Tow hooks -- courtesy of Carl (buckgnarly here on the board).

My previous Ranger, it was drilling a hole in the middle of the roof to mount an antenna -- the same antenna that graces the roof of my current Ranger.

Hahaha.. jk dude. That was pretty funny to me.

My first mod was a MUCH needed upgrade with wires and plugs (My truck still had the stock stuff. 14 years old!!!)

For appearance, I removed the pinstriping. Purple pinstriping... doesn't work with any color.

If you're asking the 1st I did to my current vehicle. That would be the add a CB radio and A.R.E. tonneau cover.

If you're asking the first thing I ever did to any vehicle? That was in 1956 and I think it was removing some of the chrome on my 49 Chevy.
After 52 years though, I'm not really sure.
