1979 Ford Pickup GT Brougham

Gateway Classic Cars of Chicago is proud to present this 1979 Ford Ranchero GT Brougham. Step back into the pinnacle of late-1970s automotive versatility and style with this stunning pickup truck.

Representing the final production year of Ford's legendary coupe-utility vehicle, this Ranchero Brougham is the perfect convergence of everyday utility and top-tier luxury. Built on the smooth-riding, intermediate mid-size platform shared with the Ford LTD II and Thunderbird, this final-year classic offers a boulevard-smooth ride with the undeniable presence of a true American collector car.

With its sleek black exterior and blue accent stripes, this Ranchero GT Brougham offers a unique aesthetic that is beautifully complemented by a gray and light tan interior. It features long-wearing deluxe vinyl upholstery, a 60/40 split-bench seat setup, dual fold-down center armrests, and a tilt steering wheel. Additional comfort is provided by air conditioning, ensuring every ride is smooth and comfortable. The AM/FM radio covers your entertainment needs.

Under the hood is a durable 5.8L Windsor V8 paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission, delivering powerful yet smooth and responsive handling. The 351 Windsor uses a small-block Ford architecture with a taller deck height compared to a standard 302 V8, allowing for a longer stroke. The three-speed automatic transmission from the muscle car and classic truck era is known for its durability, thanks to mechanical simplicity, heavy-duty materials, and low internal operating stress.

Power steering and brakes provide smooth handling and stopping ability, whether on long road trips or daily errands.
