'70 Boss 302 Stripes on an '05 Ranger Edge?
 
I loved the looks of the '70 Mustang Boss 302 with the stripes starting on the hood, going down the fenders then running the length of the car on the sides. I have an '05 Ranger Edge Gun Metal Grey color and I was thinking of putting those stripes on my truck with a flat black and where it says Boss 302 I'd put Edge 4.6 (after I install the 4.6 down the road. Like the idea?

Not many trucks can pull off muscle car styling, but it's worth a photoshop atleast. I wouldn't put it on before the engine goes in though..

Anyone any good at photo shoping? lol and Goody Where did u get that black toolbox? thats exactly what i have been looking for because i'm going with a gun metal grey and black theme

It's actually a $50 craigslist box that used to be a pool truck box. So it was nasty, i just scuffed it and painted it.

Mod them yourself, thats what I did. Do a search for headlight mod and you'll find tons of info

Thanks, they are stockers that were stuck in the oven and painted. If you search 'headlight mod' you'll probably come up with the procedure.

Alright I can't post pictures for some reason but go to this web site and tell me how u think the boss stripes look on a ranger pretty close to mine.

Its at the bottom of the page lol

woody99stpsde 01-07-2009 05:46 PM

that actually looks kinda cool

i think it would look better on a G.O. or Chrome Yellow ranger though

korey89 01-07-2009 05:49 PM

I say no, it looks dumb on a ranger IMO.

JRacer 01-07-2009 05:55 PM

the hood looks good but the rest is ugly

Willzane 01-07-2009 05:58 PM

Would only look good if it actually had a 302 in it IMO or put 3.02 on the strip instead hahaha

Lazler 01-07-2009 06:01 PM

well it says EDGE 4.6 on it becasue she will soon have a 4.6 in it

Willzane 01-07-2009 06:08 PM

there was a pic i saw a while back of a gen 1 or 2 ranger that had those stripes on it. i think it was on cardomain. anyway go for it. it would be different and done right could look pretty BA. did you get the 4.6 out of a stang?

Lazler 01-07-2009 06:10 PM

haven't got the 4.6 yet but it will be a rebuilt out of a 2003 Ford F-150

Willzane 01-07-2009 06:12 PM

sweet. that should move pretty quick.

Lazler 01-07-2009 06:14 PM

thats what i was hoping lol cause its a 4x2 possibly a 4x4 in time.. so for now i can pick on some s10/sonoma/colorado/canyons:P

Willzane 01-07-2009 06:19 PM

lol nice. i cant ever pick on the v6 s10s or sonomas.:sad2:

Lazler 01-07-2009 06:20 PM

lol why not?

Willzane 01-07-2009 06:24 PM

i dont ever get a chance and the 4.3 is a pretty quick motor lol my buddy has one and he is dead set that we raced this one night even though i was heading up hill over a bridge with my cruise on 60 when he was behind me going over that and he says that was enough to prove that my truck is slow. :(

Lazler 01-07-2009 06:25 PM

lmfao that proves nothing.. i raced a 4.3 Blazer with my 3.0 and i kicked his ass..

Willzane 01-07-2009 06:41 PM

im sure i could take or at least keep up with him.
he said that if i ever wanted to race him that he would run with me at the drag strip im thinking about taking that offer. that way all i have to do is beat him to about 60 lol its a 1/8th mile
