Default 1986 first build

Hey just thought i would share my first ranger purchase. It's a 1986 Ranger ext cab, 2wd, standard. Bought it for $800. everything is pretty clean except small rust hole in front of hood. And also it needs a new axle. Here are some pictures!

I've been looking around this site and dezert rangers for quite some time and I plan on turning it into a decent prerunner for now. Just a little hesitant on where exactly to start on this project for a prerunner. I was thinking of doing front suspension first. then do the 64 leaf swap to start lemme know what you think or any sugestions?
