Default My new Bronco

Just thought I would share with you my new edition. This was/is a Bronco converted at Kar Kraft by Bill Stroppe for Bunkie Knudsen. The intent of the build was to show Bunkie what a performance street model of the Bronco would be like. At Kar Kraft, the truck was modified with Stroppe parts and had a 351W and automatice added. As you know, the truck never made it to production, and this prototype sat at KK until it's closing and eventually leaked out. It has remained anonymous until just a few weeks ago w/o it's provenience following it owner to owner.



Historic image from KK of the truck.

Really Neat! Striping is a bit different than in the black and white photo, too [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

I think the point was there is a difference in the stripes between the two photos ...

No disrespect intended your way either. Sorry if it came across that way. I know the picture seems to have faded somewhat over the years but maybe the original color was not so vivid of a yellow as it is currently.
