Ranchero
1963 Ford Ranchero Pickup
Why This Car Is Special
The Ranchero was introduced for the 1957 model year and ran until 1979. Our fully restored, modified, and beautiful 1963 Ford Ranchero we have here at Skyway Classics, represents a revolutionary half-car, half-truck configuration that made it easy to climb in and drive while standing by ready, willing and able to haul burdens as needed.
When it was introduced, the Ranchero broke quite a few automotive industry rules. Built off of an automobile assembly line yet sold via Ford's truck division, it was a definite hit with both the automotive press and the American buying public. Ours look sharp both inside and out and is armed with a Ford small block 260 cubic inch V8 engine and 4-speed transmission (verified by the letter 5 in the vin code) and she runs great! This is a 1 of 135 car - very rare!

Under the hood rests a 260 cubic inch small block Ford engine with a chrome open-element air cleaner assembly, Ranchero Powered By Ford logo finned aluminum valve covers, aluminum intake, Holley carb, air conditioning, and performance spark plug wires.
It looks great in the detailed, painted, and clean engine compartment and the power is routed through a four-speed manual transmission. The exhaust has a nice note and the underneath it's very solid and the chassis features are all restored, painted, and clean too.
The Ranchero sits on custom aftermarket chrome 5-spoke mag wheels adorned with black sidewall tires for a very clean period look.
Interior
The brand new updated interior has a balance of vintage factory looks with tasteful amounts of aftermarket parts like the red bench seat with interior storage space just behind them, matching red door panels and seatbelts as well as the headliner, new red carpeting, and a three-spoke red/polished sport steering wheel.
The nice looking red factory dash has the chrome center section with factory gauges in the factory stock instrument panel, the tach on the dash, air conditioning, and an upgraded stereo radio system and speakers.
Exterior
This 1963 features a new and very nice looking repainted white paint scheme with red scallops on the sides and roof that is solid-looking and well-aligned, with a hood with the factory scoop and doors that open and close smoothly and show nice even gaps. Many of its exterior fittings, including both the front and rear bumpers, side mirrors and door handles, were all replaced and look great as they sit alongside trim and badges that also present well.
The bed out back has a custom bed cover protecting the bed as well.
Conclusion
The 1963 modified and restored Ford Ranchero pickup we have here at Skyway Classics is a seldom seen classic whose model represented an adventurous deviation from the norm.
It is very original but with some updates added to it to make it a modern street cruiser that looks as good as it runs.
If you're looking for a well restored Ranchero and one that runs with confidence-inspiring smoothness, this Ranchero is the one for you.
