I'm partial to that body style, and other than yours being a long bed is about the same as my truck started out as... then it grew up... Kinda wish it was stock still sometimes, but then the turbo spools up and I get a smile on my face...

all I have been up to lately is undoing past owner stupid stuff...... there was a wire that went from behind the radio down to the fuse panel..... neither end was connected to anything , so I removed it... also replaced missing screws in the dash..... another thing they did was spraypaint the top of the core support black.... they didnt even mask anything off, painted over the emissions sticker , rust and everything.... I was able to clean off the stickers with acetone... then I masked them off and sanded and repainted the core support with some spray paint that closely matches the color of the truck.....not to mention all the stupid bumper stickers and such that were on the truck...

I've found Krylon Almond paint is a close match to mine, looks like the same color as yours

decided I didnt like the bling bling mexi chrome wheels, so I changed it to way more rat rod look.... i also took the fender emblems off and some anti chip thing that looked like crap and to further the rat rod look I installed this

a long overdue update..... found a stash of emblems one day while we were going through stuff downsizing..... decided to use this one but it broke when I tried to install it so I used this one instead also started stripping rust off the frame and painting it cut 12" off the antenna and topped it with this better pics of the ranger at this point
