My '84 LTD had a 2-barrel for some odd reason.

its not as pretty as it use to be.i used it for a parts hauler as well.lets just say the cargo area isnt as clean as it should be.the last thing i hauled in it was the burnt aod out of my bird.dad keeps complaining about the smell.its considerably faded now and has a rear main seal leak.the good news is,it hasnt been wrecked and it has never overheated,to my knowledge anyway.dad said he had to buy a new coil and tfi module for it a couple of weeks ago.one went out and took the other with it.if you are serious or just bord give me a call.check your pm for special instructions.

Well should be easy enough to remove the carpet area and hose it down with some degreaser right? and maybe put a layer of bed liner in it's place.

Well I'd probably set up the rear with some sort of tie-down system with some of the bedliner goop and cover that with a piece of carpet for "general" useage.. The fiancee is bending a bit on her views about wagons. I think in the next week or so the Ranger may be up for sale....

Chuck W, I just noticed you were located in Indy. The firm I work at in Evansville has a branch office in Indy, and I have family in Indy as well. I can't believe I just now noticed that.

I used a fox body ltd 4 door sedan in a demolition derby. Someone gave me the car about a week before the demo derby so I used it. It was previously used as a dirt circle track car so I didn't have to do much to it to get it ready. I lasted about 6 seconds in that thing. Pretty much tore the car in half. Im not sure what year it was but it was pretty much identical mechanically to my 85 bird except it was a 3.8 cfi instead of a 5.0 cfi.
