Let me guess...you liked the colour and the predestination idea with the wheels turned in the left direction almost permanently?
Third guess would be a swap into a Ranger at some not too distant future time...

You got it for the great tires??? lol....
Man looks like you got a great start to a swap(duh) but unless I missed it, just who is the lucky donor vehicle???
I have always wanted to do a V8 swap, but always was concerned about local laws where I live...not as bad as Cali, but we do have OBDII emissions "scans" that would tell the "little secret" under the hood. So I have resisted...and "life" has always gotten in the way.
Hope that you do a detailed build thread *with LOTS of pics*!!!! Or even better videos...those are almost as fun a good netflix binge watch of a favorite show(or both at the same time...lol).
Good luck...and yeah...still think that tire might be salvageable...lol...but for what you paid for the car, you should easily get what you paid for it; if you part it out yourself, might even make a buck or two...win win...and have one nasty "little" truck...
Will be looking out for the build thread....HINT HINT!!!
