Apparently this was a thing ... but never had the success of the “compact” El Camino from GM. It’s all there but I’m thinking CP on the price:

These things are hard to look at in person. The taillights just make me think of a person driving themselves directly to a cemetery.

Is this different from the Ranchero? did it exist at the same time?

Ive never heard of this before

It replaced the Ranchero. I don’t think Ford actually built them themselves, it was some outside contractor.

It was the replacement - but I guess they didn’t really want to develop it.

“No production records were kept by either Ford or National Coach, and estimates vary, but most say between 80 and 350 units were built”

Apperently they made it out of chooping up Fairmouts and putting in a fiberglass bed, which seems like a really bad idea

I learned something today. Thanks Oppo

Ya so, no tailgate? I can't even process what I'm seeing.

“but most say between 80 and 350 units were built”

I love that. Eh, It was somewhere between 1 and 1000. Who knows?

It certainly looks that way

It has the “Falcon” 6. Triple CP at $11k.

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > coqui70 09/12/2015 at 22:46

It’s the Foxbody pick up you didn’t know you didn’t want.

It's there you can see the seam on both sides.

Soooooo.... The 426CJ was a 6 cyl. Sneaky Ford.

I had no idea these existed! How ugly, and total CP price.
