My idea of a Shelby Ranger if there would have been one.

Dang, I can not belive how slick that paint job is, looks like it was made out of glass.

This is my favorite truck on TRS.

She is pretty slick.. Thanks Robert!

Like hell buddy. If that truck get's traded it's staying in the state. Speaking of which I have a blank slate here to trade for it, it's such a blank slate that it doesn't even have an engine to get in your way. Come on dude I'll make you a hell of a deal. I'll even make it an even trade so you can afford to fix all the little things you wish you had dome differently. Only catch is the front end on yours and mine will have to be swapped and painted before I do it because I prefer the first gen style.

Well Guys I feel like I am doing another Ranger.. This thing has changed direction so many times I am so ready to be dione with it... Here are a few pics from the weekend..
I painted more of the interior panels and installed... Got the Tach wired and the white faces wired also.. Those things are a pain in the ass... Anyway here is an update,

Next gotta figure new color for steering wheel... My upholsty guy is kinda holding things up now but need cash to pay him so not going to rush him...

ok, I'm a bit stumped, why two tachs???


Robert

and it's still my favorite truck.

I look at it like this.. Airplanes have two gauges that show the horizon / atlitude so why not a Ranger with 2 tachs... Plus you can look straight ahead and see what the engine is doing between shifts... plus factory tachs suck and they are not as cool as putting one on the post...

 

[Robert_1967]

ok, no problem, just was wondering.

Well if I were in your shoes I would leave the outside the colour it is and paint the centre metal section red. Or do something like this painting the middle black and making the blue parts in this picture the same red as the seats. Just some ideas.

I am thinking black too... or maybe silver... I will play around with it and see what looks best.. Couldn't see the pic you put in but I think I know what you are saying...

 

[Andres629]

I'd imagine you're fairly good at color matching... haha! Why not do the middle portion of the steering wheel the same red as them seats, like Mike was saying. I think it would tie in nicely.

Thanks Mike!! I am thinking the center the same as the dash with the allen bolts the same as the seats...
