rochures and advertisements for the
first-year Ranchero of 1957 were
geared toward farmers, ranchers,
builders, salesmen and even vend-
ing machine operators. The car-pickup hy-
brid was also pitched to operators of resorts,
country clubs, dude ranches and airports. But
there was no mention that the Ranchero was a
vehicle for the housewife, mother, Girl Scout
leader or even cosmetic saleswoman. Martha
Stevermer-Gifford of Plymouth, N.H., does
not fit into any of these stereotypes, yet the
auto-pickup appeals to her and many other
women today. The aftermarket tonneau

like a truck — didn’t represent an entirely
new idea. Before World War II, Studebaker

and Hudson offered a coupe car body with a
pickup box. Ford of Australia actually offered
a car-based ute that featured a pickup bed on
T-Bird in a
its passenger car chassis. Yet these car-truck
hybrids did not have a rear quarter panel that
looked like that of an automobile.
After the war, Crosley and the 1950 Aus-
tralian utes were car-pickups built with au-
tomobile rear quarter panels. However, the
Crosley pickup was not a common trendset-
ter. And back in 1957, very few Americans
had seen Australian utes, not even in photo
magazines such as Life and Look. So, the
1957 Ranchero was essentially new to Ameri-
cans. As Motor Life remarked, the Ranchero
was “for the person who has always wanted California work truck with Thunderbird power

qualities inherent in normal trucks.” To them,

“Ford has come to the rescue.”
The low and long 1957 Ford car design was headed by Bob
Maguire, and the Ranchero was based on the two-door station
wagon derivative of that design. It offered a 6-foot cargo bed
and with the tailgate lowered, provided an 8-foot length. The
practical, easy-to-load cargo vehicle could carry 1190 pounds.
It was sprung slightly heavier than the F-100 half-ton and han-
dled about 50 pounds more!
Stevermer-Gifford’s Ranchero was one of those Rancheros
whose work ethic was put to the test during its lifetime. She
said her ’57 Ranchero “was purchased in Sunnyvale, Califor-
nia, [during 1995] from the Mareotte-Stagen family, who were Once past the A pillar “dog leg post,” the interior is inviting.
the original owners. It was mostly complete and rust-free, but
barely running and otherwise in poor condition. It had been
used for decades in the family’s car repair business.”
The Ranchero could be ordered with any engine available
in the Ford car, all the way up to the Thunderbird Special.
“Under the hood is the original Thunderbird 312-cubic-
inch V-8 engine and finned aluminum valve covers,” she said.
This particular Thunderbird 312 V-8 engine has a single four-
venturi Holley carburetor, although two carburetors and even
a supercharger were available.
The Ranchero was available with a three-speed standard
shift with or without overdrive or a two-speed automatic. Ste-
vermer-Gifford noted the electric overdrive in her Ranchero’s
three-speed manual transmission “still works in both second
and third gear and makes it possible to get 18 mpg on the
highway.” The shifter is now located on the floor. She notes the Dependable Transport

HERSHEY, Pa. _ In front of a standing-room-only crowd,
RM Auctions held its 13th annual Hershey sale Oct. 10-11 at
the Hershey Lodge. The sale was held in conjunction with the
AACA Eastern Division Fall Meet in Hershey, Pa., with bid-
ding beginning in the evening hours.
The two-day sale was largely comprised of five collections.
The first day was dedicated exclusively to the sale of 108 ve-
hicles from the Nebraska-based Merrick Auto Museum. Ve-
hicles from this collection represented entirely prewar models,
most of them dating to before World War I — the very type
of vehicle upon which the AACA was founded in 1935. The
collection was sold at no reserve and there was strong interest
in all lots, most of which sold within or beyond the pre-sale

mans in 1970, and he had the car repainted and almost all the
chrome redone within the first three or four years he owned
it. He’s been a wonderful caretaker ever since, carefully docu-
menting all the work he’s had done to the car over the years in
a notebook, including the engine and transmission rebuild he
had taken care of when the car was getting painted.
Did the Chrysler really need all that work done at the time?
Not really, “but I want it to look sharp,” Gloudemans says.
“I’ve always taken good care of it.”
He contends that he wasn’t pining to own the car, but he
always liked the big Chrysler and remembers when his grand-
father, Henry J. Gloudemans, bought it brand new. “Sure, I
remember back when he got it. He had a ’41 Chrysler before
it. He bought this ’55 Chrysler,” he says. “ I was only 10 years

“The car only had 3,000 miles on it, they told me, when
my grandpa died. My grandmother didn’t drive, so her sons or
stepsons would drive her wherever she wanted to go.
“So in 1970 she was kind of getting up there, and I went
and discussed it with her and that’s when I got it. She said no-
body else in the family wanted it…. and I’ve had it since and
I’ve taken care of it. There were only 28,700 miles on it at the
time I got it.”
Gloudemans stored the Chrysler in a barn for many years
during the winter months, but eventually the farm owner died
and Gloudemans moved the car into a garage stall at the apart-
ment building where he lives. “I moved it here, and that’s the
best thing I did. Because now it’s right next to me here. I can
put it on jacks or blocks or whatever I need to do with it,” he
says. “I don’t drive it from about Oct. 15 until about April 1.
It doesn’t ever see any salt or snow, and I don’t have to worry
about getting stuck!”
