Well, to be honest, I was thinking more of a Barbie Pink with a couple of Ribbons painted on it...I didn't think of hearts.

I guess I should have warned everyone to NEVER take color advice from me - I'm color blind. I can get vauge notions of colors as long as they are primary colors, but when you start changing them by adding red or greens I'm in deep trouble.

I only know my van is green because my wife and the color code says it is.

So from here on out - Rich's Bronco is whatever color Rich says it is...

The doors are definitely RED and the rest of it is FADED RED, I see NO other color possibility!

It was in bad light the day I took the pic, it had a oil pan ache ah...... my camera has a bad lens, I know I am really digging here.

But as long as you all get some entertainment off my recourse, then go ahead and enjoy any frivolous attempt to say my Bronco is pink.

Na na boo boo, it has a rear spool, front locker, 5.13 gears and Moser rear axles, is is bought and paid for so there.

LMAO all the way to SMOOR.

Bronco update

Wow all most forgot about this thread, update as follows:

Rear tank out (thanks Brian/Unk Bob) and cleaned, pick up tube filter installed and tank back in.
Camo JY seat covers installed.
Exhaust complete with well used flowmasters.
Wiring fixed now it starts and runs.
Underside wiring mess straightened out.
Soft top repair completed.
Passenger side head light wiring connector/light replaced.

New color is MUD and it wheels pretty good, still have a list of things to do.

I did not think it was that cold out, but she likes it no matter what temp out is.

That's not really "mud" IMO, just a creek crossing on my back 7, but Penny was having fun. When its over the hubs or you are pushing mud with the front diff, that mud!

Yea after I get back from "over there" and do a little bit more to it, it will be ready to go to SMORR.
