Silvercreeker Posted May 4, 2024 Posted May 4, 2024 The 1960 Ranchero is done, a fun build for Cinco de Mayo! The Rancher-low is a “mostly stock”1960 AMT Ranchero painted Mission Models Iridescent Pearl Wild Berry over silver and metallic Testors plum crazy purple roof and bed. All the chrome is Bare Metal Foil. I lowered it 6” scale inches, added Pegasus 15” mini Torque Trust rims with whitewalls. Texas 3D disc brakes. 8” chain steering wheel and chain license plates from. Hoppin Hydros. VCG Resins lowrider batteries, hydraulic pumps, coil and high slammed shifter. Dashboard and radio are from Car Parts, engine wires and looms are from Pro-tech. Iceman Collections Cadillac rear view mirrors, and the rest of the parts are from the stash of extras. Happy Cinco de Mayo (from a Irish guy!) Now on to another street hot rod build. Enjoy. 11
Street Rod Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Really cool build! Lots of cool details and great paint work. 1
Bainford Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Sweet Ranchero. When I read the title, I wasn't sure an old Ranchero would look good as a low rider, but I was wrong. That looks great. Perfect tire/wheel combo, nice colours. Very cool! 1
Spottedlaurel Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 That's nice - very cleanly done, simple but very effective look. 1
espo Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Beautiful looking paint colors and finish. The body work looks really smooth. Like the details in the bed. 1
Koellefornia Kid Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Love that paint job! Great looking Ranchero! 1
karbuildr Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 I am absolutely crazy over that very cool paint work. Never saw this old kit look so good, very well done. 1
Pierre_tec Posted May 6, 2024 Posted May 6, 2024 Very nice build! So nice that now I want to strip the paint of a stalled proyect, to try something similar! 1
ReduitRetro Posted May 6, 2024 Posted May 6, 2024 I love it! I've got a couple Ranchero kits buried in my stash somewhere, looks like you've given me a few ideas...nice! 1
ncbuckeye67 Posted May 6, 2024 Posted May 6, 2024 That's beautiful! I love the colors, and that mirrored base too.
XYHARRY Posted May 11, 2024 Posted May 11, 2024 That is one gorgeous lowrider, really well done Scott. Cheers, David. ??
carrucha Posted May 11, 2024 Posted May 11, 2024 Cool build. The Ranchero looks good as a lowrider. Nice color combo. I really dig the wheel/tire combo. Reminds of a 1962 Ford Falcon wagon lowrider I saw at a lowrider show in 2013. 1
