I got this one so cheap I had to buy it. It is supposed to have a blown head gasket. I rescued it from under an apple tree...lol I haven't even tried to start it yet, The battery is dead as a door nail...lol

 

doesnt look too bad

 

No it's not too bad, it's definitely worth saving...

 

you and these rangers hah

 

is that just a base xl? i see no trim level under the ranger nameplate

 

Yeah but I make extra money with them...lol I have 2 daughters, one in college and the other is graduating this year from high school.

Yeah roll up windows, rubber floor, and am-fm. It does have air though...lol

 

lol...cloth or vinyl seats?

 

Dirty cloth seats, I don't know if they will come clean though...

 

pretty bad?

 

just out of curiosity what is cheap for something like that? and how did the bumper get that color?

 

The bumper came that color. Thats how it was on the base model trucks

 

minus the rust lol

 

Yeah they are pretty dirty but at least they are not ripped.

Well I only paid 400 for it so that's cheap, even for a parts truck. As far as the bumpers, I think they are just faded black or gray.

 

whats in store for this one? just fix the mechanical issues or fix the cosmetic ones too?

 

Yeah it's going to need a rear bumper, tailgate and valance at a minimum. Wheels would help too...lol

 

I'm not sure yet how involved I'm going to get. I have to Brian's truck finished up before I dive into it. I figure the cap has to go which means painting a tailgate...

 

i dont know how bad it looks in person but it almost looks like you could buff it out to a pretty good shine...paint just looks faded for the most part

 

it might be worth more with the stupid cap on it

 

Yeah I think it would clean up decent, not perfect but its a work truck...lol

Yeah I'm going to try and sell the cap and if that doesn't work I might leave it on. One problem is I don't think it will fit in my garage with it on there.

 

Good god, you buy trucks like i buy guns. it seems like a new one every month.

 

I kinda think the cap might be nice if it were cleaned up. I would just live in my truck, lol.

 

fully understand -- not hating at all..

 

Did you finally buy a tow dolly? Holy Hell!!

 

... You needed another Ranger, your driveway looked so empty with just two Rangers.
I like the color too, it matches my red topper :-)

 

I wonder if his wife just goes with it now, she just wakes up one morning and sees another truck in the driveway and assumes he bought it.
