[LEB Ben]

Whats with his fascination with drinking...?

Dunno...and his stories aren't adding up anymore (again)...I believe in the general chit chat he said:

And (No offense) doesn't alcohol severely alter your motor skills?

HAHA...pun intended??? But yes, hence the reason I normally stay away from the stuff.

As will I,in fact no-one in my family is a drinker,my dad hasn't been plastered sense the early 80s.

Speaking of the general chit chat this conversation should be moved over there...maybe someone can move these posts, so ranger's thread gets the respect it deserves.

I agree 100%.

Could a mod clean this thread up a bit and get rid of the useless chatter?

Well started tearing into it today. Got the winch and bumper off and removed some hacked in wiring.

Much cleaner looking.

Nice place for a license plate light

Repair this by welding in a new piece.

Door jambs all look this good.

Fair amount of dirt under the carpet.

But underneath it is still painted brown. Should clean up nicely.

Tearing out the mess of wires.

Junk!

It's to bad I have to change the interior color. The front and back brown seats are in great condition.

 

[jcduerr]

i see the stock shift knobs are still on. not a fan of cc's my self but that one seems like its real solid and nice

 

[TexasNomad]

Wow! awesome truck! are you going to do a frame up or is this truck just going to be a toy?

 

[Ranger429]

It's very solid Josh. The shift knobs will come off soon enough.

It won't be a frame off. I'm concentrationg more on getting the body straight and the interior done right. It should look pretty good when done.

 

[jcduerr]

GL and keep us posted

Are you going to resale it?

 

[jcduerr]

id keep it and add it to collection if i were him

 

[Ranger429]

Not selling it as of yet, I have every intention of keeping this one.

 

[Raptor22]

You just like that its a shortbed.

 

[Ranger429]

If it's a shortbed you want I have a rust free 79 F-150 shortbed 4x4 out of Ca I'm selling.

 

[Ranger429]

Not much today. I ended up changing the tailgate and added the taillight molding. I also gutted the rest of the interior other than seats and carpet. When it is all done it will be a Ranger XLT.

Hard to tell but there was some rust coming thru the center of the gate.

Donor A/C dash.
