Driving this BEAST

The Ranchero is blisteringly fast and I can say I do not have the guts to stay on the gas for very long – frankly, it’s scary fast.

It handles well with the suspension mods, considering the geometry is stock. The brakes keep up with the added power and are not boosted because I like heavy braking and steering in a heavy, powerful car like this. It has definitely turned a few heads at autocross events!

I would be 100% confident to get in this car and drive it anywhere today and would feel the same about seeing off the new buyer on a great road trip home.

Registered in Pennsylvania as antique to keep the insurance rates very low; clear title in my name.

About the sale:

I’m selling my Ranchero because I fell for (and bought) a 34 Ford pickup and have been, since that time, bitten by the traditional hot rod bug.

We can seal the deal with a $500 non-refundable PayPal deposit within 24 hours of auction close; the balance of payment will be due within 7 days after auction close. To avoid paying a large PayPal service charge, I’ll only accept PayPal for the deposit amount.

Over the years, I’ve been totally satisfied, both as a buyer and seller, with Intercity Lines (http://www.intercitylines.com) and I’ll certainly make myself available for your shipper or you to get the car. If you win the auction and decide to fly to Philly to drive the Ranchero home, please call me and maybe I can pick you up at the Philly airport.

I’ll be happy to send you the title by FedEx on the day after your payment clears my bank (I’m giving myself a day in case I get jammed up at work and I can’t get to the FedEx box in time).

Happy bidding!
