#SEMA2017: Truck Wars! WHICH Retromod Ford Bronco Strikes YOUR Fancy?
We're just getting warmed up with our coverage of the 2017 SEMA Show and already there's a slew of interesting project vehicles. Two that stuck out to me were of the Ford Bronco lineage. 

Both vintage at this point, it appears that two owners have taken some liberty with their respective Broncos.

Rather than keep either of them bone stock and original, it seems these two went for the gold. 

The first, and older, Bronco is a retromod definitely worth scoping out. That's because this first-generation Bronco has been revised from the bottom up. Check out its all-new LED headlights and massive lightbar affixed to the top of the windshield. In addition, it is equipped with some serious off-roading gear and a military green matte paint job. My favorite touch is the front grille, which takes creative license from the Bronco concept vehicle that appeared in the early 2000s and has now been spotted in 2017 on the set of a movie featuring The Rock. 

The second-generation Bronco on display appears to have a more youthful appearance in line with many of today's tuning crowd. Rather than go for a purposeful look, it has a color scheme that's more fun and uplifting. Equipped with a Honda motorcycle on the back, it looks like this Bronco is the perfect companion for a dirt bike lover. While it is a mix of old and new, I have some serious appreciation for the way this modded vehicle kept many of the original parts that must have been rehabbed. That chrome looks a little too good for its age.

That said, have a look and weigh in below, Spies!

@MD I think they would have a home run and do huge volume in this new SUV if they did a retro restyle and kept the classic look and proportions versus doing a truck on a shortened F150 chassis. Either way you will offend someone from either camp who wanted the Bronco to come back the way they remembered it.
