Modern performance radial tires These photos really do not do this awesome show quality Ranchero justice ACG is so proud to offerthis incredible fully restored and slightly modifiedRanchero. Redone in the original colors with all new glass, refurbished trim, rechromed bumpers, and all new interior. It is a stunning example of one of the coolest fifties cars offered by Ford. I guess you could also call it a truck! I took the photos butdo not think they do this beauty justice. The color combination is fabulous. It screams fifties. It was nice and solid to start with so they did not remove the body from the frame. Every nut and bolt was refurbished or replaced as needed. Since the crew at ACG did the restoration in house they took the liberty to make some very tasteful and useful upgrades. While itwas apart they took the original dash and built ina CD radio. No big deal right? Then a terrific idea was brought to reality with custom cut factory looking AC vents for the Vintage Air system. It was tastefully done and looks like it should have beenlike that from the factory! A true form meets function addition. A complete brand new top to bottom interior was custom stitched and installed with new carpet and new headliner. A new tilt steering column was added with an original steering wheel. While attacking the chassis Wilwood high performance,slotted, cross drilled rotorsreplaced the old drum set up. Abig improvement. Also a modern Borgeson power steering unitwas added. Why stop there. They elected to add amodern wheel/tire combination for a modern updated look and better handling.The body was left totally stock with all the trim and chrome accents intact. The hard to find and replace grille is perfect! The bed is as nice as the rest of the car. They did not go overboard as to wind up with a trailer queen. The majority of our clients are drivers. They want a great car that drives every bit as good as it looks. This Ranchero is that kind of car. Ready for the open road or the Autorama. If you have ever desired the ultimate Ranchero that is a fantastic restoration but not so over the top as to not be able to enjoy it, this is the one for you.
