Wow, great looking truck. Major work that went into it.
Only thing I have been wondering is, why didn't you put the V-8 onto the bare Ranger frame first thing, before ever installing the primered body?
Then, assemble the whole truck body/interior to get the functional things figured out (clearances, cut and weld stuff, wiring, refit all parts and be sure it works) THEN paint the body last, instead of painting it first?
