For Sale: 1969 Ford Ranchero in Lutz, Florida

When Ford's Ranchero debuted in 1957, it became America's first official "hybrid" by blending the drivability of a car with the utility of a pickup truck. With a full repaint in its original Wimbledon White, this 1969 Ford Ranchero Rio Grande is a one-year-wonder. Backed by an official Marti Report, this 1969-only appearance and trim package is defined by one of three "Grabber" colors, a blacked-out scooped hood, and a vinyl hardtop, among other details that make this incredibly rare Ranchero stand out in any crowd.

Inside, we find a clean and updated black vinyl interior. A storage/armrest center console separates a pair of plush bucket seats, providing an expansive view of the road ahead. A two-spoke power-assisted steering wheel sits ahead of a quartet of racy white-faced gauges, while a trio of auxiliary gauges sits just ahead of the T-bar shifter. An upgraded AM/FM/AUX retro-style head unit handles soundtrack duties.

Under the hood, we find a clean engine bay featuring a 351-cubic-inch overhead-valve Windsor V-8. With its two-bolt main, Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, long-tube headers, dual exhaust, and MagnaFlow mufflers, this small-block V-8 routes power through a four-speed floor-shifted automatic AOD transmission on its way to BFGoodrich Radial T/A tires.
