Built up right and ready to take whatever you throw at it! This
beast of a Ranchero has had a great deal of time and money put into
it to make it as reliable as possible and perform with the best.
The Ford Ranchero was the first of its kind putting a bed on the
same platform as the Ford's popular sedan of the day and was first
introduced back in 1957. This ranchero is part of the second
generation which shares the same front end as the Ford Falcon.
Sitting under the hood of this 1964 Ranchero is an engine that has
helped solidify the Ford brand in the history books and has been
rated as one of the top ten best engines of all time. The 351
Windsor was strong and capable of producing massive amounts of
power. This 351 has a few performance parts on it including a
lighter and better flowing aluminum intake and some dress up parts
including finned aluminum valve covers and a polished aluminum air
filter, and aluminum radiator. Putting this engine in the small
Falcon platform is a huge upgrade from the factory 289 V8. With the
extra horsepower in this vehicle a stronger transmission was
necessary and to address this issue a David Kee built 4-speed top
loader was installed that can easily handle the power of the larger
V8. Keeping all of this power planted is a trick suspension set up
including front and rear sway bars, brand new P-S-T Performance
front end, Koni shocks on all four corners, traction bars, subframe
connectors, Mustang GT front shock towers, and the upgraded 1965
Falcon steering linkage, all poly-graphite bushings, With all of
these upgrades you can go into any corner with the upmost
confidence. This Ranchero is not just performance orientated
though; the interior was upgraded to a very cushy baseball glove
leather interior that provides a comfortable ride even on the bumpy
roads. The premium stereo system is clear and will blow you away
while listening to your favorite classic hits. This 1964 Ranchero
is an excellent cruiser and, if you are looking for something that
is practical yet fun and reliable this may be the perfect classic
for you! This vehicle is located in our Denver showroom. You can
