Hi all,
Not a new guy to the internet forum or to working on old Fords. But I did recently pick up a 68 Ranchero with 302 Auto, front disc brakes, factory a/c, stock 2 barrel and intake. In good daily driver shape and will be doing some upgrades and parts replacements. Someone already put headers and braided stainless steel front brakes lines. It has no power steering and no power brakes. Door tag specifies it should Seafoam Green, but is I think Light Pine from the 70's Ford line. Who ever painted this car did a through job and painted everything except in side the interior behind the seat. Will post and ask question over time as needed.

Not the original color, I think it might be about 20 yrs or so. But it was well taken care on the outside. From looking at color chips and stuff, seems like it might be a 70's Ford color called Light Pine. The original color should have been Seafoam Green.. I saw a little bit of it behind the panel under the rear window.
