In my 5th avenue I got rear ended by a cavalier...bam hadn't even put his brakes on at all....not a mark on my beast but his was toast...had to be towed. Steel bumpers...wonderful things.

I confess that I used to giggle like an idiot when I drove my '73 challenger around. It looked the real deal. Great paint and tires and such but it was a gutless 6 cylinder. The guys would drool as I drove by(1984)My kids used to get mad thinking they were interested in me......and after all I was a married mommy at the time lol.

Fang, technically I have a V8 Ranchero, and not a Ute. It's a 1976, what you posted is an awful lot newer. I'd love to have a brand new Ute, but I think Ford recently stopped production on the particular model. Plus the shipping charges would be astronomical.
DB, that photo was taken when I first got it home. I haven't done any body work to it, but I've rebuilt the engine, and a few other things. It mostly needs interior electrical work and the body work now.

Here the Ranchero you posted is a ute, so to me that is what it is.
I dont mind some of the older ones, but yeah the new ones, like the Holden Maloo, are just plain hot!

Lots of work, time and money, but I am sure it will look "classic" once your done!
My friend had one years ago and I asked him to pick up and deliver a door for me.....he looked at me like I had lost my mind lol. How was I to know they were just to be admired?
