here you go

 

Lets bring this one back. I've grown very fond of first gen Rangers since I acquired this project. It's an 1984 std cab short bed. Originally a 2.0L w/ standard transmission. Has never run in my possession so I figured it would be a nice project.

I originally planned a 2wd tough truck build, but recently decided to build a capable offroad rig out of it with a solid front axle swap, 302, C6.

 

i miss my first gen so much

 

Might as well post some pictures of my old 88 ranger.....sigh i wonder where she is today.
