What would be the easyiest way for me to find the past owners

[85_Ranger4x4]

like driving a rental car type of driving?

The wiring was a mess, feedback 2.8 was hardwired to just run without doing any of the feedback things but retaining the original carb and dizzy. There were tons of empty connectors with no mates under the hood. 15 years in the rear tail lights quit working and I discovered a huge cluster of butt connectors fusing the rear body harness with the front and I could not find any ground for the tail lights, I have no idea how they ever did work. I figured all that out and even got the dome light to work in the process.

Body was pretty clean/straight but had been repainted so I don't know exactly what she did to it.

I just remembered a few years ago the son/brother followed me thru the parade on a tractor. As we backed in to park for display I about fell off my tractor laughing. He was up there untwisting wires before he shut his tractor off.

my truck found its way back to the original owner....

my daughter and his grand daughter became best buds in high school and used to flog the holy living hell out of my ranger...partying and doing i am sure horrible things with it.....

my truck isnt exactly stock anymore....

but when Big Jim Garret figured out Madisyn was rooster bobs grand daughter it all fell into place...that it was his old truck.

those girls were able to dominate all of the party scene trails because they could go where all of the guys couldnt....



a tid bit...

pig stories from the past....

an important factor to Big Jim the original owner..... this truck went thru the lake when it still had the dealer tag on it brand new....and blew bubbles at the bottom of houghton lake for a few days before it and several other vehicles could be extracted.

that was total number 1. total number 2 was me endo-ing the truck into a multi flip cartwheel.

so yeah....most original owners are sick of them....but there is sometimes those that cant belive its still going after all of that craziness.
