Mart's 67 Fairlane Ranchero!

Missing my 58 F100 I decided it was time there was another commercial vehicle on the fleet. I ended up buying this nice unmolested 67 Ranchero off ebay here in the UK. The deal was done and I drove it home about 100 miles without problem.




It's in good condition and is pretty useful as a parts chaser, as it's not to bad on fuel. It has the 200 cu in 6 cyl motor and a 3 speed manual column shifted transmission. It gets in the groove at 70 on the Motorway and just bowls along. It has a pretty good spec, being equipped with dual circuit brakes, two speed wipers, washers, seat belts, dipping mirror, and hazard warning lights.  I've always liked the stacked headlight look, and the Ranchero only had this look for the 67 model year, when it was based on the Fairlane styling. Previous years were Falcon based, later were derived from the Torino. I'm very pleased with it.

Mart.
