Hi New to Group. I have a 1979 Bronco that is light blue with Green and Blue and white Strips. Can someone help me find info on that color and strip package

I looked and couldn,t find anything with that color. Maybe someone just added their own personal touch. Sorry.

i know the color i just dont know the Strip package name

 

[ronin8181]

Given that the strips are a tri-color vinyl attachment, it's almost certain that was a dealer-added feature prior to sale.

It was put on at the factory. It was Order as Free Wheeling. My dad bought it new right off the showroom floor Joe Fisher Highway Ford in Portland OR

 

[Zeus78]

Love that bronco and I think it’s really cool that it has been in your family since it was new.
I remember seeing those Broncos and trucks when I was a kid and I always loved them, wished we had one. Instead, we had a long green ford station wagon and a rust colored 78 pinto. Ugh.

Free Wheeling package stripes came in that color scheme. Pretty rare though. I've never seen one in person.
