would you be willing to sell the fender trim from the brown cab and pan?

I had intentions of parting the brown truck. But, I had to send all the brown truck parts to the crusher. I had the truck parked behind my work place and my boss wanted the mess cleaned up. He is good enough to let me work on my vehicles.So, I try to keep him fairly happy. I paid $400 for the truck, kept the engine, frame, transmission, wheels and tires, etc. I received $135 for the scrapped body. Basically, I switched the truck from 2wd to 4x4 for $265 and a little work.

 

[Boggin]

cool. whyd you put your cab on it tho? the brown one looked in good shape

 

[fishbone1]

The floor pans were completely rusted out of the brown cab.

 

[Boggin]

It has been a long time. I have gotten side tracked and let the ranger set for a year. I am planning on starting on it again in a few weeks once I clear a couple motorcycle projects out of the garage.
