What are some authentic colors that I could paint my classic Ford Bronco?

Rating9.0Excellent

I am almost finished rebuilding my 1969 classic Ford Bronco and am starting to look at new paint colors.  I want the color to be as authentic as possible.  Does anyone know of any paint colors that were used on Early Broncos?

MH- I painted my 1971 classic Ford Bronco Poppy Red.  It was one of Ford's main colors between 1966-1977.

Sorry, Mudhoney, I should have clarified that Poppy Red is actually more of an orangish color and looks good with white detailing... I think the white I used is called Whimbledon White, but I'm not sure that's an original Ford Bronco color.

MudHoney- You might want to check out this site http://www.metromusclecars.com/FordExterior/Paint.html
It gives a list of Ford's original exterior paint colors from 1964-73.  Not specific to EBs, but the colors are still original.
Hope this helps.

Everyone loves Highland Green, right? Shows you love the environment, too

I think the fact that we're riding around on jacked up four wheel drive vehicles  already show our love of environment? =)
Thanks for the comments everyone. Awarding all of you points!

I'm not sure how many EBs are in your area - so that might play a role.  The color from the factory for my 69 is Medium Aqua.  It wasn't my first choice, but I really like it now.  Plus, it's very easy to find in a crowd.
