I would have thought that the center section was one unit. The sides are excellent only the middle is bad. The Original appears to be one piece.

There is a 1972 ranchero being parted out right now and this seller removes the parts for free. Maybe it will be possible for them to cut the center section of the box out for you. To see it for sale and contact them click here.

Bob, the org. & Ford replacement(nos) are 1 pc.. The ones we're showing here, are aftermarket generic & may work but you should call & check to see if the ribs match the profile of the Ford Ranchero. Sherman says they are for Ranchero, but we know how that goes.

Yep, that area & the rear window. Being that it isn't an A/C car I would make sure the cowl drains are clear, if you are going to keep it outside. If you can, get a cheap poly tarp & spread it under the car to act as a moisture barrier, Then another one over the car. Keep it open between the ground & the body for air circulation. I bet your wife is happy about that

Keep it in mind. The bad part appears to be the top piece and rear section, floor area ok.Next spring will look closer.
