1961 Ford Ranchero Falcon Description

A classic 1961 Ford Ranchero with an upgraded V8 and an A/C interior...Oh yeah, and all the bold purple that's used as a uniform feature throughout the pickup. This is an exceptionally cool custom that you can pick up for an exceptionally affordable price. We could pretend that this is just some pristine white Ranchero, but you can see how bold this one is from the first glance. The custom metallic purple front end and stripes are a really cool package. It makes this car/truck look like its doing 200 mph and the wild purple is finally being revealed as its the tame white facade is forcefully being pulled off by the speed. But more than just the paint, this is one cool custom build with cat eye headlight covers and a mirror-like chrome bumper up front. Out back there's a custom tonneau cover, custom Ranchero pinstripe tailgate, and another great chrome bumper. In between these ends is a muscular profile provided by the Weld-style five-star wheels and the aggressive forward-leaning stance.The exterior purple and white theme continues through to the custom interior. The high-back seat is a late-model addition that provides more support than anything that came out of the '60s. Of course that purple cloth is far from anything factory, and it coordinates nicely with the custom door panels and dashboard. This split bench offers room for three or you can put down the armrest for individual comfort. Speaking of comfort, you also have modern luxuries such as the AM/FM/CD stereo and ice-cold R134a air conditioning. But the best features are reserved for the driver. Your left hand goes on the woodgrained steering wheel, and your right one loves the Lokar shifter. You get a full array of classic-style gauges, and with one twist of the key, the growl lets you know there's something special under the hood. The full name of this car/pickup is Ford Falcon Ranchero. While you probably saw the Falcon resemblance without a problem, the real significance is under the hood. By being related to the Mustang, it's an easy upgrade to swap the original six-cylinder for a powerful 289 V8. The motor has been further enhanced with performance features such as an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor and Edelbrock Performer intake. This added power is easily heard through the rumbling dual exhaust. But just like the interior, there's a lot of comfort to go with the performance. For example, there's a Champion aluminum radiator to help keep everything cool even in traffic. Add that to great anytime driving features like the three-speed automatic transmission and front disc brakes, and you've got a cool-looking custom car that's a breeze to drive anywhere.It's hard not to love a cool custom Ranchero. But when it's fully sorted with terrific features and priced less than a new F-150, well then you know it's going to leave our showroom quickly. Call today!!!
