1971 Ford Ranchero GT-500 5.8L Custom Resto-Mod - Head Turning Sunburst Orange!

Description for Ford Ranchero 1971

Why do you want to buy this car? This car was built for me by my mechanic, Dave Oliver, who is a Chevy guy. He thinks the 45K we are asking for a minimum is a screaming deal, and if he had the money he would buy it himself and be proud to own in. It kicks butt and is better than just about any other Chevy he has built - and we are talking about a retired drag racer and race car driver. We have more than the minimum bid in parts & paint alone in this car. This car always turns head and is a dream to drive. Read on...

This 1971 Ranchero GT-500 is completely restored, updated and modernized. It has all the power under the hood you will ever need and more, yet with the updated suspension and fuel injection it is a breeze for anyone to drive. Creature comforts in the all-black interior include AC and heat, CD stereo system, LED lighting, velour seats and a new modern digital dashboard.

This car features gorgeous pearl orange paint, elegant brushed nickle trim, and a beautiful wood bed liner inside its orange rhino-lined trunk. Additional details such as custom LED tail lights, a “Ranchero” engraved gas cap, and a Daytona chin spoiler set this vehicle apart.

This is a car that you won't regret purchasing. No reserve - the minimum bid is WAY under what is in to this car. If you ever thought about building one of these you will be way better off getting this. Remember, if your ride isn't turning heads, you are in the wrong ride - this ride will turn heads and has a history of show wins!
Note that we are not a dealer but are an auto shop. The actual paperwork transaction will take place via "consignment" through a dealer - I will pay all those fees.
