Went and did it...
I'm now Ranger free.. I sold my 88 to Colin as he needs a truck for a bit and I have a DD and the F100 I'm fixing. Met up with a kid a couple days ago to look at a truck he had and well.. Today I brought the POS that has potential home... I'm still Ranger free lol
It's a 1986 F150 Regular Cab Long Bed 4x4, has the little old 300 I6, New Process 435 transmission, New Process 208 transfer case, 3.08:1 gear ratio. It's BEAT.
Kid took the Intake Manifold, Exhaust Manifold and Carburetor off of it to regasket them, lost a bolt and never reinstalled them, then said in the listing it'd need those replaced.. It however does not, just needs put back together. I'll probably throw a kit in the 1bbl carb before I put it on. Also gotta take the radiator out and take it to the car wash and pressure wash 40lbs of Mud out of it.. lol
Only traded one AR I was into $450 for it. I figure truck is worth $500-$600 as it sits. Running on Craigslist around here it'd be $1000.
I'll get some pics posted tomorrow of it.

Re: Went and did it...
I'm REALLY wanting to ZF-5 swap this turd. lol
I've had a couple set up like this. My first urghhh moment on it... I went in for some OT at work last night, left early and came home, decided I'd get the carb out of the floorboard and pop the top off of it and have me a looksee inside. Looks like the carburetor off of a boat that was underwater for awhile....
Then I discover that 1986 is supposed to be Computer Controlled/Feedback carburetor.. It has the TFI-IV module on the dist, but the carb is a standard YFA.. so I get to see if it'll run right after I rebuild it. If not I guess I get to buy a reman Feedback carb unless I happen upon one at LKQ or something..

Re: Went and did it...
Yup, but I have seen them with a LOT more rot than this. This is manageable with patch panels and replacement fenders.

Berrymans Chem Dip is on the list if this doesn't work. So far it's turned from Green to Black, haven't pulled the parts out of the soak yet.

Re: Went and did it...
I love 300's. I'd take one over a 302 for a work truck any day.

I think this is the 3rd we've owned with 300 and 4wd.

More torque than a 302 and better fuel economy is a win win!

You have to love wrenching to take on any project that's an older vehicle.

Yup, confuses the hell out of one too, someone tries to steal it and they'll have a fun time!
----------
Also took the carb out of the Mean Green about 40 minutes ago, actually cleaned up fairly nice. Sprayed all the ports out with carb cleaner. Pics in a bit!
