But I also got offers to buy a few other trucks
86? B2 clean low mi $600
88 B2 rust bucket no eng $100
1st gen ranger 2wd 4cyl needs battery $600+gas from NC

This is the clean B2
I can get some pics this weekend, the thing is still at my neighbors house. Theres some rot around the 1/4 panels but only has about 60000 miles on it. I was gonna get it for the engine, but i got my truck running again, so it will be complete.

This is what I had planned for the rust bucket

This is the truck from NC
ive got a gen 1, 2.3, rebuilt mazda 5 spd, new oil pump and pickup in the motor. new clutch and slave cylinder, new shifter rebuild kit.

Here's the kicker. The more I spend on this the longer I have to wait to get my Ranger back on the road. I dont really wanna spend too much money, but would like to have a 2nd truck. But my Ranger is a priority over any of these.

i think if you need a second truck on the road, i would say get the 1st gen ranger. but how much time and money will it take, if you went the route of the rust bucket?

See that's exactly what I'm thinking.

The Rust Bucket would only cost $100+ an M5OD-R1. I have everything else, even a complete 94 Ex 4.0 swap. Just costs time really.
