Gary Lewis Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Color, I'm going to use Hugger Orange. The interior will be tan like my F100. The engine is a 300. I rebuilt it shortly after I got the truck. It had a piston that had dropped it's skirts ,to the oil pan :) Trans is a C6, which I wish it didn't have. The last pic is with the top off, which I FINALLY was able to give away !! Yay for me. I have a folding convertible top going on it permanently. Hugger Orange! That takes me back to a very good era. Janey and I got married the year that came out. And I graduated college and started my career. Anyway, should be easy to see your Bronco. And I assume the top will be black, which is a nice contrast to the orange.
