For Sale: 1961 Ford Ranchero in Lutz, Florida

A classic 1961 Ford Ranchero with an upgraded fuel-injected V8, five-speed stick-shift, and an A/C interior...Oh yeah, and all the bold modern blue that's used as a uniform feature throughout the pickup. This is an exceptionally cool custom that you can pick up for an exceptionally affordable price.


You know this is a cool custom from first sight. The blue metallic paint has a great modern luster from a deep clearcoat. And those Shelby-style dual stripes look fantastic as they cover from the chrome from the curvy hood all the way through the tailgate. These are cleared-in, too, for a uniform shine over the whole body. Out back there's a tonneau cover, another great chrome bumper, and quad tailpipes. In between these ends is a muscular profile provided by the Cragar SS wheels staggered 14/15 inches front/rear for an aggressive forward-leaning stance.


The slick blue of the exterior returns on the tops of the doors and dash for a great uniform appearance. This also complements the black elements nicely. Those classic buckets look like they were borrowed from a first generation Mustang, but they are actually electrically heated. This same classic appearance with upgrades is seen throughout the rest of the interior. After all, the newer wood and chrome three-spoke steering wheel has a timeless appearance. And those Daytona gauges are newer piece with classic-style markings. And we know you'll love modern luxuries such as the AM/FM/CD stereo and ice-cold R134a air conditioning. But once you spot the extra gear on the floor-mounted shifter, you know this one was built for performance.


When you pop the hood you instantly see the unmistakable head of fuel-injected blue-oval power. The upgrade to a later model Ford 302 cubic-inch V8 will impress everyone at the car shows, and it really gives this Ranchero the powerful heart to back up its sporty looks. Plus, the headers add even more horsepower as they also contribute to the rumbling dual exhaust. You've got complete control over this muscular V8 and its thunderous soundtrack thanks to the five-speed manual transmission. And more than just a terrific modern powerplant, the suspension has been upgraded to a Mustang II style independent front unit with a thick sway bar. Add in power steering and front disc brakes, and you've got one impressive Ranchero.


It's hard not to love a cool custom Ranchero. But when it's fully sorted with terrific features and priced less than a new F-150, well then, you know it's absolutely irresistible. Don't miss out, call today!
