What is a sky ranger? A ranger with more than 40" of lift? :dntknw:
Its a Ranger Convertible, there is one on Phoenix Craigslist. Key words;89 Ford Pickup conv. Roadster. Would some one go to the site and post up the pix.
It's really a sweet truck at a nice price too!

eighteen of these were custom built by a custom body builder as in the Dodge Dakoda pick up roadster. This one was called 'Sky Ranger'.They had hoped to build them for Ford, but never panned out.So this is one of '18' This is no butcher job, as the lower body channels, along W/ the 'A' pillers were reinforced, making for a tight body, and ez closing doors.I bought it about five years ago & since over time I had an bed off frame paint job, four new tires on 16" Vue alloy wheels, a new top, custom interior, new head lites, tail lites, and most of the chrome trim.I just now replaced the water pump, along W/the thermo fan, complete tune up. You now drive this any where in the USA.It uses no oil & has no nasty leaks. It does have some minor issues which does not affect the running condition.It is a super fun driving truck The only problem might be that when you do drive it, esp with the top down, you will get a lot of attention as I have.I am nearing 70 & my wife & I agreed to sell some of my toys. This is one of them.I want $4.250, which is a lot less than I spent on it.I can e-mail specific photos to a serous buyer.I will not accept any kind of out of state checks. Bank wire service is good, along W/a legit escrow service. Thanx Z zahnfft@yahoo.com 623-332-1028 ( this is an AZ truck)


I just emailed the guy about this truck, I'm quite interested, and in any case, theres some pictures for you all.

My credo
Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
That's a cool truck. Good luck, if you're going for it Shoeboy (and thanks for posting the listing, guys).

Shoeboy, Did you go look at this Ranger? Curious if you did as to the condition or if you found any major issues with it.

Well Shoeboy, I just realized from your profile you are in Calgary. I guess you probably haven't physically looked at this truck. Has anyone else been over to look at the truck? Just curious if anyone has seen it and has any info on its condition, etc.

Thanks!
