Cars from the late 70s, in particular, saw major downsizing due to the shift in customer taste and the oil crisis, but a few dinosaurs chugged along regardless of the change. The Ford LTD II was one of those vehicles, and in retrospect, the LTD is one of Ford's largest vehicles ever made. The car we have today was based on the Ford LTD II and is a true automotive legend; present today is a 1979 Ford Ranchero GT with a reported 106,774 miles on the clock.
The seventh generation of the Ford Ranchero was the last hurrah to an automotive legend. To commemorate the occasion, the last generation was to be based on the mighty Ford LTD II. This 1979 Ford Ranchero GT sports a funky orange exterior with a custom "GT" livery. The exterior is in great shape, with the current owner reporting that the bed liner has been sprayed. The car doesn't follow the typical custom route and features factory styling, and to pay ode to that, this uber cool Ranchero GT sits on a set of factory Ford hubcaps which are reportedly wrapped with fresh tires. Whether you choose to cruise on by or haul stuff around, the cream/tan interior on this 1979 Ford Ranchero GT ensures a smooth ride feel and comfort only found in cars from the 70s. This car has seen some miles and doesn't pretend to fit in. While it might not be factory fresh, the interior present in this car is complete and sports a level of patina that makes you appreciate its journey. Features like the factory steering wheel and the Ranchero GT insignia present on the dashboard showcases originality, and the reported functioning air conditioning just makes life behind the wheel all that better.
With great size comes greater power and ensuring this 1979 Ford Ranchero GT powers along without a hiccup is a 351ci (5.8L) V8 powertrain. The 351 is one of three motors offered with Ranchero and if you ever feel like you need more power, you are greeted by an aftermarket community geared to make your Ranchero go faster. The V8 motor sees an aftermarket exhaust to breathe more freely and power is sent to the car's rear wheels through an automatic transmission.

A practical classic is almost alien-like - it's two words that rarely go together. Turn back the clock a few decades to a time when creativity trumped commercial connectivity, and what you got was exactly that, a miracle: a way for the words "practical" and "class" to share the same floor space. Present today is an example of practical classic car ownership, taking shape with this 1979 Ford Ranchero. With just a reported 34,500 miles on its clock, this all American muscle is a true survivor from its time and makes for the perfect foundation to kickstart a complete factory resto or even be kept as is and treasure its originality and patina.
The Ford Ranchero is a curio that resulted when Ford decided to marry a coupe with a pickup truck. Debuting in 1957, the Ranchero wanted to give car buyers a pickup truck experience without compromising on comforts and amenities. Hence, the Ranchero was well-received and produced until 1979 across seven generations. This particular 1972 Ford Torino Ranchero GT is reportedly one of just two from over 500,000 that comes optioned with the Ranchero GT Pack, 351 V8, C-6 autobox, air conditioning, black vinyl roof, blue vinyl seats, and more. Snap it up before it goes, as you won't easily find sixth-generation Rancheros with under 35,000 miles for sale.
Let's take a nostalgic journey back to the 1950s when the concept of the coupe utility first saw the light of day. These vehicles were a fusion of muscle car spirit and practical utility, catering to a wide array of customer preferences. Over the years, the concept evolved into iconic models like the Ford Ranchero, which gained immense popularity. What was once a pragmatic mode of transportation transformed into sporty variants, capable of thundering down the drag strip. Today, we present a striking 1972 Ford Ranchero, a true American classic, meticulously customized with over $40,000 worth of receipts, showcasing the remarkable evolution of this beloved classic.
Ford’s famous Mustang Mach 1 is a highly revered American classic today. That’s why when cars like this bright red 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 from San Jose come on sale, they don’t stay around for long. The Mach 1 was not only a performance package, as the name might suggest, but offered some appearance upgrades too. Only available as a fastback (known s the SportsRoof), cars like this 92,000-mile example struck fear into those with lesser machines at the track or drag strip. Now, this car can be yours and rest assured, it hasn’t lost any of its awesomeness. It might get gapped by today’s trick EVs, but when you’ve got the rumble of an H-code Cleveland for company, nothing else matters.
What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR. Contrary to belief, KR actually means King of the Road. It’s a term that pays homage to the original 1968 GT500KR, a fearsome, Cobra Jet toting machine. Today’s 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a supercharged Modular V8 under the hood to really get your pulse racing. In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter. You’d better not waste any time, then. Only 1,712 units were made, by the way.
The Fox-body Mustang remains one of the most influential performance cars in American automotive history, and this 1988 Ford Mustang GT Hatchback represents a heavily upgraded example of the platform. Known for its lightweight chassis and highly tunable 5.0-liter V8, the Fox Mustang became a staple in the performance community throughout the late 1980s and 1990s. This particular car has been extensively modified with serious performance hardware, including forged engine internals and a Vortech VS-1 supercharger producing approximately 13 pounds of boost. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a Tremec 5-speed manual transmission, replacing the factory automatic setup. The odometer currently shows 9,999 miles, although the true mileage is unknown. With upgraded drivetrain components, suspension improvements, and modern cooling and braking systems, this Mustang offers the classic Fox-body experience combined with significantly enhanced performance.
Here’s a chance that’s not very likely to come every day.

This heavily-modified car packs an RB26 single-turbo built motor, a sleek black outlook and under 62,000 miles on the clock. Coming from the fine R32 generation, it’s also got a very distinctive shape to its two-door coupe body. Don’t worry about this car being right-hand drive; you’ll quicky get used to it.
