In 1960 the Ranchero was switched from a longer and larger stature to a smaller model based off the Falcon, specifically the two-door sedan delivery variant. The reason for the change in size was to compete and fit in with the market shift which was brought forth by vehicles such as the Volkswagen Beetle. Most of the American manufacturers were catching on to this trend of smaller, more efficient vehicles and the market became populated with them such as the Chevrolet Corvair, Plymouth Valiant and others. Ford believed that the market was not only looking for efficiency but also practicality which spurred the idea of a light, more affordable pickup truck opposed to the full-sized models which were in turn more expensive to maintain. The Ranchero became an instant success due to these characteristics and continued to sell well into its 7th generation which discontinued in 1979.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this thoughtfully restored example of the 1962 Ford Falcon Ranchero for your consideration! This wonderful model has seen its fair share of upgrades including drivetrain, interior and exterior and is in great running order for its next owner to enjoy! With a newer color added within the last few years, a whole new powertrain added quite recently as well and a few extra odds and ends for parts, this is road ready with all the convenience you would expect from a Ranchero! The engine is a 289 Ford V8 engine mated to a smooth shifting automatic which as an added shift kit to it, dual master cylinders have been added, an 8” rear can be found and with shaved handles, the door poppers work great and comes with an emergency entry button within the grill just in case. The interior hosts a mostly original painted dash with nice additions such as an AM/FM/CD USB media center and a few extra gauges mounted beneath. The truck bed has been lined with rubber, the diamond-plated stainless steel bed cover is in good shape and hinges from the middle for easy access and really makes this a great utilitarian vehicle! Call or email us for more information on this wonderful cruiser that is ready to bring enjoyment to its next owner!
