It'll be sad to see your BII go! Still have your Ranger? Yeah man if you move a bit closer it'll be easier to hit some trails.

Haven't done much on the ranger this winter, but I'll be working on it again soon. I got some new floor mats and added some grip tape to the pedals

Nothing like a matching set... one for the trails and one for the street.

It was cheap.

I found some substantial rust in the windshield/pillar, cab corners, and doors areas on my Ranger, so I started looking for a rust free cab. This ranger was a couple hundred bucks and had a bad engine and transmission. My plan is to get the cab cleaned up and do some body work to get it all perfect, and then swap the cab and finally get my truck painted and apply my factory decals. What's nice about doing it with a second cab is that my truck doesn't have to be out of commission the entire time; I can still use it.

I'll use the bed and frame to make a truck bed trailer that'll match my Ranger.

Nice...

most around here don't get to see much rust free stuff... I'm sure your cab you're replacing is better then most have.

Looking forward to your trailer build too.
