My credo
If you don't have time to do it right will you have time to do it over?
This is my 93 Ranger. I wanted a 83-88 short box but I bought a 93 long box because it wasn't rusty. Not rusty trumps all other considerations in New England. It had been a drag truck and was gutted out when I bought it.

One of my former techs gave me the 351 out of his 95 F150 because it had a valve train noise that he couldn't find. I rebuilt the 351 and a C4 out of an 81 Cougar that I 302/ T5 swapped and stuck them in it.

My 93 f-150 is rust free, why do you think its a good color and the 351 is the strongest and best engine for in those trucks =)

You did not even notice what ?

Please do not talk about fighting even jokingly !!!. Who said i will fight ya for it ? it shows it was under bobbywalters comment but he said rusty said it ? Why do you love the marauders. what does crown jewel of the panther cars mean.
first...

we are shit talking and still showing respect and admiration and appreciation for those vehicles.

men ....sometimes have to fight. just the way it is. gonna have that sometimes.

maurauders.....

well...those awesome cars...are like square bodies.....older trucks from..gm ford or mopar.....if you dont love them....your probably going to have to fight...to keep your man card, because we are pulling your man card....because we sense you are broken....and your current 150 is in that club....just owning it is a highlight on your mancard...even if you are a woman.




dibs on the maurauder....

i was just jesting...that if you were to mysteriously disappear or die....its mine. its just letting you know we really like the maurauder....

Like I told you when I rejected BOTH of your reports of fighting... these two have known each other for 20 plus years and it was all in fun.

So please... just put it behind you and just enjoy the site and comraderie we all have here.

Thank you Gary.

I understand it was all in fun now and as of this message it is put behind me and will continue enjoying this site... what does comraderie mean.

I just don't like fighting or joking about fighting.

Your Welcome Uncle Gump Dude.

Does it have the manual or electric shift 4x4? The electric shift system is garbage.
