as an old guy who LOVED working on cars and trucks, I can appreciate and respect all that you and your dad know- I used to LOVE to fix cars like you do... Of course, my cars were 60's cars- much more simple to diagnose and repair. THANKS for the entertaining and informative video.
Hey I really appreciate you checking out the video! We are thankfully to have so many positive folks like yourself chiming in. I learned most of what I know from guys like you, and then some tricks of my own I develop as I get older. If You ever have any advice for us, pull up a seat by the wood stove and I’ll make the coffee. Haha
I know absolutely nothing about fixing cars but you're videos are great. Entertaining and dumbed down enough that I understand everything going on. Great job!
Thank you so much for checking out the videos! It’s greatly appreciated! I know our camera work isn’t fancy, I just like filming and having a little audience to share things with. 👍🏻
$350 FOR A STICKSHIFT FORD RANGER THAT HAS A TITLE AND ISNT ROTTED OUT is a fucking steal of a deal that bed is worth more than the whole truck alone down here east coast
Sadly, these days, smaller cars and trucks are no longer manufactured, especally regular cab trucks, everything these days has to be 4 door station wagon trucks. Not everybody needs or wants a 4 door station wagon truck when a regular cab truck suites them quite well. And today, with gasoline prices going through the roof, those 4 cylinder engines are fuel efficient and as long as you matain them properly, they will indeed last you a good, long, LONG time. These manufactures of cars and trucks of today need to get back to basics once again, that's what we all nerd to do, get back to basics once again. Personally, I much prefer smaller cars and truck myself to, especally Ford cars and trucks.
Jay , I love how you were stuck at just under 100,000 subscribers for so damn long and now you’ve blown past 100,000!! Good stuff ! Next stop , 125,000.
Bringing that little green ranger back to life looking great and it's also great to see a father and son working together and enjoying themselves working together
Love rangers, It’s always good to see another Ranger get a new release on life especially a rust free one, I’ve got a Vista Blue 2010 Fx4 off-road manual with the 4.0L
Thank you so much for that! I try to just bring you guys along and share things as we go. Not really so much to teach or enlighten. But just share my doings with you. Thank you again!
Rangers are the most reliable smol truck out there, hands down. Fixes are extremely cheap, and the frames and bodies don't rust through like other trucks.
Reminds me of my '95 Ranger. Absolutely optionless. She wasn't quite as rough as this one, but we had our adventures together. It's awesome to see that there's still a few of these among the living. (I put the bigger Explorer rim on mine... so I love that idea)
I’ve been on the lookout for one of these forever lol. I love these little trucks. Hope this one won’t break the bank! And congrats on the 100k subs! You deserve it for sure, you’re one of the best on the platform.
I’ll make you a deal on this one once I’m finished with it! Hopefully have it done before new years! And thank you so much! I’m not in the running for one of the best. But I like to think of myself as more a senior citizen being here since 2011 😂
Love Ford rangers. Daily driver is a 96 XLT with the little jump seats in the back. Has the V6 4.0 engine but it's an automatic. It was my grandpa's truck before he passed and I'll never get rid of it.
Great video. You seem to get some gems. That LA Awesome cleaner and Mean Green cleaner are two of the best out there. Cleaned up n flipped a few houses with my father using those two cleaners. Merry Christmas early
Interesting thing about a lot of fords, the oil pressure "gauge" doesn't have a sending unit. It's just a pressure switch that sends the needle to half scale as long as the pressure is above its threshold. Notice how it just jumps there and doesn't vary with rpm
I really love the Rangers with the step side beds. To me that makes for a sexy truck. And for $350.00 and it runs? Hell yeah!!! I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat! I used to own a 99 Ranger 4x4 with the extended cab and step side bed. That little truck was a tank I can tell you! I owned it for 7 years till the 3.0 blew a head gasket. I was going to do the engine work till I looked at the frame and noticed a huge rot hole in the frame so I got rid of it. I'd love to get another one. I miss my truck.
I'm cold too woowhee! Nice build, I love it. I purchased my Mazda6 for $220 and she's coming along great (Bernie's cleaner really helped out a lot with the engine and the fuel management system). Love these finds. Keep em coming 💪😈
Well, I'm late to the party it seems. I miss my Ranger but I don't miss the problems that came with it lol. I currently daily my 1965 Ford F-250, big mistake taking it on a road trip though. I'm currently at a rest stop in Ames Iowa, 300 miles from home, waiting on parts to arrive so I can rebuild the brakes in the middle of this parking lot. Yay.
Great video as usual, Jay. I have a ranger with the duratec 2.3/manual. Bought it with 113k and discovered it burned oil shortly after. It threw a rod at 170k. I put a low mileage engine in it (66k) and this engine has held up much better after putting nearly 100k additional miles on it, but i agree: lima 2.3s are less problematic. Also, the coolant/heater hoses are overcomplicated and in awful locations for a Ranger. Cant wait to see part 2!
Merry Christmas, Jay! I'm definitely a Ford Ranger fan for sure! Mine is a 2000 extended cab with a 3.0 V6. This has been a good engine at 360,000 miles and still going strong! This one is looking great and I know it will sell. I appreciate all you are doing to get this little truck back to life!
Thanks for the video. You gave this one a lot of love and she’s grateful. The motor sounds good. I don’t know how is in your area but here in NJ and NY manual transmission is not very popular. Not everyone knows how to drive it and the ones that do rather not, too much traffic.
Where are you finding these!?! You should see what FB Marketplace looks like out here in Cali... I bet you they'd be trying to sell that ranger for $2500...
Truck's just fine. ;) The pliers are looking worse and they still work. That truck will probably take good care of you with some TLC. Doin' good work there!
I bought a $350 Sentra out of someone's front yard three years ago, it ran and had a clear title. Still driving it. Most expensive repair so far? I just put new tires on it. Had to bang out some dents with a hammer and a dowel rod. PDR rules! ;) Love this kind of stuff.
Nice wprk my dude. Projects like this is getting done more and more, Generally they are older, mid 60's-Mid 80's cars and trucks but hey a good project is a good project. I've always drove Classic Cars, Presently my Daily is a 73 Buick Regal but I just bought a 85 Mustang to drive while I did some updates on my Regal and then sell the Mustang but I'm starting to change my mind, The Mustang is in such great shape I thinking I'm going to keep it and drive it and make the Regal a complete tear down and long term project.
I would totally attempt this if I had access to a lift or even a garage for that matter lmao. Love workin on cars and seeing it come together. Good stuff man!
Well he was possibly HVAC but the little 1/2 dollar you found is 3/4” or 1” knock out and there were a bunch of Romex staples on the floor. I think he or she was an electrician.
I got a 03 2.3 Ranger and my temp gauge always reads cool. They have a electric thermostat which are known to fail and fall apart. If you have enough coolant I'd check the thermostat, especially if it had water not coolant in it and it ices up from cool weather, it will break it..
Uhh… is that it? I mean I love the old pushrod 4.0 too, but… Nothing else to add this time? No friend, cousin, neighbor, coworker, sister-in-law, or substitute teacher who use to own one? …. I was waiting to see what you had this time 😅
@@MXguy95 It can be a pain , I had red squirrels in my HVAC box on a Suzuki Grand Vitara plow truck.. smells horrible.. was 2 dead baby red squirrels in the nest !
Hey Jay! Haven't been on the TubeYous in a long while, and lost all the history of watched videos. For tbe life of me i couldn't rembee the name of your chsnnel, and then boom! Algorithms brought ya back. Ive enjoyed all your cold starts, etc. i am also a Toyota fan, so all your yoda vids are fun. I will subscribe now, so i can watch all your content again. Cheers from 🇨🇦
Good stuff. If you're pulling the seats to pressure wash them pull that carpet too. Even replacement carpet might surprise you and carpet can flip a sale faster than the bleach in the transmission to swell those seals! Don't do that.
I’m going to try to shampoo the car in the truck. Once vacuumed out it was surprisingly nice! All the floor mats saved it. The seats will need to be pulled and power cleaned but that’s the extent of it I hope. Heck even the headliner is mint!
@@MXguy95 Good deal on it being nice under those mats! Can't wait to see the finished product and the headliner being mint is like 20 HP and 2 grand extra!
A worn but not crusty Ranger is a heckuva find. Especially at that price! If you kept her you could have a matched pair with your MR2. If you still have that. At least it looks "close" to that green.
I still have the Mr2, she’s pretty much put up for the winter. Thought about letting it go to have some cash to pump into other endeavors, but I can’t. It was my brothers, and I wouldn’t find another one the way I wanted it for the deal he gave me on it
@@MXguy95 I regret selling mine years ago. Same color, had the caramel colored vinyl top and leather. Went through 2 sets of tires in 40k just because I liked to go through every twisty part without braking. It' was like an adult go cart. No other car like it. Not fast. Fun as hell though.
Just recently came across your channel and I am loving it. Compared to most other mechanic style content creators, yours has the best realistic feel and that you are just one of us, a regular dude. Other channels just feel like they are acting like they are part of the majority but really arent. Definitely enjoying your videos. You are a relatable to us working men. Question though, that cleaning solution you use to clean the insides, is it purchased or home made?
I have a 1992 I have owned since 2000. 247k 2.3, manual. Thing still does not burn oil. But it has rusted out the brake lines twice and it even rusted out the battery cables twice and one of the alternator bolts rusted off, mechanically is bullet proof like you said. Currently one of the shock towers rusted out and the floor pans are now gone. But the parts are sooooooo cheap ! I think I bought all new floor pans, shock towers, and radiator support for about $400. Also...............yes my light is completely gone.
Great job on the Ranger. Have you ever replaced the bulb in the third brake light on a 94 D21 Hard Body Nissan? I don’t see any screws around the red lense
Jay, are you going to do a follow up video on the Ranger? I'd like to see it all painted up right and with new tires and wheels. Just found your channel. New sub.
You’ve had a lot of Reynders on your channel out of the years I have watched, Plus I remember the one you saved from the junkyard five or six years ago, including your grandfathers, which I’ve wondered if you still had!
My toxic trait is watching this and then immediately searching Facebook marketplace for a cheap ranger thinking that I could just fix it up real quick
Same and i never fixed anything on a car except zip tying a broken front bumper
I like using self tapers for grills
😂
Lmao😂😂🤦🏾♂️you and me both
Hey go for it! you would be surprised how much is on youtube to fix cars. alot of it is common sense

$350 FOR A STICKSHIFT FORD RANGER THAT HAS A TITLE AND ISNT ROTTED OUT is a fucking steal of a deal that bed is worth more than the whole truck alone down here east coast
This is the type of Ranger I want! 4 banger, 2WD, 5 speed tranny, regular cab, XLT trim. These are AWESOME lil twucks!
Get it with the other engine though!
Yep. Had a 94 I drove for awhile. I can't recall ever having anything major go wrong
Got that exact truck with 670k miles on it. Original 2.3. 1996. No problems if you take care of it.

You ain’t no stranger that’s a ford effin ranger
SON OF A GUN. It’s a Ford ranger 😂
ford fnin ranger right there. yeah that's my truck

Gotta love our optionless rangers. 240k miles and she’ll go forever
I love this stuff. Nothing fancy, just honest work and wisdom. Keep it up.
I appreciate that! I try to keep it simple
I learned something today! That's the first time I've ever seen the magnet trick to reset a gauge. Cool!
Man I love the Ford ranger it's a good ole truck nice in small and you really brought it back to life I really enjoy this channel I'm hooked now
I’ve been on the lookout for one of these forever lol. I love these little trucks. Hope this one won’t break the bank!

If you can get a 1st gen Tacoma instead they’re way better. The Mazda rangers aren’t nearly as good as the old Mitsubishis
There's some at my local scrapyard
@@BuddyTheWolfYT you can get them in running condition from scrap yards??!
@@ItsOnagy Probably not running but can be again...
Love Ford rangers. Daily driver is a 96 XLT with the little jump seats in the back. Has the V6 4.0 engine but it's an automatic. It was my grandpa's truck before he passed and I'll never get rid of it.
U guys are awesome 👍🤜👊🤛👍💪👌🤙🇺🇸
Would be great to see more of the actual work and not just the results. Love bringing these older cars back to life to serve a purpose.
yeah I think that truck has some history because the fender emblem says XLT but the windows are roll up, so looks like the doors were changed.
showing the magnet trick definitely deserved a like on the video. Good stuff
algorithm brought me here, but the quality of work and the proper amount of color commentary kept me.. you got a new subscriber.
fantastic video!
My first ride was a ranger, same color, I love those little trucks, def on my wishlist to find a used one near me, keep on rocking man
I learn something new almost every video keep up the good work.
That’s awesome! Glad you got something useful from it!
And just like that, the Danger Ranger is no longer dangerous. 👍👍 Good work, Jay!
Got rid of a 2006 Ranger a week ago the frame was trashed.Copart bought it.
1 of the best trucks I ever owned.
I’m glad I ran across this video, my ranger has been sitting for about 2 years now. I think I need to get her going again
Jay you deserve way more subscribers - I put you up there with Vice Grip Garage. We fans enjoy what you put out there for us.
This was too easy. That magnet over the oil pressure gauge is insane! How did you pick up stuff like that? These videos are priceless.
Just one of those things, a trick I was taught years ago and never forgot about! Use it all the time
Great video. You seem to get some gems. That LA Awesome cleaner and Mean Green cleaner are two of the best out there. Cleaned up n flipped a few houses with my father using those two cleaners.
Merry Christmas early
Love the content, thanks Jay. Peace
Thank you so much!
Love watching your videos Jay. Been watching for many years. Great job on this truck and will be great to get an update on it.
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Interesting thing about a lot of fords, the oil pressure "gauge" doesn't have a sending unit. It's just a pressure switch that sends the needle to half scale as long as the pressure is above its threshold. Notice how it just jumps there and doesn't vary with rpm
i bet they do it that way so people wont bother them with the oil pressure dropping, like they used to do when cars came with vaccum gauges
I really love the Rangers with the step side beds. To me that makes for a sexy truck. And for $350.00 and it runs? Hell yeah!!! I would have snapped that up in a heartbeat!

I’m super jealous of people like you that can fix stuff
It was just a lot of fun seeing you tinker on a $350 vehicle, and that one was as good a find as ever! Great job!
Pretty new to your channel Jay. The content you put up is fantastic. So happy i subscribed here. Keep up the amazing work!
Welcome! And thank you so much for stopping by to check out the videos. I appreciate that a lot!
Just found this video, I like the way its done but wouldn't of mind seeing you put the seals in. The way you work is easy to fallow.
I'm cold too woowhee! Nice build, I love it. I purchased my Mazda6 for $220 and she's coming along great (Bernie's cleaner really helped out a lot with the engine and the fuel management system).
Love these finds.
Keep em coming 💪😈
The truck needs a little love but you did damn good for the price!
Some guys have all the luck! Great find Jay.
Just keep my eyes peeled for those crusty gems no one else wants to mess with!

Looks like a nice little truck...great you brought it back to life.
Truck sure seems to run good! Nice save!
Nice video. Don’t forget the headlights spruced up. Looking forward to video to on this Rager. Good job.
Great video,subscribed last month. FYI I could hear the audio fine with the heater on. No need to freeze!!😂
Good to know! …. I’m not sure I ever went back to filter it 😅
i want to get a used little pickup, Rangers are one of the ones
I like, so this was a great video to watch.looking forward to part 2
What a beautiful truck. Nice work.
Thanks 👍
That’s a nice little truck. Little more ❤ & it could be a good keeper.
That magnet trick is slick never seen that before
Where are you finding these!?! You should see what FB Marketplace looks like out here in Cali... I bet you they'd be trying to sell that ranger for $2500...
Truck's just fine. ;) The pliers are looking worse and they still work. That truck will probably take good care of you with some TLC. Doin' good work there!

I'm very impressed with this restoration.
Can't wait for part 2. Another great video 👍 👍
Gathering up some more parts asap! Thank you for watching
Awesome video, great work! Wish I could get you guys to fix my cars 😂

Well he was possibly HVAC but the little 1/2 dollar you found is 3/4” or 1” knock out and there were a bunch of Romex staples on the floor. I think he or she was an electrician.

Lot of memories with it 😅

Sounds like a good time! But we’ve got eyes on another car, and just need to move this one along to get closer to the goal
Very nice little rig!!
ok now u r my favorite youtuber 😍😍
I got a pretty good running ranger for 500 a couple of months ago. the deals are out there, the problem is, you got to know a bunch of old people..
I have a blue 99 ranger and it was the pieces missing on the cab too. I think maybe used to have a light bar or something on top.
I would say, you stole that truck 😊!! Mic'2024
I have a 1992 I have owned since 2000. 247k 2.3, manual. Thing still does not burn oil. But it has rusted out the brake lines twice and it even rusted out the battery cables twice and one of the alternator bolts rusted off, mechanically is bullet proof like you said. Currently one of the shock towers rusted out and the floor pans are now gone. But the parts are sooooooo cheap ! I think I bought all new floor pans, shock towers, and radiator support for about $400. Also...............yes my light is completely gone.
workin on a project car with your dad, thats awesome!
Hey nice video I have a 2010 ranger xlt its blue I like seeing people thar care about these trucks like myself
Great job guys!
Liquid laundry detergent will clean the interior very well ! Even the cheap soap will work.
They make a vinyl floor cover for that gen you can pull at a junkyard no problem, like it a lot better than the carpet personally
I did that on the last ranger resto. Think I’m just going to clean the carpet on this one.
You can never go wrong with a Ford Ranger Jay! Its actually a nice looking Ranger just needs a little paint
Thanks! Like I mentioned , hoping to paint match the fender best I can, and overal just make it easier on the eyes. Here’s hoping !
Great job on the Ranger. Have you ever replaced the bulb in the third brake light on a 94 D21 Hard Body Nissan? I don’t see any screws around the red lense
gauge magnet genius! Nice work!
God damn son of a gun! Thats a mother fuckin Ford Ranger!!
The magnet trick to fix the oil pressure gauge was great!
Jay, are you going to do a follow up video on the Ranger? I'd like to see it all painted up right and with new tires and wheels. Just found your channel. New sub.
Nice Work 👍🇬🇧
Good little rig.
Can still hear you even when you have the salamander running brother 👍✌️
You’ve had a lot of Reynders on your channel out of the years I have watched, Plus I remember the one you saved from the junkyard five or six years ago, including your grandfathers, which I’ve wondered if you still had!
10:28 was there no taillight harness you had to disconnect I’m about to do a fuel pump job on a 1997 2.3
