72 ranchero for sale

[rsanter]

72 ranchero
GT suspension
5 spoke american racing wheels
been converted to rear disc brakes (so its not 4 whl disc)
factory AIR, PS

the body is very good and overall there is little to no rust on the whole thing (I am reluctant to say no rust as all cars have rust somewhere even if its just some surface rust)
currently there is no engine or transmission in the vehicle. I do have several engine options that you could go with.
I have enought parts to build a couple of 351c engines as well as 1 or 2 auto trans for this. I also have a new set of headers for the install of a 351c in this vehicle
along the way I have bought a 4.6 modular engine and a 5.4 modular engine with the thought of installing one into the ranchero.
I have a number of spare parts and there are several parts that have been sent out to be cad plated (because I like cad plating lots of stuff on the cars I rebuild because it looks good and prevents rust)
well as life goes I have gone on to other projects and this one does not look like it will be near the top of the list anytime soon. I have over $2800 into this project at this point. I will go $1500 for the ranchero will all the spare stuff and all the parts (engines) that I have listed.
I will concider interesting trades for tools(woodworking, metal working, automotive) toolboxes, other cars, Lionel trains, ford parts, mustang parts or who knows???
I would also concider offers for the rachero alone or for any of the engines I have.
what it comes down to is I have stuff I do not want/need and I need money for the next step of my current project.

That looks like a cool car, and that's a heck of a deal IMO. Too bad I don't live in California.

Over here we still drive those style of cars, there called utes. Most country boys' first car is a ute. Mine a HQ ('74) Holden ute, 308, 3 speed auto with a Statesman front end.

Nice ute, good luck with the sell.

Pic is the current model Holden ute.

You will probably have better luck on eBay. It's too far for me.

What condition is the interior in? Does it come with all the rest of the parts needed to complete the build, i.e. fuel system, ignition system, etc?

So what is the deal with the '70 Mach I ?

 

[rsanter]

as the ranchero is an uncompleted project, it comes with the parts mentioned.
the interrior is fair to decent. it will be fine as a driver or parts runner, but wont do if you are looking to go show.

the 70 mach was an interesting car.
70 mach, 351c/shaker/4spd and tach
appears to have come with the aluminum valve covers from the factory.
the car was original and very untampered but was well worn.
the car drove to where it was in the picture
the car has since been sold...

"my wife says that I have never met a tool I havent liked. people on the other hand......"
Think of it this way and you may see the bright side of "those" people. Just think of them as "TOOLS!" too and voila' you're better off! Good luck with the Ranchero. Doc
