For Sale: 1968 Ford Ranchero in Mesa, Arizona

The Ranchero was born out of the idea of having one vehicle that could go to church on Sunday and run a bale of hay into the fields on Monday. But by 1968 something else had happened. The extra power going into the muscle cars was finding its way into these utility vehicles that shared the same chassis. So this Ranchero takes that sporty feeling to heart nicely. You see it in details like the black hood and rockers added to the factory-correct Lime Gold paint. And the competition-style Torq Thrust wheels are sitting on fresh Cooper Cobra raised white letter tires. The interior has sporty details like the wood-rimmed steering wheel, auxiliary gauge trio, and a tach added to the gauge package. There's even nice power under the hood with a mighty 351 cubic-inch V8. So take some extra time checking out a cool Ranchero with some added power flair.

We like this Ranchero because it taps into a sporty style that was also happening with the Fairlane. And the V8 gives it the right power to have this kind of attitude. But what's the most impressive part is that this really is just a comfortable and practical cruiser. The liner paint in the bed means this one still can do the chores, the ride is sedan-like comfortable, and the Flowmaster mufflers make sure the V8 sounds nice white being civil. So when a sporty look meets with a sensible core, it makes for an irresistible classic. Call today!!!
