1989 ford ranger. top chopped with full stock windshield. Body: completely rust free with the exception of some minor rust bubbles in the area of the re fit of the windshield post (see pics.) bed mini tubbed. full interior and headliner. needs repaint as the clear coat is lifting in places and rubbed through around the driver window (probably from arm and hand contact while being driven. has a custom grille. some custom details around the body. Drive train: 355 early 70"s Chevy with a moderate camshaft and Pete Jackson gear drive. internals details unknown. stock exhaust manifolds into dual turbo type mufflers. (sound good but needs attention. ) aluminum dual plane Edelbrock intake and Holly list 3310 carb. Trans: 700 r 4 that I had rebuilt with 3300 stall lock up converter, Kevlar bands, corvette servo, and overdrive lock up is through a manual push /pull switch on the dash. (trans has less than 1000 mile on it. rear end: 9 inch ford narrowed single track (yup) and 14/ 32/mickeys and pro star wheels. Overall: nice running and starting truck. drives anywhere and sounds like a 9 second truck . using the overdrive and the vacuum secondary carb the is a level of fuel economy. However it really wants a double pumper. there is an electric holly 85 gph fuel pump pulling through the stock set up in the fuel tank. also a thermostat controlled electric fan. both are wired on relays. The 14/32s rub slightly on the frame rails when cornering a little hard. There are many themes that could be carried from pro street/drag to ridiculous over the top street, rat rod or a nice street rod type. I am going VW drag racing and have decide to focus on that. I have had this truck for 4 years and it has grown on me and turns heads where ever I take it.
