Yesterday my 2000 Ranger was picked up & is officially gone. At my ever-increasing age (now 67 Years Old) Since my hips & back have been bothering me my days of doing large jobs on vehicles is coming to an end. We sold our 99 Explorer Sport & now the Ranger is gone too. I am trying to get the Mustang running so I can enjoy it for a few years. Both my wife & I are semi-retired only working part time, she has a 2021 Bronco Sport & I have a 2005 F150 2WD. This last Ranger was my third one & I was a Ranger owner for about 24 years & enjoyed the smaller pick up. I would have bought another one when my previous one pucked the engine, but I could not find one at a a decent price that was not beat to death.

Sorry for your loss, your 2000 was somewhat of a legend here and you did quite a bit of work on it!

You have a BUNCH of work in that Mustang too. I hope you find the time to get it on the road, if I were a few hundred miles closer I would love to help.

On the Mustang I have to bleed the brakes, get a battery in it & get it running, add hydraulic fluid to the clutch system & bleed it then run it down the street on a test run. Then comes reassembly. Thanks for the offer of help if you were closer but 6 1/2 hours away is a long drive to help.
