Said to be only '69 Ranchero in Wimbledon White with 428 Cobra Jet and bucket seats. True? Or not?

I guess if the Marti report breaks it down then it is legit. Then again Marti reports break down almost every car to be one of one optioned exactly like the car being researched. I usually just go to the model and maybe the engine and stop there. It doesn't really add any value to me to know that my car is the only one built with the optional vunyl seat pattern, high capacity radiator, dash mounted tissue dispenser, painted green, with the six cylinder engine in 1967.

 

^^^ Agreed. I'd like to know how many '69 Rancheros came equipped with the 428 CJ. That would be a true indication of how rare it is.

 

11 with the Super Cobra Jet, according to the seller.

 

Oh wow. I just clicked on the link. Didn't do that before. This is a SCJ, not just a CJ.

1 of 11 1969 Ranchero GTs with a 428 SCJ. Pretty dang rare. Even 1 of 183 with the CJ is pretty rare.

 

Probably one of the 11 fastest Rancheros ever built.

 

That's not what it says—it shows 11 ram air/automatic cars had the Drag Pack.

There were 4 versions available:

Q-code (non-ram air)
R-code (with ram air)
And 4-speed or auto.

 

Welcome to the SWF Diego.

 

Thanks.....organizing some questions on a Buick wagon when I get the chance—the real reason why I signed up!

 

Right on.
If you get a chance, stop by the Welcome wagon Sub forum and tell us a little about yourself.

Will do!

 

Nice Ranchero! You need at LEAST a 428 SCJ to get these little trucks down the road properly!
