1966 Ford Mustero, The Ford Mustang Pickup – a Combination of Ranchero and Mustang
Ford took the motoring world by storm 55 years ago when it introduced a muscle car for the masses – the Mustang.

A pick up version was developed two years after introduction. With Ford’s blessing Beverly Hills Ford, a Los Angeles area car dealership produced a small run of Mustang pickups in 1966.
Beverley Hills Ford named this Mustang “Mustero” ; it was a combination of Ranchero and Mustang. The 1966 Ford Ranchero was a pickup built on the Ford Fairlane platform that had Ford Falcon exterior body panels and interior trim.

From the cab back was more closely related to the Fairlane. The reason Ford utilized the Fairlane platform was due to it being a sturdier unibody structure than the Falcon. Beverly Hills Ford didn’t follow the conventional route with a Mustero which would have been adding a boxy pickup truck bed to the Mustang, just like the one found on the Ranchero.

In 1967 only 50 Musteros were produced, the Mustero conversion package added a hefty $4,000 to the Mustangs price which brought the Musteros total base delivery price to a little over $6,500. As a comparison, you could buy a Falcon Ranchero with a 289 V8 for $2,200 and a 427 Shelby Cobra could be purchased for around $7,000.
