UP FOR BID IS A BEAUTIFUL AND JUST RESTORED 1959 FORD RANCHERO. THE COST OF THE RESTORATION WAS WELL OVER $46000 AND I HAVE THE FULL RECEIPTS TO DOCUMENT THAT. THE VEHICLE RAN AND WAS A SOLID CANDIDATE FOR RESTORATION. THE JUST COMPLETED 3 YEAR RESTORATION INCLUDED COMPLETE STRIPPING OF ALL PAINT BY HAVING THE COMPLETE SHEET METAL DIPPED. THEN ALL DENTS AND MINOR RUST SPOTS WERE COMPLETELY REPAIRED. IT WAS REPAINTED THE FACTORY BLUE AND WHITE IT CAME WITH WHEN NEW. THE PICKUP AREA WAS SPRAYED WITH A WHITE BED LINER AND HAS CARRIED NO LOADS SINCE RESTORATION. ALL THE CHROME COMPONENTS WAS REMOVED AND RECHROMED. IT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL BUMPER TO BUMPER. THE INTERIOR WAS COMPLETED REMOVED AND RESTORED TO AS CLOSE TO FACTORY AS POSSIBLE. THE HEADLINER, THE RUGS, THE SEATS, THE INSTRUMENT PULL SWITCHES ARE NEW, THE GLOVE BOX IS NEW, THE DOOR HANDLES AND WINDOW CRANKS ARE NEW. THE DOOR PANELS ARE COMPLETELY RECOVERED AND LOOK LIKE NEW. EVEN THE CLOCK WAS SERVICED AND WORKS FINE. THE RADIO HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH AN OLD LOOKING NEW RADIO AND PLAYS GREAT THROUGH A NEW SPEAKER. THE ORIGINAL GLASS WAS FINE WITH NO GLAZING OR CRACKS SO IT WAS REUSED. ALL THE RUBBERS ARE NEW. THE TIRES ARE BRAND NEW RADIALS WITH THE 1959 STYLE WHITE WALLS. THE PLAIN HUBCAPS WERE REPLACED WITH THE GALAXIE 500 XL UPGRADED HUB CAPS. THE BRAKE AND GAS LINES ARE BRAND NEW. ALL WIRING IS BRAND NEW WITH A COMPLETE NEW WIRING HARNESS. THE EXHAUST IS NEW FROM ENGINE BACK. THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION IN THIS RANCHERO WAS REPLACED SOMETIME IN THE PAST WITH A 1974 FORD WINDSOR 351 CID V-8 WITH A C-6 TRANSMISSION. THE ENGINE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY TUNED WITH NEW SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, AND ALL IGNITION PARTS REPLACED WITH NEW. IT STARTS ON THE FIRST TURN OF THE KEY AND RUNS GREAT. THE TRANSMISSION WAS JUST REBUILT AND SHIFTS LIKE BUTTER. IT WORKS PERFECTLY. ALL THE BULBS IN THE LIGHTS ARE NEW, THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WORKS WELL, AND EVERY THING HAS BEEN CHECK AND REBUILT AND REPLACED. THE ENGINE IS POWERFUL AND THE CAR RUNS GREAT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THIS VEHICLE IS JUST FANTASTIC AND JUST NEEDS A NEW OWNER. TRANSPORTATION OF THE VEHICLE IS AT THE BUYER'S EXPENSE. I WILL WORK WITH ANY TRANSPORT COMPANY YOU CHOOSE. THERE IS NO WARRANTY WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS 1959 FORD RANCHERO IS NOW PROBABLY ONE OF THE NICEST RANCHERO IN THE COUNTRY. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CALL VINCE AT 1-585-259-3958.
