This is my 1969 Ford Ranger I bought on eBay back on late 2003. It has been sitting unchanged since then though I did start to rip out the engine. Luckily it has been garaged all this time. Now it is time to get it together and have it ready for the summer crusing season. Too many projects got in the way over the last few years.
It has a 360ci engine and a C6 auto. It was originally from CA and so is rust free underneath. I am the second original private ovner of this truck and I was lucky enough to get the original CA Black registration plates with it that were issued back in 1969. I had to get a OA registration here but the originaly CA plates are still vaid and can be used on this truck once status is updated with CA and insurance is proven. I plan on running the CA plates.
Youll see in the first pic the test wheel cover. I decided to stick with the dog dish caps as I found a set of NOS caps.

Re: 1969 Ford Ranger
What is it about old trucks that make them addicting? I have never put my finger on it but I absolutely love driving an old truck.cowbay wrote:That is a great truck to restore. Definitely was maintained it's life. Get in on the road and you will really become addicited to the bump
