-went down to my favorite local j/y this weekend to find a few pieces i needed. many old gen 1 rangers an B2s around. notheing spectacular. did snap a couple of pics on some interesting ones.
this mid-80s one had what was left on factory tape job. you can tell its been sitting awhile.....under trees. thought i had it in the shot, but on 1/4 panels says "Ranger Sport" i pulled a couple of pieces here. had nice blue viynl bench seat....
cant really tell from this pic, unless you can zoom closer. fooled me for a second. its a '90 model that some one put the 1st gen front end on, still using the '90 core support. see the bumper..... i was like what???? when i looked inside......
this was someones abandoned project....notice it is sanded and primered on one side, and sanded and rusted on the other. you will see that the core support and under the hood and been jambed with paint, and the engine had been painted as well, maybe rebuilt. hood also set up for hood pins on all four corners. can see rear pins already mounted. hood in back of truck already converted for pin use.... had eddie bauer interior that was apart but great shape. engine, by the way was 2.8, set up for large carb....see the the new shocks!!!!
there were a few others around that was interesting, but its still pretty warm here, and mr. no shoulders are still about, so if it wasnt easy to get to, i didnt go....
picked up a bumper valence. bumper stone shield, 2 headlight trim rings, aftermkt shortie antenna, and painted grille assy, all for a '88. owner said he wanted $35. i opened my bill fold, pulled out a $20( i actually had $21) and said what do you want me to put back???? he grabbed the $20, and said " i don't need the stuff, see you next time." so i loaded up and went home, pretty happy for the day......
