Adam Porrino's 1960 Ford Ranchero is a masterpiece of automotive craftsmanship, blending the best of three iconic 1960s Ford models: the Ranchero, Thunderbird, and Mustang. This custom creation showcases Porrino's decades of experience in building and painting show cars, resulting in a unique and harmonious blend of styles. The Ranchero's exterior is a testament to Porrino's skill, with a two-inch chop, a one-piece shell, and T-bird bodylines seamlessly integrated. The interior, adorned with Thunderbird features, including seats, steering wheel, gauges, and center console, further enhances the vehicle's distinctive character. The engine, a 200ci Ford Mustang six-cylinder, is a powerful yet understated heart, and the transmission, a C4 three-speed auto, provides smooth performance. The Ranchero's paint job, a custom aqua base coat with fades and subtle gold pearl ghost designs, is a work of art in itself, paying homage to the top-notch customs of Richard Zocchi. Porrino's attention to detail and seamless integration of various styles make this Ranchero a true masterpiece, earning it the award for Top Radical Custom Pick-Up at the Sacramento Autorama. The vehicle's success at shows and its unique blend of styles make it a standout in the automotive world, showcasing Porrino's exceptional talent and creativity.
