You are viewing a 1959 Ford Ranchero affectionately named "Old Rusty". This a great car to enjoy the patina/survivor condition. If you are planning a body-off, frame-up restoration... find another car. This is a true factory original paint/interior California car with rust. The behind the seat area is the worst.

The bed and tailgate areas are fine with plenty of bed space.The car does have the original rubber mats. The car is original paint and interior. The headliner is there but drooping. The dash will clean like new. The door panels are perfect for the patina car. The car starts and runs without smoke. The three-speed transmission shifts smoothly as the clutch. The car has it's original keys and small pink slip title. The car sat for twenty years and does not leak any coolant.The doors shut nice although the passenger latch doesn't work. The locking gear just spins. The original glass is throughout with the window lift mechanisms operating properly. The rear glass is severelycracked but it is a flat piece and could be replaced easily. I removed the tank, had it dipped and sealed. The brakes have new wheel cylinders and the master cylinder is rebuilt. I also replaced the front brake lines. I packed the wheel bearings. The engine has new plugs and plug wires. The battery is new. The carburetor is rebuilt. The air cleaner is missing. This work was done the bring the car to life after a long storage. There are items, like chassis lubrication, I did not do.I am located in Orange County and would be willing the personally deliver the overseas shipper.
