99 Ford Ranger xlt standard cab 4x2 looks lifted with offroad firestone destination a/t tires.project street strip show truck. I bought this truck to do a turbo 2.5L lowered ranger project. I then changed my mind and thought about either doing a 5.0 mustang / explorer swap or a 4bt cummins swap. I purchased a lowering kit and after It was diagnosed to need possibly a head gasket I changed my mind about building my truck. I sold off the lowering kit and extra parts. The truck as it sits runs and may drive I'm not sure. I got it to start and have not driven it myself yet. I bought the truck needing a fuel pump and then put almost $1000 in other parts and labor and also the $500.00 + tires that are on it that are about 6 months old. It does have 2 steel wheels and 2 aluminum rims. New parts: Ignition switch Tumbler - $30.00Fuel pump- $99.00Spark plugs- $42.00Spark plug wires - $35.00Crankshaft position sensor - $19.00Cam Position sensor- $40.00Timing belt - $30.00Timing Belt Tensioner - $30.00Timing belt Tensioner Spring $45 dollars and a pain to find.That's $340.00 in parts alone and then 7 hours of labor @ 85 an hour. It finally started and will run and idle you can accelerate the engine but have to feather the pedal like it has a huge vacuum leak. It will need a valve cover gasket that I can see and as I mentioned previously with probably need a head gasket. I have not checked compression but I have noticed oil residue in the coolant system. I found a complete head gasket kit for $70 and I believe bolts were $25.00. The head gasket set comes with all needed gaskets includings valve cover gasket and intake manifold gaskets which may be causing the huge vacuum leak when trying to accelerate the engine. The bed is shot by the cab its rusted through. huge dent on drivers side bed panel. The cab and frame are in good shape though. The cab and bed look to have some touch up paint and their are scratches. and also some residue on them oil or sap or wax. The front and rear bumpers are both damaged in some way either scratches bends or rust. It will need towed. it may possibly be driven however it is not driveable currently till put back together. it does start as it sits. I'm listing this vehicle to the best of my knowledge. As I have mentioned I have not driven the vehicle since I purchased it I'm not positive on how it drives. The 4 tires all seem to be wearing evenly, doesn't look to be out of alignment or anything. The vehicle is being sold as is no refunds no warranties expressed or implied to purchasers.
