WELL HERES MY STORY. BOUT 4 months ago this guy down the street had a blue truck for sale.1969 ford ranger 390 v8 and highy visable for 1,250. so i called him and said ill give you 1,000 and he said ok ,,, then i called him back in the morning he said he wants to get more for it. so i was bummed and dissapointed, pretty much said oh forget it .... so recently i call him and said ill give u 900, he said sold!!! i was like cool!!! really great shape. some rust here and there but not bad,. motor is rebuilt with 15,000 miles on it, sounds like a monster, its a 390 v8 , i took off the rims., i think im more into the vintage look, so i got some stock for it, interior is great. only issues are front brakes. and walmart guys said it needs balljoints.i wish the guy did oil changed , oils sludged. i cleaned the interioir and man what a pretty truck, if some dude came up and offered me his new car, i would say no....
i think this truck was waiting for me. cars find their owners, i highy beleive in that.
HERES SOME PICS!!! NOT TOO SHABBY FOR 900 U THINK ..

re: HI IM JESSE CALIFORNIA AND JUST GOT A TRUCK/WITH PICS
from NY---I gotta ask 
What is that locking door on passengerside box--did Ford offer gas fillers on either side? Love the old trucks,but limited knowledge
I've had enough and I'm not alone
