The story

Picked it up for the price of a used engine, The squire trim has been removed to prep for paint. It will be restored with the Squire trim and Wood grain reinstalled.

Update: This 1973 Ranchero Squire is 1 of only 322 1973 Ranchero Squires to come from the Factory with a 351C Cobra Jet engine and C-6 transmission. I painted it with rolled on Rust-Oleum paint for $70 and rebuilt the torque converter for $75 and three years later it still looks great and drives great as well. — Trikar
