Ford Ranchero 500 1971

The 1971 Ford Ranchero 500 is a unique piece of American automotive history, from a time when automakers were experimenting with combining features and styles. The Ranchero was Ford's answer to the need for a car that offered both a comfortable ride and practical cargo space, resulting in a remarkable cross between a pickup and a passenger car. This sixth-generation Ranchero combined a sporty look with a rugged character, ideal for enthusiasts who valued both style and versatility.

Under the hood of this Ranchero 500 is a powerful 302 CI V8 engine with 220 horsepower, mated to an automatic transmission. The V8 engine gives this Ranchero the power it needs, making driving both enjoyable and impressive. At 67,954 miles, this example still offers the power and smoothness typical of classic American cars of this period. The ease of driving is further enhanced by the power steering, which contributes to a comfortable ride, even on longer trips.

The car is equipped with the iconic chrome Magnum 500 wheels, which give it a sporty and classic look, and it sits on BF Goodrich tires with raised white lettering, which perfectly fit the muscle car image of the era. The reflective laser stripe along the side of the car adds a modern touch that contrasts beautifully with the Ranchero's classic lines and ensures that the car always catches the eye, whether during the day or at night on a lighted boulevard.

To get a good idea of the car, we recommend coming to a viewing day.
