4BamaNATL]

Just thank God it ain’t burnt orange. Who the hell wants to drive a truck that looks like them lame Texas shorthorns!

We Bama fans don’t like no orange. Aubarn, Tenn Vols, Clemson, Texass; just gross….

But damn thats one good looking orange Bronco build! Can’t wait to see finished pics. I’d drive an orange Bronco if it weren’t for the above associations.

Also nice to see several of y’all go on about life and times in Middle PA, or what we refer to down here as North Mississippi, cause it looks and feels just like it, minus the good BBQ, but who’s keepin score, right?
