The Ford Ranchero was a light duty car based pickup that was produced from 1957 to 1979. Based on the new Torino the fourth generation model was the largest Ranchero yet. The car based pickup style became very popular in Australian and these style of vehicles flew off the production lines. The Ranchero GT was the top of the line model and featured the same trim as the corresponding Torino and was available with a range of powerful V8 engines up to the 428cid "Cobra Jet" engine. A level of perfo...rmance upgrades were offered and the Ranchero was a force to be reckoned with. GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this gorgeous all original 1971 Ford Ranchero GT.

The engine starts right away and will pull strongly through a smooth shifting automatic. The interior is likewise in excellent shape apart from a small crack in the dashboard. All instruments appear to be functional and the radio and heater work well. It's a wonder why these vehicles never caught on more.
