Yet another Ranger

The interior is almost perfect. This truck is like new inside and out
As for the brakes I have never seen the brake proportioning valve sitting up there in space. They are attached to the frame down lower which is where I found mine in the junk yard.
Nonetheless, I am reservedly impressed by how clean he got the undercarriage. Less impressed by what is not original especially since he does imply "original" through his description.

Very nice truck, I'd like to own it. Hell it may be worth the asking price, but the "ranger" business is simply not accurate and diminishes a very nice truck. This seller either is a liar outright or he is simply has an incomplete understanding of the facts. IMHO. Shadowrider, no offense intended about the screws. Rivets show up on ebay every once in a while.

MAN, some of you guys are tough. It very well may be a Ranger. Someone contact him and get him to take a pic of the plate and send it to you. Than you can post it. As for the mileage, who knows, I've seen low mile 65-66 F-100s. Obvious things have been added and possibly repainted. The guy is passing the truck along. He may just be clueless. Don't know if I call him a liar unless maybe the plate is posted.
Still a nice looking truck. If I had the extra funds, :-missing, I'd buy it. Extra funds haaaaaaa, who has extra funds...

This above truck does look like it has been restored so miles could be unknown and its quite possible its 26k original. Again could be 226k
There are still low mile trucks out there! I have owned a few.
I just bought a very very low mile 1966 That has never been titled~registered!

I was just pointing out to Cole that the seller is saying 21,100 actual miles on the 2006 dated Va. title and now shows 26,149. Either those weren't actual miles and was simply what the odometer read at that time or it is actual miles. I'd imagine only 5,000 miles since 2006. But it now sounds like this guy didn't restore it, which means someone restored a 21,100 mile truck. That's the part I do find a bit curious.
A friend has a '66 F250 4x4 with 448k on it and you'd never guess it. He's owned it since 1967 after purchasing it from another friend that didn't want the payments. Very nice Arcadian blue truck. I think it's on its 3rd repaint. Always garaged. Oddly, nothing has been rechromed so that's all spider webbed. They keep taking it off and putting it back on for each repaint. 427 SO, Warn overdrive behind the NP435. Still has drums all around. Bostrom seats that were installed way back when it was less than a year old. PTO winch but he used the original bumper. Very old school truck but tastefully done throughout. Truly an amazing truck. He was part of a 4x4 rescue group for years up here in WA.

I would also love to see the Vin on the frame. If it is a real Ranger than it's worth
the price even with the mods I think.
If not a True Ranger than still a damn nice clone but not worth the asking
price. And that alone may get the price down and make it worth buying
as a cool daily driver.
