'90 Ford Ranger Turbo....

hey guys, I am selling this one of a kind custom Ford Ranger as the financial crisis hashiznit home with me also. I own to many vehicles and it has started to be a burden on me. My loss is your gain. This truck was started a few years ago, and has now finally been finished. It started life as a basic '90 Ranger long bed that delivered aluminum siding to job sites, but has now turned to hauling something of a different nature.......the Heart and Soul of this Beast is an transplanted 2.3l '86 Mustang SVO engine. It was completely rebuilt to spec about a year and a half, maybe two years ago, along with a new Garrett turbocharger. This was installed in place of the original 2.3 engine and then topped off with an early 4 cyl intake manifold and a Holley 650 carbeurator, which was specifically rebuilt for turbo boost by Williams Bros. of Atlanta, Ga. It also sports an Aeromotive adjustable fuel pressure regulator, a Gillis adjustable turbo boost valve, electronic ignition, Volvo front mount intercooler and Esslinger adjustable cam sprocket. A custom exhaust was built that exits on the right side in front of the rear tire. The transmission has a new clutch/pressure plate/throw out bearing set along with a rebuilt top shifter plate for smooth shifts. The drivetrain has less than 2000 miles on it.
The interior has new, with just installed new carpet, with a 60/40 split bench/bucket seats with a fold down armrest. It has a full complement of guages with tach, temp, oil, volts, and Boost. it also has the provision to add another guage beside the boost guage if needed. Also had the odometer mileage returned to zero as it was starting its "new" life......but was at 76,460 when it was done. I also added a electric fan with a manual on/off switch in the cab in using a factory location and switch, and also added Ranger GT factory fog lamps, wired and switched in a factory location, along with a new shifter .
On the exterior, it has been painted HotRod black with a satin primer finish. Silver and Red accent stripes have been added. It has a COMPLETE new set of Headlights, parking lights and tail lamps. Along with a NEW Ford grille, chrome front bumper and chrome headlight doors. Black shortie anntena, Chrome vent visor shades on the windows, mew wheel lip mldgs and chrome tailgate guard. It also has new take off 2007 17" Mustang GT wheels with P235/55/R17 Pirelli P Zero Nero tires. These barely have the nibs wore off of them. The truck also sports a Ford factory over the rail bedliner in it to keep the bed protected and a new Explorer Limited front valance for the fog lamps.
Overall, this truck starts and runs good. Gets great gas mileage and has power if needed. Fun to cruise in, and really surprises the ones who do not know.....it drives straight and is an original Florida truck. It has a clean CARFAX. When i got the truck is was only started, as i am not the original owner. the only thing finished was the paint and base engine. I have spent many days and nights and much money into this truck, making sure it is right. the only thing i know it really needs is to be professionally tuned for max power/drivability. i would love to keep it, but the reality of life prevents that. Feel free to contact me and ask any questions as i will answer them HONESTLY! or come by and look it over in person. $3500, firm. The truck is at my work, located in Bremen, Ga. my number is 256-223-9809. The best time to talk is from 5 to 9pm central time, but if you leave a message i will get back with you asap. thanks.
