My new 1973 ranger
Bought this the other day. Has a 390/c6. Original paint. Pretty faded. Bed is almost flawless. Only 1 tiny dent in the tailgate. Interior straight and no rust. Not sure I love the patina. I may paint it. But it runs good.

Looks like a sound old truck! Without much rust, I think it would be a good candidate for just a couple coats of clear. It'll keep the character, but bring the color back to the blue.

Pretty nice looking truck. Looks like a good solid start to a project, no rust is a big bonus.
