Ford Ranchero 292 V8 1958

Allmän beskrivning : Description
This 1958 Ford Ranchero might have a pickup bed in the back, but the whole vehicle is way too pretty to be hauling loads. This is a well-restored example that will make you marvel at everything from the beautiful factory two-tone paint to details like the Thunderbird script on the V8. In fact, the overall idea on this one is simple: it's an impressive year for the Ranchero, and so they made sure the full package was impressive.
1958 was a great year for the Ranchero because It carries a lot of design cues from another two-door in the Ford family: the Thunderbird. The new aggressive styling features quad headlights, and for this year only, there's bright hood scoop trim. Because this is a true 1950s machine, the amount of chrome can just about be described in acres. The front end is practically made from brightwork, so it's terrific to be putting a mirror-like face forward. The side trim package is quite stylish with the sweeping line that starts at the headlight and arches down the side until it meets up with the rear piece that's rocketing up the body. Not only does this look awesome, but also it serves as the main dividing line for the two-tone paint. The factory-correct Silverstone Blue and Raven Black were given plenty of care during the restoration, and so you have a wonderful mix of one with a beautiful metallic glow and the other has the luster of a grand piano. And everything from the factory wheel covers with whitewalls to the Ford family crest on the tailgate handle prove that this is a thoughtful classic.
The appeal of the interior is as clear as black and white...literally. The exterior black returns on the door tops, dash, and carpeting. It's now joined by white accenting in all the right places. Plus, the tweed-like cloth inserts on the seats and doors basically looks like you mixed the two colors. The knobs, dials, and brightwork give you that terrific classic car feeling. There are nice details, too, like the working heater and backlit gauges. It's a total vintage experience, right down to the factory steering wheel with Ford crest in the center. In fact, the only upgrade you'll notice is a well-integrated retro-style radio that gives you a modern digital AM/FM tuner for upgraded driving music.
Tilt the hood forward to see classic Ford V8 power. The 292 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel carburetor on top was once in the T-bird, and so we think the upgraded Thunderbird valve covers are quite cool. Plus, the big air grabber, bold blue block, and overall tidy presentation make this worthy of showing off. The V8 fires up easily like a well-respected machine should, and it makes the right low tone out of the dual exhaust. And since you'll want to take this Ranchero everywhere, there are also nice driving features like the two-speed automatic transmission and power steering. Also, don't forget to look at the fresh undercarriage. It reminds you of the total quality of the restoration as well as why this feels so solid on the road.
Here's a distinct classic with a beautiful presentation over every inch. If you want a true vintage stunner, you know you can't let this Ranchero get away. Call today!!!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
