Vehicle Description

1957 Ford Ranchero

"It's more than a car! It's more than a truck!" were the statements often paired with the release of the Ford Ranchero back in 1957. With a name like Ranchero and emblems/logos incorporating longhorns there was no doubt that this car was marketed for farms, ranches and other outdoor activities. Built off the station wagon platform these cars incorporated a reinforced bed in back with the front still looking like the luxury coupes and sedans of the time. This 1957 Ranchero has undergone a total frame on restoration and has been owned by the same owner for the past 10 years. The car began life in North Carolina and has been well cared for since and always stored indoors. The exterior is coated in a two tone Red and White separated by long trim pieces done in a combo of stainless and Gold. All of the chrome work from the fender mounted mirrors to the bumpers are in great shape and have a nice shine. The glass is all cleanly mounted in place and free of damage. The car rides on original style wheels and hubcaps which are perfectly combined with wide white wall tires.

The drivetrain of this classic is all numbers matching meaning that since 1957 the car has survived with its original engine, etc still in place and working well. We often forget how amazing a feat like that is! Under the hood is the 272 cubic inch "Thunderbird Special" V8 motor that was all rebuilt and repainted to have its original appearance. It is fitted with a 2 barrel carb, oil bath air cleaner, original valve covers and dual exhaust. Backing the motor is the 3 speed manual with overdrive transmission that makes it really fun to drive. It has a "3 on the tree" shifter inside and after mastering this system you will find yourself shifting the car much less then expected. A new clutch was just installed and with power steering in place the car is very smooth to drive.

The interior is complete in Red and White to match the exterior giving it a classic 50's look. The split bench seat is very comfortable and all of the upholstery work is in good shape. The dash is all painted Red and is topped with the original style gauges, knobs, switches, etc. Everything works on the car including the AM/FM/Cassette player and under dash air conditioning unit. The bed of the car is nicely painted and finished out as well and offers a ton of storage space. A Red tonneau cover was installed and gives it a great look.

These cars have a dedicated following and always get a ton of attention at shows.
