Vehicle Description
Welcome to StreetDreamsTexas as we celebrate our 20th year in the
classic and muscle car business. Ford's Ranchero has enjoyed a
loyal following of devotees since it first appeared in 1957.
Although never manufactured in huge numbers, the stylish and
comfortable Ranchero probably has more admirers now than during its
32 years (1957-1979) of production. Our 1972 Ranchero 500 is sure
to get noticed by the Ford faithful due to its rarity and strong
foundation of bullet-proof mechanical hardware. The owner came
across this gem while looking at another vehicle. He suspected that
it was unusual, but what a find! The Deluxe Marti Report that he
ordered revealed a list of desirable factory features and options
including the 429-4V V8 (N), C-6 Select Shift automatic
transmission (U), 3.25 axle ratio (9), power steering, power front
disc brakes, SelectAire air conditioning, AM/FM stereo radio, Class
III trailer tow package, and the instrumentation group. Of the
40,334 Rancheros produced in 1972, this is one of only 198 with
these engine/transmission codes and one of 112 with these
paint/trim codes! Additional goodies include a fresh rebuild of the
C-6 transmission, new Magnum 500 wheels (7 F, 8 R), and new B.F.
Goodrich Radial T/A tires. The advantage of having this equipment
is the versatility that it offers. You can have a full-framed tow
vehicle that's engineered to pull, restore a rare classic that's
comfortable to cruise around in, or, with a few modifications you
could have a powerful sleeper with a big block, C-6, and the
legendary Ford 9 rear end. There is a small dent in the trim
surrounding the grill, but this is a straight and solid car that
was originally delivered to California and was last owned by a
retired Exxon employee that's cared for her for the past 28 years.
Now, where did I put the number for Jon Kaase cylinder heads!
