Just got back home from purchasing a 1988 Ranger 2.3 auto 2wd black and gray with a red interior.

The front pump seal is blown so it cant be driven, I will bring it home tomorrow on a tow dolly. I'm pretty sure i have the parts at work to fix it so the trans will come out next week IM PUMPED!

pics are off of craigslist already so youll have to wait!

 

 

only pic i have ^^

 

Cool, what's the plans for it?

 

fix the trans, oil pan gasket and get it drivable

 

then 5.0 and 5spd and slam it right?

 

thats when $$ approves

 

oh goodies i was right!!!! those are sweet when built right. nice buy

 

Sweet dude.. I can't tell is that a short bed?

 

of course it is...i wouldnt have it any other way

 

woot woot Justie!!

 

nice deal i know you will turn it into a nice truck

 

Now I see why you might have a topper for sale. Cool little truck.

 

very nice!

 

Hell ya bro! Thats saweet!

 

Looking forward to seeing a build up on this one

 

Yay! I look forward to helping out. I might have to contribute some random parts :)

 

imo i wouldn't bother fixing the auto i had the exact same truck with the auto and it couldn't get out of its own way a 5 speed swap is fairly simple. if you do a 5 speed swap i have a computer and pedal assembly you can have.

 

Dude I was looking at that truck on cl

 

Nice buy. Can't wait to c it modded

 

INSPIRATION

 

Damn those r low! I like the 3rd pic

 

the only reason the auto will be fixed is because i can fix it for free...so auto it will be for now...5speed one day maybe

kind of thinking it may end up satin black with red wheels/red roof or something along those lines...but top priority for now is to get it to move on its own

i will start a project log when i get back on monday, and start working on it tuesday

 

nice!

 

nice. How much rust is in the doors and bed.
