If you can make it to Boise please come take a look at and drive this BEAUTY for yourself, you won't be disappointed. This is a QUALITY "COWBOY CADILLAC" THAT IS READY TO DRIVE, SHOW AND ENJOY !!At the heart of this Ranchero is what appears to be the VERY STRONG - FACTORY ORIGINAL - 351 CID V8 motor that is running VERY well. The motor also sports the ORIGINAL intake manifold, ORIGINAL exhaust manifolds, Edelbrock Chrome valve covers, Motorcraft carburetor with electric choke and a Chrome air cleaner housing, etc. Sounds GREAT too with the THROATY true dual side exit exhaust system with dual chrome tips. The engine is backed by a SMOOTH - REBUILT - C6 Three speed automatic transmission that also functions very well.

All of the ORIGINAL black rubber weatherstripping is still soft, supple and in good condition for being original. The BEAUTIFUL - Code "97R" - Bright Red and Alpine White exterior finish is EYE POPPING BEAUTIFUL !! showing several small chips and imperfections that have been touched up but still looks STUNNING as you can clearly see in the VIDEO & 100+ ADDITIONAL PICTURES !! This Ranchero comes nicely equipped including factory power steering, factory power brakes with discs up front, factory power wipers, working factory cruise control, factory seat belts, factory tilt steering column, original clock which is no longer working, good heater and defroster, awesome Alpine AM / FM / Cassette player stereo radio, original day / night rear view mirror, original dual remote side view exterior mirrors, factory gauge clusters with tachometer and 85 MPH speedometer, factory trip odometer and factory back up lights.

Check out the AWESOME - Vision Legend "Type 141" Gunmetal wheels wrapped in BRAND NEW white lettered steel belted radial tires, they look OUTSTANDING on this Ranchero and really give it that CLEAN "Custom" - look !!
