Hey guys, my name's Nick, and I just recently picked up a 1987 Ranger.

I'm 19, and work at a transmission shop owned by my grandfather and uncle. We specialize in high performance drag racing automatic transmissions.

But more about the reason I'm here, the '87 Ranger.

I found on craigslist this '87 ranger with a 5.0 fuel injected, c4, and an 8.8 (disc/posi, out of '01 exploder). The truck was only $1500, but that was because it had a blown transmission. Which sucks, because I don't know anyone who rebuilds automatics

So I bought it, thinking yeah, I'll just rebuild transmission and have a sweet truck! But, that wasn't the case, lol. I'm going to make a new thread in the projects page, and I'll explain what happened with it.

Here's a couple photo's of the truck, until make the new thread.

Thanks guys, I'd love to come with the ranger, but it's down the bare frame right now, but when it gets back together count me in.
