Post Ranger Project

OK folks, Time for the Ranger project. My good buddy (trpical storm) Gaston tried to use my 96 Ranger to hual fire wood last year, but forgot to chop it up. He laid the whole tree across the bed. Insurance totaled the truck. Bought it back for $750, needs little body work (top corners cab) and a new bed. It is a XL 2.3L AOD. I have a 5.0 EFI HO w/harness and computer from 86 Mustang GTand a rebuilt AOD from early 90's Crown Vic. Should I? What ya'll think? Give me those ideas.

Thanks in Advance
Billy

Bill I would have to go for it. With already having the engine and trans. you've done the hard part, and there's a ton of 302 Explorers in the junkyard to get your motor mounts and accessories.
