Since you were the first to say . . . Nice sheet metal 4sure. Someone said if I get some PPG metal conditioner it will help straighten out the pass door.

The pics of junker above were just as a joke, not worth a wooden nickle as a parts truck.

This is the actual truck.

although its not a 66-72 this is one of my other projects . . . Kind of a dream truck with a wait of over 40yrs so far.
Just to give an idea on expected detail for the '69 Ranger . . .
