1995 Ranger frame condition

Hey everyone! Found a 1995 ranger with 90k miles and here are some shots the seller took for me. What are your guys's thoughts? Worth driving over to see it in person?

I don't see anything to worry about.

x2. Lot of surface rust but that is easily fixable with some POR-15 or similar coating

I’d go give it a look see and bring a strong screwdriver to poke at any rust on the frame and scrap it in places to see if it is surface rust or true rot. There’s a bunch of Rangers out there. Hopefully you’ll find one that is in decent shape both mechanically, electrically and frame wise. Good luck.

I live in the land of road salt or whatever auto disintegrating chemical they putting on the roads these days. So that looks pretty damn.
as long as you prep the hell out of it before you coat it.
