Michelle, sorry I lost your email address. I am a guide in Arizona so things have been nuts for me. I think you wanted more pictures of my old ranger? I am trying to locate and original picture of it in early 65 I know I have seen it some where. I will be starting work back on it in February puttin...

All Right Michelle! At this point, I only have pictures of pieces/parts and disassembly, most of which are on the "Projects and Builds" page. One of these fine days, in the (hopefully) not too distant future, I can load some pictures of my '66 Ranger. I do have a lot of pictures of individ...

If you own a Ranger or just like them please read this. I have dug out my Ranger Registry spread sheet and updated it a bit. If you own a Ranger and are not on the list get the info to me. Please look over the list and if you know of a truck that is not on the list please get the information on that...

About ten years ago, we went to a "SAAC Does Vegas" Open Track / Car Show / Factory Tour at Las Vegas Motor Speedway and the Shelby Factory. It was really cool getting to be on the track at the same time as a lot of vintage Shelby Iron (and Aluminum) and then getting to rub elbows with the...

Yup, I put one of these conversion kits into my '65 Mustang quite a few years ago and have been really happy with it.

After "sawing" nearly through the old bushings and pivot shaft from many years of use/abuse, the conversion sure made both the brake and clutch pedals work better than new.

more high build primer. next block out will be to 220, http://i1280.photobucket.com/albums/a489/CoastieReid/Shipwrecked/Body%20work/C8868C00-9FDB-4008-8EF6-C20580E93DE4_zpswevcneff.jpg if any of you see Facebook trading post- I had this set made for my truck. cost 60.00 but its custom for my vehicl...

What's winter... LOL!

I know one of my trucks came with 235/75-15 tires on it, but these are the modern radial equivalents of the old bias ply tires. Both www.tires.com and www.tirerack.com have tire size calculators that you can use to compare overall diameters, section widths, etc... That way you can find which tires w...

Thanks for the tip!

I started working on cleaning up that area as well since I was working around there.

So far I have found only two little spots of surface rust where the filler had lifted slightly up from the metal.

Is that self etching primer that you used?

Thanks!

Some questions based on these photos... First, what prep and then what type of seam sealer/filler is recommended for the seam around the top of the cab? Second, I finally gotten all the road grime/grease/etc cleaned off of the bottom of the bed, and now I think I am seeing the original factory prime...

They are also different length for left side and right side of the truck due to the cable pivot mount being off center as well.

I had one of mine froze-up from broken wire strands internally and had to order a new one from O'Reilly's.

That is how I found out about the different lengths side to side.

Thanks guys, and yes, I am looking to see how the small spring on the clutch fork attaches to the pivot. Does it go behind the pivot? Now that I have pulled the boot off, I can see much better inside the clutch fork opening. My pivot looks riveted on, so it must be original. And I see the two small...

ICE: I think you are referring to the wrong spring in your picture.

Do you have an exploded view of the bell housing / clutch fork pivot / clutch fork assembly?

I think that is where the missing clip/spring is at.

I think you are referring to the small "wire" spring that retains the clutch fork to the pivot inside the bell housing. I do not have a picture at hand but I am pretty sure it attaches through the two small holes in the clutch fork and then around a protrusion on the pivot piece inside the...

I agree that it has the early sbf firing order, but I do not think it is an efi lower as there do not appear to be an injector bungs on it. The round ports "might" indicate it was used with Boss 302 type of heads (Cleveland heads used on small blocks in '69 and '70). I seem to recall some ...

David: Welcome to the group!

Where abouts in AZ are you.

I am located in Tucson and have a '66 shortbed 352/automatic CC Ranger that I have in a bazillion pieces in my garage being "restored".

Finally got the rear frame cleaned up and repainted, along with new bushings and liners in the springs. Also cleaned up and repainted the rear axle assembly. Next step is to put new brakes onto the rear axle, then the back end is completed to this point... https://s20.postimg.org/rm5pxorhp/DSC01950....

Here are a few new / updated project pictures... https://s20.postimg.org/co0mp3zn1/DSC01915.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/b7p46ywq5/DSC01913.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/novru4rvx/DSC01924.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/viwdfizot/DSC01933.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/rnxkqp5wt/DSC01934.jpg https://s20.post...

Now I think I can keep everything together in one topic instead of two or more... Continuing with more pictures, once I remember how to do that again. https://s20.postimg.org/slhs4slkd/DSC01428.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/xmp665t0t/DSC01431.jpg https://s20.postimg.org/6q56xua7h/DSC01433.jpg https://...
