Came across this one yesterday and thought someone might be interested. Need to stop by and get the contact info if it's still unsold, need to take a better look.

The truck itself is painted white (fairly recent), shaved emblems and has a velcro attached cover over the back. As far as I can tell is it's on a carb and looks like an AOD tranny, BOM shifter. Nothing was changed on the suspension, welded spoke 14" wheels and same brakes. The biggest problem I saw was on the underside where rust is getting into the cab attachment points, needs a bit of metal refurbishing and general corrosion treatment all along the frame.

He was looking at selling it for $3500 but wanted to see about knocking off a bit off the price.

Got some additional info on the ranger.

The wheels are american racing brand painted in black with the thin blue and red stripe on the outer part of the rim. The bed cover uses snap fasteners and looks like a heavy fabric still in good shape. The tranny is a TCI 3 speed with a B&M shifter with around 50,000 mi since install. The rust is contained to the access point with the rubber insert on the bottom of the cab, the frames been taken care of over the years. Still has the original 7.5 rear and has a custom exhaust routed through to the rear bumper straight out the back, 2 1/4" pipe. The instrument cluster is all custom guages and mounted on a black backplate. If anyone is wanting to see some photos and or contact info, i'll send the ph# through a pm. Looks like it's been a good little hot rod street truck.
just sounds like to much money for the truck imo
