Just got a '69 Ranchero GT, S-code 390/auto, buckets/ console, AC, nice Hookers & duals, 4K on rebuilt original engine, 2K on trans, Magnum 500's, and has the ram-air type hood with cutouts, but with a blocked scoop, as it should be. It's actually pretty straight, vinyl top isn't bad, dash pad pretty good, wood grain AC dash. Should be dragging it home Sunday

 

Sounds like s sweet ride!!

 

SOOooo??? what happened ? where are the pixtures? is it as good as you hoped or better??I have a 68 gt but it has suffered over the years so I would like to see another ...

 

My first driver was a '69 Ranchero GT red w/black vinyl top and factory tonneau 302-2V. Later I bought a '68 GT w/390. I just love'em. Check the floorboards behind the seat - that's the most common rot area.
A restoration shop near here has a '69 428CJ/C6 Ranchero GT 1 of 1 for sale mint restored. If I had the $45K asking price I'd nab it.
Pics of your truck would be cool!

 

She needs a little work, but basically straight & solid. 390 is fresh at .030, and I just happen to have a new set of .030 410 pistons and a few 428 cranks, so it might become a 416, as the heads were already taken off by the PO. Nice set of Magnum 500's and new T/A's

 

Very nice! A wee bit of elbow grease and it be beautiful!
