😎 Epic Ranger Based Vehicle Weekend

[85_Ranger4x4]

With no drivetrain, no steering, no brakes, no instrument cluster;

This will be a major challenge.

It had a 3.0, you should be used to not having any power.

Well... i temporarily relieved the Ranger of its duty to hold the driveway from floating up to the sky this afternoon. I took it to pick up David who grumbled about no AC.. then took it and David to Meijer to pick up my weeks grocery order.

dunno about epic, but it did get some use. may drive it around a bit this weekend as well

If you strapped him to the hood....

it would alleviate the need for A/C and be epic at the same time.

And yet something tells me that you're going to do something with your Ranger this weekend

I started a seperate thread on my weekend with a ranger....

Thread 'Removing parts from my 1986 Ranger SCLB'

Today at 7:45 PM

Just some pics and thoughts on taking stuff off before crushing.

A couple pics of what I'm starting with. I did lower it down to work on it. I will be pulling the motor and wiring harness to give to a friend who is putting it into an English car. The a4ld was rebuilt not long before the truck stopped running. That will go into my pinto behind the 2.8l.

Some pics of the throttle cable and cruise cable. I may keep them for some other project. Not sure yet.

And finally, the fawking fan. I'm not sure how it...

I know. But there is rust in a lot of places. I hope to get the fenders and doors off at least, they can go over to my race-truck for spares. The box is pretty rotten on the other side. Cab corners are gone. Motor and trans are going to other projects. All my other rangers are getting parts pulled then crushed. I have to be off the property by years end.
