    This car began as a sweet little cruiser, but man, it is an absolute stunner now!

    Looks good for sure. Nice job.
     
  19. Facelift? Fuck me. I'd hate to see what you consider a full rebuild!

    Amazing job, although I kinda wonder what the whole thing would look like shiny. Maybe in a few years you can scuff it back and blow some clear over it for a new look. ;)
     
  20. Just a BIG wow, nice car!

    I don't know where I was when the final paint was unveiled, or in the three months since then, but a mega-congrats on the final product. I've had ranchero fever for the past week and yours hasn't been much help at all... I think it's getting worse!

    This truck has been done up right so far............keep us posted on the build and the final pics. Wildest Ranchero I ever saw in person belonged to Rich Tioga and was shown in three different versions over the years, about 1958 thru 1962, I think. Rod Powell got involved in some restoration work and Andy Southard also. I believe Joe Ortiz was the original builder. I have an even wilder version of it posted on my website on a page with three other trucks. Check it out at www.rickwilsoncustomcarart.com
