Here's a interesting Ford, It's a 1971 Ranchero 351 Cj ram Air 4 speed drag pak yellow w/ brown Int Vinyl roof according to the Marti report It's the only made! It's in for replacing both rear qt panels the truck was Drag Raced and someone made some slick clearance and cut up the Qt panels then tried to fix it in later years with a few gallons of filler. It's going to get treated to a OEM set of rear Qt panels only fitting for the only one made in this combo.

Was that tach available on other model Fords ? I don't recall ever seeing one of those.

probably as "accurate" as all the other Ford tachs... not very...

Still - that is a really neat ride - can't wait to see it done!

Exactly ... it's a Cleveland, just shift it when the oil pressure goes to zero ....

It is a sexy ride, lots of hood there.

Nah, just a lot of hard earned, expensive experience ... Yeah, I was into Clevelands before I gave them up for the simplicity of 2.3's ... :rofl:
