That is a sweet-*** looking Ranger. A GT-40'd 5.0 Cobra motor is just that. A 5.0/302 V-8 with some GT-40 heads and some valve-work, most likely with a built bottom-end.
I think it looks very classy, I'd like to see the guy be a little more 'professional' in typing his ad, but to each their own. He comes off as a smart-*** even before you talk to him.

Here is the thing. If you have that nice engine, WHERE ARE THE PICS OF IT? I havn't seen that one on the road yet around here. Also, I could have sworn that this Ranger was on Ebay about 5 months ago and it was also located in Fort Lauderdale. It said it was a Ranger XLT and was done by a custom shop that bagged.

i say bs!!! the truck looks nice, but even if you bought the truck you wouldn't be able to pass smog in most states. i CA i know that the motor has to be from a same year or newer vehicle and i know that that motor isn't from a 04+

Yeah I call BS untill I see proof. This truck has been on E-bay before and yadda yadda yadda. When it was on E-bay before it was not bagged, you could see the torsion bars. The ride height has not changed sense then so I dont think its bagged, like I said... BS.

if he'd take about 30k off the price tag i'd buy it! haha
i like the black rims myself....lets see...on 04 edge with his options...around 17k....rims/tires=eh.....i'll say 4k....tint at the most is about $200...billet grill around $250...
tally so far:
17k
4k
$200
$250
_________
21,450
that means that in his engine alone is $13550.....i'd want faster than a 12sec 1/4....but my numbers are off, i dunno how much the horns were :D
but its a damn sharp truck, i like the looks.

doesnt look like the bags are deflated though because when the bags or deflated to slam it, the front wheels are usually way off camber.

he'd show a shot of his engine if he really had it, and he'd also take a shot of the bags, and him at high and low ride height etc etc. if he only had one pic... i might believe him. but that he took both angle shots AND went under his truck to get a pic of train horns (WTF?)... little sketchy
and the truck on car domain doesn't have a spoiler like the one on ebay btw..
man.. the winner of that ebay bid got a STEAL!
