      Rangers used to be larger. They haven't always been the little baby trucks they are nowadays.

    • @DemolitionJake
      @DemolitionJake 3 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      They started to shrink some time in the 80s I believe, if you look at a Ranger from let's say '73 you'd find a full size Ford.

    Love these old trucks and this channel. As far as color & paint , I'm almost certain that the two tones were completely covered in one color then came back and painted over that color with the 2nd color / tone.

    I just can’t recall the last time I’ve seen a 72 Ford pickup with air conditioning. That has to be a very rare option or aftermarket add on. Such a nice truck with a TON of potential with a great 390 engine. She’s a goodin & She was built for pullin and keep ya cool too. That was rare back in 72!

It beat pullin' those Big Kirbys out for such a Small job.

    Man did that thing smooth out to sound sweeter'n apple pie. Real stoked about the bodywork and interior condition too - someone really loved that truck once. Uncle Rick scored himself a good'n for sure. Great work, Puddin'. Good to see another old beast headed back to the road where she belongs - and even though I'm a GM bloke first and foremost, a win is a win and a classic is a classic when all's said and done.

      @KiwiStag74 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was a GM bloke in a family of Ford fanatics. Dad had so many different Fords over the years and I was out in the garage helping him modify most of them. First rebuild I did that wasn't a lawnmower was a Ford 711M crossflow engine - at the age of 13. Ran well too. My voice broke when I cussed at it a couple of times (when the old man wasn't around of course) when I reground the valve seats, so I remember it quite well.
      Finally brought home my first GM after 5 years of pretending and thought the old man was gonna throw up on it! He treated my "disloyalty" like I was coming out the closet or something. Conversation went pretty similar to how I've heard it happens too - "How can you like GM when there are so many good looking Fords that have been in your life? Hell - you even BUILT an engine for one and owned a couple more! Don't expect me to like what you're doing, boy. Not sure as I want you to bring it round here either - what will the neighbours think?"
      Sure as I am sitting here though, he took one drive of it and then every now and again would steal my keys, or I'd catch him looking at it with a pensive expression. He eventually owned several and never bought a Ford again. You could say he learned the error of his ways! Strange how things happen sometimes.
      I do love that yellow truck though. She looked and sounded real good and to be honest, I'd be happy calling it my own.

    I think the paint on the B pillars and top was to match a camper that rode in the bed during it’s early life. Dad had a 73 Super Camper Special with a 460 V-8 and C6 transmission. When I was a teenager I was useless. I stole it outta the yard one day while dad was at work and tore a farmer’s cornfield all to pieces with it. It’s one of those stupid things that I did that I was so ashamed of when I finally grew into a man. Dad lived to be 82 and every once in a while he’d mention it and laugh.

    Some of those camper specials had a longer wheel base. They moved the rear axle back further to help with weight distribution

    The top was probably white, most of them were. That is a nice truck, glad to see you get her running again. With a new tank and a little more work, that one would do anything you need a truck to do for way less money than a newer one.
