The beater thread
Alright I have done a build thread on all my past projects and figured I would do one on the ranger.

Plans are black paint Leveling kit ordered 40 bucks Tires 32x1150x15 15x8 craiger 8 100 bucks tinted windows 5% all around 35 on the windshield Swap ugly tan interior to grey maybe do black Here are some pics I have of it http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...psccc8a453.jpg http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...ps304bf44f.jpg ---------- Some other projects http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...ysstuff116.jpg http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...ysstuff242.jpg 97 cummins http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...mper99/036.jpg http://i1090.photobucket.com/albums/...0426121641.jpg My current project is about to go into the body shop 97 crew cab f350 I'll get pics up at some point |
Man I'd love to find that for $800. Around here you're lucky to find an 80s model that's been beat to hell for that.

Re: The beater thread
Alright I'm having two issues one minor one is the radio.
I got the truck with no radio. Bought the harness and head unit new. I hooked it all up and it didn't work. Check power and my yellw wire for memory has no power. Does anyone know what I could tap into to make it work? I'm no electrical guru and could use some help. Next is he clutch. It's hard to go into gear. I have read that could be air bubbles in the line but what else could it be? Tia |
Re: The beater thread

Re: The beater thread
Love the Jeep redone. However you messed up on the cummins, you should of done everything you did but 2things:left it a daully, and just do a solid paint color. Otherwise it looks good.
Do you buy cars/trucks for cheap then redo them & sell? Or just like doing projects and keep them till you need the money for the next project. If the latter, do you make a good profit? |

Re: The beater thread
Sold them to get something else I always make out in the end buy cheap sell high. I'll get some more pics up I can't wait to get the 350 done
I didn't need a dually but I got a good deal on it and if you could tell I have a thing for two tones |

Just my thoughts, I think two tone on trucks should be done at the body lines along the doors/beds/fenders. |
