In January 1967, Elvis and fiancée Priscilla took a sightseeing trip to his birth town of Tupelo, Mississippi. Exploring back roads, they came across a small ranch property for sale they fell in love with and purchased. On Valentine’s day of that year, Elvis took delivery of this ’67 Ford Ranchero to use on ranch visits.

I owned a 67 Ranchero which was blue metallic in color. I had documentation that it was bought on Valentines day in 1967 also. I sold the car to a night club owner in Sedalia Missouri several years ago who knew of this car. So was there more than one 67 Ranchero that was purchased on Valentines day 1967?
