I have a 1969 ford ranger that is currently going through a overhaul, we have it torn down to the frame exept for the cab and it is going into the shop to get a 1973 lincolnl continental clip installed(complete front frame and IFS from the front of the truck to the front of the cab). after that i am debating putting it on air bags. and the best part! we have a 4.6L engine out of a 2005 Mustang GT that will be going in it. after all the major fabrication and it runs i want to installl a blow through with 2 or 4 15's. I will post pics a little later especially if anyone is interested ( there are some of my truck already in my gallery

While it has been a while, I have done a few frame-up restorations in my life and know the absolute devil they are to do... And you're taking even that to a different level... You've got a little bit of stubborn in you, good luck in getting it all done, looks like you are coming along good though!

thanx jlaine! it is quite the job but i have some very good help (well there actually teaching me) here some more!!

the rear end set up for the triangulated four link (the bars are getting powder coated) still need some reinforcement but its ready

nice, i didn't think that engine would fit in a ranger... reminds me of the old ford concept ranger "thunderbolt" with a 5.4l supercharged triton V8... looks like quite a task... do you have a projected finish date?
