Re: My new Bronco
 

The truck wears its original paint. The lighting and aging of the early photo is giving it a lighter appearance. And yes, the stripe has been altered from how it was originally applied on the truck.

Interestingly, I have another photo of this truck at KK. That photo has a the same stripe as the historic photo, but has the phrase "Boss Bronco" across it.

According to Kar-Kraft employees, Bill Stroppe came up to Detroit to personally work on this prototype. As you can see, many Stroppe touches were added. The 351W and auto transplants really reminds me of what Don Yenko was doing before things were handled at Chevrolet.
