Well long story short, in Denmark, on The paper its a 98' but registered first time in 99' so in Denmark its actually 99

But will change the headline to 97

Anyone have any comments on the rust, is it bad for 97 ranger ?

Will post full build list soon

How do i change the damn thread name
The rust is terrible! It has just about as much as my 1967 model!

You're hurting my feelings

Well the spill oil had pus a nice hin one all the rust and the corrision process has stopped.

When spring arrives i will remove the bed and remove all rust with air tools, prime it and put a coat of rust protection on it so no worries.

It's just a mild overlay so no worries.

You must not forget, in Denmark we use a heck bundle of salt during the winters breaking all our vehicles
