For 1957, Ford came out with the '57 Ranchero, a good-looking car-pickup or pickup-car. In either case, it was a very nice vehicle and could be very hard working, too. Chevrolet's fine El Camino would be their counterpart of this one from FoMoCo. Here is an older two-tone, yellow-black diecast version by Yat Ming of the '57 Ranchero. They also did a panel delivery of this attractive Ford, but you don't seem to see a lot around. In any case, they are a really nice older diecast model of this one.

It is an old one, but done very well. You certainly don't seem to see the panel delivery one very often but it seems to be a pretty cool older diecast, also.
@mikedetorrice Right, I've passed several times on the panel version...I may cave one day.ย I did see recently, however, a Ranchero in a livery/wheels I had never seen before.ย I could've bought it for $10 but passed. I'm kind ofย regretting that now. ๐ฃ ๐ฃย
@marty-johnson Clever....ย ย If you'll never require the use of that bed, this is gorgeous, otherwise... not so much. ๐ ๐ ๐
The pale blue and white color combo really suits the late 50s Fords.ย I would like to see the '57 done in a 1:43 Del Rio wagon and sedan delivery by Goldvarg some day.
