West Coast Classics are proud to present a beautiful example of this original southern California 'Black License Plate' 1964 Ford Falcon Ranchero Pick Up with upgraded factory options which include a later model's 302 2V V8 engine and automatic transmission, front disc brakes, fairly new tires, original AM radio, original specification 'Red' bench seats interior and matching color carpet and kick panel carpet and nice original dashboard.
The Ranchero was launched from Dearborn, Michigan in 1957 as the industry's first ever car/pick-up, two years before Chevrolet's belated response of the 'El Camino'! Undeniably handsome and perfect for the small businessman in the service industry, the model evolved in the late sixties into a full force muscle machine! In 1969 the Ranchero GT was offered with the 351 Cleveland engine or the ultimate 428! The Ranchero was up-sized again in 1970, longer, wider and lower than before in it's ultimate incarnation that lasted for only two years before the gas crisis ended the muscle car era in Detroit.
This particular early 1964 model comes with a highly desirable later model's upgraded 302 V8 engine & automatic transmission. No signs or any history of any accidents or damage and obviously always well maintained by it's southern California owner's since new. This rare truck must be seen and driven to be fully appreciated - the engine is extremely strong, the transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the engine temperature always remains cool.
This is one very fine example of this increasingly collectible and desirable early sixties Ford Falcon Ranchero Pick Up, an original southern California truck in rare turn-key ready, daily appreciating, daily driving and daily head-turning condition! An all time classic American muscle truck with an upgraded 302 V8 engine & automatic transmission!
