Please note that this is one of less than 14 examples commissioned by the Ford Motor Company.
With less than 7,300 miles from new, this custom convertible pickup truck is nicely optioned with a five speed manual transmission, custom wheels, driving lights, and every power option. Original dealer brochure.
Update!!! Got this info from someone responding to the listing....so it may be correct and the info that was given to me and printed in auction catalogs was wrong! I am posting this as a possible correction until proven wrong. Marc
"Just for reference, these trucks were not built by ASC, they were developed and built by Bob Kaiser and my father at a company called Professional Auto Crafters. Also, they were not commissioned by Ford but rather they were built as a privately funded short run and pitched to Ford as a third party conversion to be sold on Ford dealer lots. (very much the same as ASC did with the Mustang, Dakota, Camaro, Etc.) Ford passed on the concept and that was the end of the SkyRanger and Professional Auto Crafters."
I think its ugly as sin itself (maybe due to the red paint) but it may blow someones skirt up.. lol
