Deciding which Bronco to DRIVE and ENJOY.
I just completed a rotisserie full resto on the 1969 Boxwood Green Bronco. It has 39 miles on it.
Yesterday, I just picked up my new 2023 2 door Badlands in West “By God” Virginia that I have been waiting on since 7/18/2020
The Yellow one is a 1968 that I’ve owned since I was 16 (53 now). I drove it in High School and has been a part of all of my children and grand daughter’s life.
I enjoy these types of problems

Well if I had both of your first gens in my garage then I would not even bought a 6g. But that is me, I've owned a few 1g's and in fact a few of every generation except only 1 6g in my past and I love the simplicity and capabilities. The 6g has it all too, but with all the electrical that goes to everything these days. We grew up in the same era, so you know what I'm saying. But the decision is ultimately yours to make. Nice coral you have there.

Each one has a purpose. The green one is a show no go, yellow is a nice driver and the 6Gen is going to be my trail rig.

Nice problem to have! I'm not an old Bronco expert yet, does the top come off the pickup truck style one?

Yes, the tops have came off of ALL Broncos from 66 to 96. 1966-1977 was full tops and 78-96 was the rear half

Thanks. After almost three years waiting on my 6g, I started thinking three years is a long time if you think about it. Three years ago, that green Bronco looked like this.
