Let’s see, it’s a Ford, it’s got a nuclear reactor and it’s a Ranchero. Someone pinch us, because the Ford Nucleon is making us woozy. Or maybe that’s the radiation? Either way, the Nucleon stands out as our favorite car from the Nuclear era — a time when every other concept car was powered by some sort of futuristic energy source, including good ol’ plutonium. Yes, it presaged the Delorean by nearly 30 years. A freaking nukachero. Thanks Scroggzilla.
