Question Will these lights work on a ranchero?

Not too long ago I scrapped a 1972 LTD wagon, I saved the taillights because I remembered how hard it was for the PO to find one of them. I can't remember for sure, but would these taillights fit a certain range of rancheros? My friend had a ranchero for a little while, and I could swear the lights were the same as the ones I have now. I figured I would try to sell them if they were worth something to someone. I can get a pic if needed.

You might want to help us out a little next time.

Ford made what, about 6 different Ranchero body styles?

Maybe a MY in your title?

Sorry man, I know nothing about rancheros. I may have seen 3 in my lifetime so far. I know my friend had one of the huge boat GT's I remember it had a 460/C6 with a 9" rear. That was 5-10 years ago though. I'll post a pic tomorrow, and see if anyone recognizes them.

Here's a pic of the lights. I would hate to toss them out if someone could use them. They are hard to come by. I think the PO had to order the left one from the eastern half of the country.

I think those are 1970 or 71 tail lights, there are some posted on Ebay for sale. It
might be worthwhile to try selling them there.

Doesn't look like they will work on a ranchero. I went on e-bay and looked at rancheros from 68-77, and some were similar, but not the same. Looks like I need to find some LTD wagon owners.

I had saw a set on Ebay that were just like yours, but didn't have the metal bezel
with them, they were listed as a '70 or '71. They may have already sold.

70-71 Ranchero used the torino body style Starsky & Hutch look. Ford did turn out a torino wagon for those couple of years. The lights you have are an LTD wagon only item.

My brother is gonna throw them on e-bay, as I dont think I have a good chance of selling them locally. I have only seen 2 other LTD wagons that use these lights in my area.
