"The paint looks great from 20 feet..." Um, no, it doesn't. Not even from 1000 feet.

And that has to be the most hideous interior color scheme I've ever seen in my life.

No mention if there is a 8.8 rear underneath. I'll pass.

Like said above, your still going through the gears, so a shift light is very useful.

I think I've seen that one before. Must not have sold so they are trying again. Yeah, I was thinking with some paint and new wheels you'd have a pretty sweet ride for only 3 grand. Even if it is a 302 and not a 460. Still a pretty nice Ranger minus the paint scheme and wheels.

for a Ranger to have a 460 in it, the whole frame would have to be boxed in for strength. if not even on a mild launch or takeoff, the frame would twist and crack completely from the HP and TQ....

that is definintly a big block 460. look how wide the heads are. my friends 302 heads aren't that wide. and that thing wouldn't twist or crack the frame unless the thing got traction... and with that small of tires and wheels... traction is one thing it ain't got.
