Slightly dirty engine bay. Average quality respray with some chips around the edges of the doors. Sound but aged mostly original interior. A few dents in the bed. Eye-grabbing colors and reasonably well maintained for the most part, but in driver condition.
Market commentary
This Ranchero sold at Mecum Indy last year for $17,600, then for $18,150 at Mecum's Pomona auction two months ago. This result (which would have been $16,500 with commission) is reasonably close and the vehicle is in indifferent condition. Waiting for a better offer means incurring more costs for entry fees and transportation while adding uncertainty to the equation. It was expensive at Pomona, something that waiting for the right bidder isn't going to change.
