You're wacko.

I got notes that the design of the original 1960 Ranchero had begun in 1958. FMC was surprized how well the 1957 based truck was selling. They made up a clay model of such for production 1960 then too. Apparently they bent up some sheet metal in early 1959 as a test bed. Then abandoned it for market was changing. If you look into the 1960 Ford manual it mentions the Ranchero, but there are no pages. That section, in the rear, was omitted from mine. Easier to omit pages than to include them I guess.

Went on to a quickie Falcon based item then sometime in early 1959 I presume. But what did the real original Ranchero look like? I have only seen the picture of one room containing the several clay models of it in Cars that Never Were.
