I bought a 1984 BII new and while I like the looks of this build; I would not honor that vehicle. It was a gutless wonder and got traded 2 years later for an F250 6.9 diesel.
:unsure::unsure::unsure:

I've driven pre-turbocharged F250 Diesels and my 1989 BII, granted it was always trying to murder me, always left a smile of myrth on my face. Any Ford diesel before 1999, not so much. Maybe it was the carbed 2.8? The 2.9 was perfectly adequate, but I knew that going in. The 4.0 cured many sins.

Overcome by nostalgia all I can add is I truly miss the past. Great Job OP.

Soon approaching sci-fi levels Bronco will just make the retro look even more of a challenge.

I don't hate it, but no thanks. I have yet to see a retro theme that works. Points for not making the top white though.
I think it's fantastic, but i think if the flares were blue and the top was white we'd really be in business

Looks great!

Not finished yet though. I'd paint the top Blue to match.

Said the guy who ordered a retro styled Bronco from a brand that is capitalizing on nothing but the happy memories of previous owners of the same... :unsure: :unsure: :unsure:
Nope, retro styling had nothing to do with decision and not a previous bronco owner.

This looks sweet - blue pops. This would look even better with blue flares and rockers with a white top. Excellent job love it!

Looks sweet. What’s the wheel-tire combo?
