Interesting Orange Bronco sighting at the body shop today.

[userdude]

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?

Just goes to show, good taste and good sense stop at the Sabine when traveling east... lol

Yous can have your sports teams. I'll take the Orange Creamsicle Cocktail for the win Alex.....

If Ford would ever get their heads straight and offer a Calypso Coral Heritage 2dr my Eruption Green would be gone in a heartbeat. Well....two year heartbeat that it would take to fulfill a 2dr order.

Well, I guess each to their own...but those tail lights are hideous.

I was just thinking the same thing

Cool idea but man, are those lights small! Definitely post a finished product because that's allot of real estate their going to fill in and make it look like it belongs. Hoping they plan on at least LED bulbs!

I doubt it, he is going for a retro look. Not all of us are hung up on LEDs, LEDs go out and are a PIA to fix or you replace the entire panel for hundreds of dollars. I'm good with LED headlights, but kudos to Ford for a minimalist use of LEDs on the base Bronco.

Was talking about a standard LED replacement bulb for visibility using the old school housing, not fully rewiring it but lo and behold there's full LED kits for the EBs:

Crimson.. Only color worse than orange

 

[Portagebay]

This is how you do orange.

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

Dodge did very well bringing back their impact colors:

Plum Crazy Purple (aka PCP)
Hemi Orange
Detonator Yellow
B5 Blue
Furious Fuscia
Sublime Green

When I bought my first Challenger in 2008 I test drove a Furious Fuscia RT with 6-speed, chrome 5 stars that looked like Cragar SS wheels with white stripes and white interior. That car was a total head turnover despite me not wanting a “pink” car. I ended up buying a black 6-speed instead. Later I would get a sublime green.

People buying modern retros love this stuff. Can’t believe Ford hasn’t capitalized yet.

Big part of it is we no longer have access to the drugs they did back then. BTW you forgot pink panther!

You don't know the right people....


full disclosure..... Wife is a sentencing specialist (one of only 4 for the state) I hear all the good stories.

 

[VoltageDrop]

The taillights are TBD but that color is fire! I've always liked the orange/black EB's so my 69 is likely to get a not-yellow orange and I have nooo love for steers or volunteers! I mean, would you just look at it?!

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.

No such thing as a yellow 6G Bronco. DEAL WITH IT!!! Lol. That said was this in the Northwest area? Saw one just like this last summer at the Northwest Bronco Roundup.

Proportionately absurd. Also wondering if those are big enough to be DOT legal. on a modern rig. Interested to see if the finish product will look less silly size wise.
