emblem trouble

When i purchased my 1965 f100 a few months ago it had a Ranger emblem on the grill. I didnt think that ford introduced the ranger package until later. Is this correct or was someone bored and needed something to do? lol

1966 was the first year for the Ranger series. Most likely your grille was replaced somewhere in it's life. The Rangers were pretty fancy with special interiors and body mouldings, full hubcaps, etc......

Barry 65 was the first year for the Ranger, there is one in NC that still has the window sticker.

No grill emblems either, looks like someone thought it would cool be to have one there.

No prob. Barry, Ford wasn't sure about it then either. This 65 isn't a Custom cab, Mustang seats, Comet console, what a colouge. Sounds a little like my truck. he he
