Looks clean....but the floor rot would scare me. Well, I guess it depends on how bad it is.

If the floor isn't too horrible, buy it fast as you can, that's the best looking 1st generation I've seen in a long time!

I agree man I love these little old trucks perfect for boppin around town. Floors shouldn't be too bad to do I helped my boss do them in his '69 Chevelle. Came out good just gotta take your time & be thorough.

Re: Possibly Gettin Back Into a Ranger...'86 4x4 V6 Project? Thoughts?
looks like it's had a quick and fairly sloppy re-paint, and i'm almost positive it's had body rust fixed, hard to tell how well the work was done (drivers fender bottem dosin't match up with the door, and the rear wheel lip area's look wavy) but it's a very presentable truck for a winter beater, i'd say it's perfect for what you want it for. floors should be a cake walk to patch too.
BTW, i see a PA inspection sign in the backround, where's that truck located?
