Tom I love the stance and the wheels and tire combo on the Ranchero, Great job.

Is that the "container" Vicky in your avatar? Also well done.

Yes that is "Victor Victoria". Recently completed a 450 mile tour with our club.
Thanks to Dennis for selling to me.

I'd like to have one if I had the room.
The rotisserie was made by a neighbor of mine for $800.00. I could not have done the work on the underside or wheel wells (badly dented from firewood loading.... from a distance) without it.
After the Ranchero was back on it's wheels, I sold it for $800.00. No place in the shop to store it and no plans to do another in the future.

Looks Great! In my opinion the Falcon is the "modern" Model A, many different body configurations on the same platform, just as the A had been over 3 decades before it. I have a 64 Ranch, factory 260 4spd also. The literature I have says only 3% of total Falcon production had the 4 gear transmission. Add in other options like power steering, and you have some very low numbers.
