Description:

1994 Ford Ranger

This is a very high quality unique Ranger built by an old school professional body man from San Diego. It is being sold by a dealer who recently acquired the truck from the builder's family after he passed away.

There were hundreds of hours spent creating this truck. The build started out as a almost new low mileage salvaged titled 1994 Ford Ranger that was modified by using a low mileage 1995 5.0 Mustang's running gear. The body was sectioned 3 1/2 inches, the rear fenders are tubbed and the doors were converted to suicide style. A fiberglass bed cover was installed. The 1995 Mustang's 5.0 engine, automatic transmission, rear end, dash, seats and electronics were installed. The front suspension is from a Mustang II with a widened steering rack. There is a list of parts and changes from the builder that will be provided. The installation of the powertrain and interior look like it was done at the factory. Nothing is butchered up or sloppily done.

Everything was done to a very high standard. The paint, body and interior are outstanding with gaps, fit and finish as good as it gets. There is absolutely no rust or corrosion as evidenced from the photos. The attention to detail is truly amazing. Every small detail was thought out and it shows. It looks as if Ford made it this way. This is not your typical custom build. It was completely finished with no nagging unfinished bits and pieces.

The headlamp covers as pictured come off easily as they are for show only and a set of clear covers will be provided including the mold that was used to create the covers. This truck was completed in 1999 and has been driven very little since and always garaged. The current mileage is less than 37,000 miles and is believed to be correct for the Mustang's components.

The powertrain conversion is California Bureau of Automotive Repair approved and smog legal in California with the B.A.R. label affixed to the driver's door. We were told that air conditioning does not hold a charge and the previous owner was told that there is a leak, possibly in the evaporator area. Although the dash and steering wheel are from the dual airbag equipped donor Mustang, the airbag system is non functional, as '94 Ford Rangers were not equipped with airbags. The truck runs and drives as one would expect given the high quality and attention to detail used. It is quiet and smooth like a new vehicle.
