1994 Ranger. Project

[DangerRanger]

This is my daily driver, and project truck at the same time. I am thinking about pulling the bumper off and painting it white, and painting the grill.. I would paint the entire truck a new color but there are many dings and small dents I just cant afford to fix so the whole new paint would look bad. Yall think the bumper being a full white would look good? And any other relatively cheap things I could do to it. Like shaving the tail gate and relocating the handle to the back. I also want to find a truck in the junk yard and pull the ranger off both sides. Remove the R add a D put it above my ranger and ya got danger ranger.. haha

Was in process of cleaning my headlights. Came out awesome nice an clear after I finished.

and lastely I got bored. Strobe lights in the head and tail lights. And many blue lights in the interior make things shine.

sooo what next?

Jmho but I say go ahead and paint the bumper.

White's a tough color. I think if you go for a full monotone look, it'll be too boring.

White bumper might be OK (not my style, and neither is the roll pan- I'd go chrome on both ends, off an XLT), but I wouldn't do white bumper and grille both.

I'm not positive, but I think some of the Splash trucks of your year had body color mirrors and door handles...which, if you do want to go all-white, would be a nice touch. Actually, come to think of it, I think they had body color grilles and bumpers, too...Google might get you an idea how it would look in all-white.

EDIT:
Here's a small pic of an all-white splash. IMO, it's too white as-is, and without the pinstripe would be worse. I don't like white, though.

See I kinda like that truck haha. I would definately have to find mirrors that were white. The grill needs to be repainted as the paint is chipping away so if I do the bumper white what color should I go with the grill black? Or try to find a chrome one. The roll pan I love haha

I think it'd look great with painted bumper and grill!

I think the grey bumper is off looking, but i dunno if i agree on white.... But might as well try it...

 

[DangerRanger]

Hanau those look awesome, but I just got the chrome rims. Soo stuck with them for a while haha, and yeah I think it would to. Just like getting others opinions to. Got a friend who will spray it so might do it in few weeks in his garage. Then I can walk home let it dry, and yeah I cant think of any other real color. I hate the grey. Maybe black grill and bumper or a combination of white grill or bumper an the other black? Would match the mirrors and door handles an tail lights.

very nice, and yeah the Bumper kinda throws the whole thing off...
IMOP..

I'm going to say the bumper needs paint but whatever you decide on, I'd stay away from more white.

Well I put the bumpers on hold. Found this a few days ago for 40 bucks. Needs paint actuators an a lock. Once I paint it I will be very happy with it.

 

[Skandocious]

Nice score for 40 bucks!

 

[DangerRanger]

Well goes from blue to white. I am happy with it!!

 

[DangerRanger]

Figured I would go ahead and update what Ive done to the truck. Not much little simple things. Put a lock on that cover so that small project is fully done. Not badfor around 150 total spent.
After I buy another car to drive around I might turbo this truck. Not sure if I want to turbo it or air bag it and slam it. Anyways little updates.

Little spoiler!

and this will very soon be on my truck. Replacing where it simply says ranger. Believe I am probably the first to take the saying Danger Ranger as far as I have.

Then I made my own Danger Ranger emblems. Believe I am most likely the first to take that saying as far as I have. This was just messing around putting an R to make it say danger ranger. And before I had them painted and rechromed.

And then after painting and such. Both now saying danger. Need to put them on my truck above my original ranger have been waiting for good consistant weather.

nice ranger




all it needs now is a 5.0 V8

If I put a big motor in. I cant slam it as much as I would like lol. Ive thought about it though. Turbo the current or just motor swap and supercharge.
