clean.  i like the heater core blockoff plate.  i wonder why he decided to route the intercooler piping like that instead of clocking the turbo.

why.


-yes many questions we will prolly not know. i ASSuME he did alot because he WAS old school, hence the carb.  but he's passed, so can't ask him and his nephew who inherited it is not a gear head from what i understand,  so  we work with what we have or change it.......;)

Tell me you're going to leave the color of the truck as is. That is about the nicest looking ranger I've seen, no lie.

Yeah, I was going to say something like that.  What color is it exactly?  It kinda looks like a flat or satin black or charcoal.
