I bought the truck about 2 years ago for $300. It is incredibly straight!! Since then it has been a work in progress. The motor swap and all the work done took me about a year to complete, off and on. The first pic is the oldest one that I have of the truck, before any of the real work got started. This is my second Ranger and I have always wanted to build one so, I jumped at the chance to get this one to work on. There will be MUCH more work to be done. The truck just made a trip to TN, 760 miles, and ran FLAWLESSLY...pulled an average of 32mpg!! Pretty damn good I would say, for a truck with a full load.
