I have been working on this truck for about 14 months and it was suggested that I put together a build thread. I started with a clean 69 Ranger, the truck will have a No Limit Engineering suspension, SOHC 427, C6 with a gear vendors overdrive, 9 inch rear, power steering, brakes, windows and a/c.

 

First step was to disassemble the truck. The truck is pretty clean and came apart fairly easy.

 

Everything stripped but the cab.

 

You got lucky with an extremely clean truck to begin with. Im interested in how this one will turn out

 

Bed and fender put back to try to determine ride height.

 

I've done a few vehicles starting with something rough and I usually end up spending more than if I would have started with a good vehicle in the first place. This truck had a little rust in the bottom of the doors, easy fix.

 

Removing the glass and trim and it's ready to ship to No Limit Engineering.

 

Tires and wheels showed up, 19x12 and 18 x10 Schott Vectors

 

Picking up the truck at No Limit Engineering, I don't have any photos of the work bing done while it was there. It has there Wide Glide front with power rack and Fat Bar rear, all on adjustable coil overs. The master cylinder was relocated under the cab, it has Wilwood 13 inch front and 12.2 inch rear disc brakes. Fuel tank is mounted with internal electric fuel pump, fuel and brake lines ran.

 

Suspension shots, backspacing was ordered wrong. Will have to send the wheels back.

 

More suspension

 

Figuring out the correct wheel backspacing

 

Wheel offset corrected, ride height set. Ready to go to Wild West Street Rods for final fit, paint, annd assembly.
