Project Ranchero
1972 Ford Ranchero GT
This is our 1972 project Ranchero 500. It
has quite a few modifications that help
clean up its looks, improve it's
appearance, and make it a fun car to
drive. It has a hood from a '72 Ranchero
GT. The paint is Deltron base coat/clear
coat, Viper Red and Bright Silver. We
didn't like the way the factory grill looked
so we made a new one from expanded
steel, painted it flat black, and added a
GT emblem from a 68 Mustang.
Ford rear bumper and taillight view
The only chrome that
was left on the car was
the front and rear
bumpers. Even the
reverse light lenses
were carefully painted
over so they didn't
stand out on the back.
This makes everything
from behind the car
red except the rear
bumper.
Ford Boss 351 and 351 Ram Air Stickers
"351 Ram Air" Stickers for a
Mustang were placed on the
sides of the hood scoop,  
while "BOSS 351" stickers for
a '71 Mustang were modified
and placed on the fenders.
The wheels are Centerline
Billet Fluted Stars.
Ricaro seats and Interior
Ricaro seats from an '81
Mustang Cobra were refinished
and installed along with a Grant
GT steering wheel, Pioneer
stereo and 10 disc CD changer.
Engine comartment and Ford 351C 4 Barrel Drivers side view of engine compartment and 351C
Ford 351C 4 Barrel 300 Horsepower Engine
The engine is a 1970 351C 4 Barrel
(300HP). It's mostly stock except for a 650
Holley double pumper carburetor and a set
of Hooker Competition Headers. The ignition
system was also upgraded from points to
Duraspark. A 4 speed top loader and a
9-inch posi rear axle with 3.73 gears back it.
