    Had the Ranchero at the Fall Festival this weekend, Kind of a Art Fair Car show combination event. Not really judged like a car show just fun to see a bunch of cool cars.
    Got the Rocker mouldings installed on the passengers side, Nobody noticed they weren't on the drivers side yet..

    Nice!
    I would paint the rear drums black though, the red really doesn't fit in.

    Nobody likes a critic, that is why I am universally adored.;)

    I disagree ribald, the red helps relieve the blue a bit without being overpowering. I like it.

    Huevos that is one of the nicest 70-71s I have seen in a long long time, your work is inspiring!

    Mine is stalled out right now because of time, my job has taken over my life, but I sold a 4 wheeler and the extra money has netted me a C-4 to rebuild and an 8.8 rearend from an Explorer with 3.73's in it already. Collecting the rest of the pieces for my built 351 now. Still a lot of bodywork to do but getting there slowly

    I sold a Kawasaki Bayou 250 that takes up back yard space, I have a lifted 750 V-twin Brute Force now, it's not going anywhere!

    Again, your chero is inspirational!

    +1 Nice car though. And you shouldn't have backed up into that bush!
    Edit: That isn't really a parking spot. You didn't pay the entry fee, did you?

    "Celebrate Los Altos Fall Festival" sponsored
    by the Los Altos Chamber of Commerce will feature
    approximately 100 classic cars (50 each day), Show cars must be
    older than 1970 and the committee is seeking a variety of models
    and ages. A donation of $15.00 per entry is requested and checks
    should be made out to the Los Altos Chamber of Commerce.

    The entry Fee was paid, I moved the Ranchero up a few feet when the show got rolling, I had to leave it back so other rides could come through.
    Good Coffee and doughnuts, My Dad had a ball talking to the Older Ford Guys, Dad Designed Lincoln's back in the 50's and there was a 55 Crown Vic that my Dad helped design, and a Continental.
    The Falcon next to me belongs to my Mom and Dad.
