1972 Ford Ranchero “Ball-z or Thunder-nut”
About the 1972–1976 Ford Ranchero
from the generation archive
The 1972–1976 Gran Torino Ranchero shows up here in all stages of ownership — from a red '72 parked among daily drivers to paint booth tear-downs with the grille pulled, suspension work with wheels off, and engine bays sporting chrome air filters and MSD ignition boxes. Whether they're lined up at outdoor car shows with hoods popped or sitting clean in blue against a tree-lined backdrop, these builds capture the full spectrum of what owners are doing with this generation.
The story
It's a pleasure to cruise in my baby on wheels. My son realy enjoys cruising home from school and waving at his freinds. I think they like the truck also. — Lakeside72
