What's up? I do not own a ranger right now. Right now my project is an 89 Mazda B2200. But I am starting to look for a ranger to build for my oldest daughter. I have 3 daughters and I plan on building mini trucks for each one of them.

yeah i have a 5 yr old, 3 yr old and a 1 yr old. i am thinking about a ranger, yota, and a nissan hardbody. but seeing as how long it is taking on my mazda i kinda figure i should start on theirs as soon as possible. if i can find some really good deals i can pick them up and get started on buying parts for them and then all at once build it. i love this hobby, i just wish i had a few friends locally that loved it too.

^^^i dont get it


so they are still pretty young so you will have plenty of time to build them. actually it will bei nteresting to see how much the MT scene will change in the next 10 years. by the time you finish one of the trucks we might be seeing trucks that are nothing that we can even imagine now.

a Yota? what year? a buddy of mine has one already bagged with a nasty 4 link (race car 4 link) that he's selling...it needs some work, but it sounds like that's right up your alley! the body is completely straight and it's pretty clean (still has a functional tailgate, still has door handles, etc.)



I personally would re-bag the front. whoever bagged it before he got it put ball joint spacers on it (NOT very safe...that's olllllllld school)

it's like a '92 body style. all it needs to run is a wiring harness and probably a fuse or two. he's asking around 1000 for it.
