I recently bought this Ranchero from the estate of a good friend. Plan to keep it as is for a while. Stock 312, 3 speed, 4.11 gear. Rick http://www.supermotors.org/registry/vehicles/detail.php?id=6001&s=19839#content [ August 25, 2004, 04:35 PM: Message edited by: 5.0 Chero ]
Thanks everyone for all the compliments, unfortunately, my friend who built the car, is not with us any more to receive them. He really enjoyed the car as a occasional driver and took great care of it. I guess I am just the temporary custodian of the car now. I have lots of visions of what I would like to do to the car, but...... Rick
It looks wicked the way it sits. The only thing I would possibly do is look for the 59 hood with the scoop. I believe they should just swap but I could be wrong as the 57-59s I dont know much about. I dont think I would touch anything else myself personally its a beauty.
Very, Very, Very nice!!!!! We are all temporary custodians of the things we love; '57 Rancheros, trains, stamps, what ever you enjoy collecting. When I find my next '57 Ranchero my daughter will have to transfer it to the next custodian. (My grand-daughter has spoken for the Mustang.) Thx for posting the pictures, r
