What would you suggest?

I am considering buying a 1965 Ford Ranchero, with a 3 speed automatic, its top speed is about 65 mph @ 3.2 rpm on the fwy (that is the maintained speed). That is slow by new car standards, I want it to cruise at 65-80 mph at a low rpm. I want it to ride on the fwy well. I have been suggested Vender Gear but it cost $3,500.00 plus so that doesn't make sense financially.

It has 4.11 gearing in the reared. What would you suggest?

Thank all of you for your help. The 1965 Ford Ranchero turned out to be a disappointment. I am still looking of a 1964-1965 good looking Ford Ranchero, it has to be white or maybe red, I want it to be a great truck in and out, un modified, headers & exhaust system is good. Not afraid to travel to get the right truck. Their is a cold beer finder fee paid for locating the right truck. I am in Los Angeles.
