We got a Red and Grey Ford Ranger for sale with custom mag rims and new rubber.

It's a 5spd manual, carburated v6.

Let me start out by saying the truck only has a little rust on the doors where the mirrors connect and on the bed - however, if you want to impress people with awesome looks you will need to find a new truck bed from the wreckers because this truck was and is still used as a work horse to haul car parts in , right now there is a tranny and a cross member in the bed.

The truck doesn't look that bad, I can still get a couple looks from the chicks coming home on the bus from highschool waving at me, but that's just probably because it has some nice wheels lol.

It's got a red/burgundy interior, a bench seat that fits three.

The only problem with this truck is a fuse blown out which prevents you from using the cigarette lighter, the horn and dashboard lights, other than that the truck runs great and gets decent gas milage depending on how you drive it.

Fun truck for the winter, but when it gets really cold (-20 celcius or lower) you may have a bit of trouble starting it if you didnt previously plug it in, remember, it's a carbureted vehicle.

I want $1000 for this truck or best offer, I'm also willing to trade for a small car that has good gas milage and starts in the winter, preferably fuel injected.

here is a couple pictures of the truck.

Might I add, this truck has 2 gas tanks and a mount for a spare tire in the bed - some ranger enthusiasts have stated that these kinds of Rangers are hard to come by and if you can get your hands on one and fix it up, do it, because the value will be increasing in the forseeable future.

As you can see in the second pic, the rust on the door and the beat up bed.

This truck has NEVER been into an accident, never driven in any inappropiate manner (exept those powerslides around corners on rainy days) and has been reliable to me for the past few yeras i've owned it.

Also, it has a new bellhousing, clutch, flywheel and starter put in.

Please PM me for details or call 829-3913 and ask for dave if you would like to see it.

Does it come with stock wheels for 750?

c'mon guys, i need another CAR so buy this thing!
