67F100.JPG
I have been looking for an older truck on ebay and craigslist but of course the only ones I saw in descent shape were a 1000 miles from Il. for good reason. Then one day I was driving through town and saw an older Ford setting in front of a repair shop owned by a buddy of mine. I asked him about it and he said he was working on it for a friend and it was for sale. I said I'm interested, he said you should be and that set things in motion. So I bought a 67 Ranger with a 240 and automatic. Haven't gotten it home yet to do closer inspection on everything but it came from Oklahoma to Il. and I'm told it hasn't been in the snow at all. Looking underneath I believe it. It's very clean and very straight. I have already learn a lot of valuable information on this site. Please keep up the good work.We're new
