Did have to replace both of the rear floor pans... but that was the only rust spots. We knew it was a special car, that's why my Uncle held on to it. But didn't realize how special until I got the Marti Report.
Per the Marti Report...
386,368 Fairlane-Torinos
2,385 were Ranchero GT's. Of them,
183 came with 428 Cobra Jet Ram Air engines
101 of those had C6 Automatic Transmissions
3 of them were painted Brittany Blue, of which
2 had Blue Vinyl Bench Seats, of those,
1 was equipped with Power Ventilation.
That is this Ranchero
So very excited to get it back on the road, and let it be in some shows.
I know of another Brittany Blue 69 Ranchero exists...

A couple subtle differences between mine and the one in the video... Mine has a Tachometer located between the clock and the speedo, and came with 14x7 inch rims.
But still Pretty coolLast edited by 69RanchGT; 05-26-2016 at 11:21 PM.

I bought the 76 in August , but haven't been able to work on it. When I get a chance I'll post some pictures.
