Well that's a good looking truck...Oh wait, it's a slick, of course it's a good looking truck. Thanks for posting some photo's. I take it there is no bed with the truck? And can I ask what else you might have found in your process of getting her running that would be helpful to potential buyers in assessing her as a project?

Appalachia, your replies and answers to questions, seem to be short , a bit cryptic, and not real forth-coming.

You should plainly tell the interested members :

A. Will you sell the truck, either in whole, or just the seats/console?

B. What would you ask for the complete truck with the Ranger parts, what would you ask for just the Ranger parts?

C. What , where, when is the Springfield Oh Car Corral?

It seems you have people’s attention, but are leaving them hanging just a bit.

Carlisle Ford or Truck Event

Yes could sell complete. If console and seats not needed would keep for a project.

I already found a console at Springfield first 2hrs today..very good condition. They're out there.
$5k Brakes working & driving.
$3k everything goes not road ready.
$2.5k minus seats and console.

Ordered new ignition switch and components. Slowly tracing loose, cut or mouse chewed wires and finding many devices work.
