Default Hello from Ohio

Hi everyone. Just bought a 2WD 96' ranger xlt with the 2.3L. It is pretty rough at the moment but with some tlc will be a great little truck. As for me, I am a student at the university of cincinnati working on my degree in aviation technology.

Plans: Interior is in progress. Took out the old 60/40 bench and replaced with captains chairs out of a 96 dodge caravan... little bit of welding but look great. Currently deciding whether or not I want to buy new carpet... the previous owner let something rust on top of the carpet and a power washer isnt getting the stain out.

For the exterior, there is a lot of little "dings" to be pulled. The truck is currently silver but Im thinking a two-tone paint job would be appealing. any suggestions? Besides that, new headlights/tailights, and maybe a small lift are in the trucks future.

Thanks and sorry for the long winded intro.
Ill try to get some before and after pics of the interior within the next week or so.
