I haven't had time to even touch it yet but here is a picture the guy sent me. He hit a bank with the front soit needs the front end...hmmm whats your favorite year? I am planning a swap onto an edge frame I have and it will get 4wd. I'll be working slow on this one christmas cleaned me out...lol

 

looks like you need a new back window too...good find...if you dont mind me askin how much did u pay for it??

 

Need to add that one to your signature. That FL truck looks weird with snow on it. I wouldn't mind having that pre-wreck.

 

I paid 800 for it but I really wanted it because of the 4 door cab. If it wasn't 4 door I might not of paid that much. Yeah the windshield is cracked and back window is broke, it fell out on the way home. I have a couple spares. Yeah Mike I need to move the 99 down to the bottom too...lol

 

Its a clean truck. The interior is almost perfect and under the hood is real clean. The guy got it off his grandfather.

 

Id say leave it the way it is no reason to swap it to a different frame and what not.... How are you going to sell a 4wd truck when the vin comes up as a 2wd?

 

i've seen the truck its nice. and i love that color

 

personally if the frame is fine I wouldnt swap it either but thats me. its better to leave it like it is and a nice 2wd is always good to have around...

 

I third the comment about leaving it 2wd. It looks pretty damn clean.. Is it an auto or stick?

 

Well I only keep one truck at a time and I prefer the 4wd. I plan on keeping it because of the extra doors. I am not really crazy about red trucks so it will go when its time. I have only sold one truck I converted to 4wd...no problem. Thanks for your help Brian, sure made my life easier. I like the color on the new truck also but I am already thinking fx4...lol

 

Its an automatic. The guy told me it was a 4.0 but when I got there it was a 3.0...oh well I got it anyway.

 

I umm...kinda wanna buy it from ya.....for MY project!

 

That is awesome what you do rebuilding rangers. My uncle owns a body shop and does the same thing. Me and my brother both have rangers that we helped him rebuild.

 

Thanks Tom I actually enjoy doing it. And no Shane you can't have my project...lol
:)

 

wanna make my 2wd ranger a 4wd? =)

 

Wanna trade me the bed for a step-side bed? I love those style wheels too. Nice find.

 

Sure Jared bring it on...lol
No thanks Cody, I Like the regular beds better.

My daughter took my camera today or I would have taken a couple pics. The frame swap is in progress. The cab is still hanging in my garage but the frame is under it with the motor sitting in place. The old frame is outside and still has the bed on it. I still have alot to do but a 4 day weekend is coming up :)

 

thats so cool that you always do stuff like this

 

Thanks Nick, I am planning on keeping this one for a while.

 

Man John where do you find these deals? lol truck looks pretty clean!

 

wow your moving along nicely. you'll have it done in no time. and if you want some help this week end maybe on saterday let me know. i'll come alone no g/f.

 

I found it ....where else...craigslist. Thats where I usually find them. Yeah its a clean truck. Yeah right Brian, I know your not allowed to go out and play without your gf...lol j/k Sure If you want to come down. At some point I need to swap the bed out and could use a couple more hands.

 

im allowed to go out with out her. she just likes to come along. besides she usually helps. like that day she unbolted and rebolted my bed down.

and maybe we could if scotts not too busy to swap the bed over.

 

I haven't talked with Scott lately. We texted on Christmas though. One day I was in Robinson I saw Nick's truck sitting at a muffler shop with no plates...wonder if it died? I'm off thur-monday this week.

 

Dang. Always love looking at your threads and seeing what truck your building next. Can't wait too see how this one turns out.
