Hey guys,

I have been working with Joseph at Fireball to produce a '66 Roadster conversion kit. Those that don't know the Bronco was offered as a Roadster model (U-13) with no top and 1/2 door inserts in lieu of doors. In addition the '66 models (1st year production) had many parts that were different.

The list includes

Dash and dash pad

folding windshield with vacuum wipers

seats

170ci 6-cylinder engine along with the different radiator and air filter assembly

Dana 30 front axle with early style hubs

different rear shock mounts

side mirrors

no chrome trim

 

Here are some sneak peek pictures of the progress

In addition, I have been working with Josh at VCG Resins, he created the power brake booster, master cylinder and bell crank bracket used on the later Broncos ('75-'77) as well as the transfer case shifter used on the Broncos from 1967-1973
