hey everybody, just checking in to say hey. i recently purchased a totalled 2005 F-150 crewcab lariat 4x4 that im currently re-building. ive been driving rangers for about 10 years now but it was time to upgrade to a bigger truck and the new F-150 was the only logical choice for me. anyways, this seems like a great site and im looking forward to spending some time here and learning a few things! here's a couple pics of my truck just for fun..

when i bought it..




what it looks like right now..



and one of my ranger for good measure..

 

Welcome. Nice find. I like that ranger also. Keep us posted and can't wait to see the finish product.

 

friggin sick ranger dude!
GL with the rebuild. hope it rides and feels like a new one.

 

Throw the 5.4 in that Ranger.. its possibly the nicest Ranger i have ever seen!..

 

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little. Such a nice truck, must have been a major kick in the ***** for the prior owner.

Welcome to the forum.

 

thanks for the welcome guys! yeah it is sad to see a truck look like that but one persons loss is anothers gain. its nice to bring them back to life again so they dont spend the rest of there life in a junk yard. my ranger looked very much the same as the F-150 when i bought it.

 

wow.. that is a nice ranger!! how much did u get that truck 4 w/ all that damage

 

thanks! i got the F-150 for $5500 out the door. id geuss ill have about $2500 in parts and materials into it to fix it.

 

Welcome to the forum! Good luck on the new rebuild, nice job on the Ranger.

 

wow thats awesome.
