1989 Ford Ranger XLT

This 1989 Ford Ranger XLT 5-Speed Standard Cab Long Bed RWD is an original CA vehicle purchased from the original owner. In the 20+ years spent in our family's ownership, religious maintenance, minor repairs, and performance upgrades have been done, including a complete (Ford Blue) repaint in 2015.

Power is provided thru a 2.9L V6 Cologne Engine matted to a 5-speed Manual gearbox. The clutch was replaced in 2016. Clean/Clear Texas title. Odometer is true to the 150k miles it shows.Ford Blue with chrome finish and trim distinguish the truck as an XLT model.

Truck has never been off-road, flooded, hail-damaged or used for towing. Has typical wear (rock chips, few dings and scratches) as I used this primarily during cold weather, hence the low miles as this is not driven as much during the Texas summer heat months (July-August).

It recently passed Texas State Inspection in March 2019, however is not currently registered. Too many vehicles in my household to insure/register/maintain.Headliner and sun visors were re-upholstered.

THE BAD:

No A/C - The A/C Compressor needs to be replaced (with clutch. Still has the R22 refrigerant that needs to be converted to the current R-134a freon.

Rear tires - will need new tires soon as they are driveable, however in the 5/32"s of tread left.

Mysterious Oil leak - I notice dime-size droplets of oil every few months possibly from the oil pan gasket when parked on an incline. Not enough to worry about or have to top off oil, etc.

Wear and tear - The Driver's seat has several tears after 30 years of use. I've had a seat cover over it that was removed to take pictures. Has a few chips on the windshiled and about a 2 inch "crack" on the lower passenger side of the glass.

Otherwise, excellent alternative vehicle. Great to learn how to drive a "Standard". Dash is near perfect as the "faded" carpeted dash cover has protected it all these years.

Has the following features:

·Sliding split rear window

·14 inch wheels

·60/40 split front bench folding seats with armrest

·CD Player with AM/FM/MP3
