1988 Ford Ranger 4x4 XLT

Description for Ford Ranger 1988

Amazing condition! Only 65,000 original miles!
This truck runs great, was just smogged, and registration is current. It has a clean title. It was towed behind a motor home most of its life and is super clean!
This is a real collectors item, basically everything is stock and original- It would take very little to restore it to factory condition. The factory dual fuel tank option is very very rare (and very neat!!) The interior is almost like new except for the top of the dash panel has a few cracks. The seats and carpet floor have NO tears or stains!! The windshield and all the windows are original and have NO chips or cracks! I replaced the engine about a year ago with an identical, solid, warrantied engine with excellent compression and only 71,000 miles. I had the timing fine-tuned by a local mechanic professional. It runs great with no issues- handles smooth and solid on the road with no rattles. If you are thinking to restore this pickup, I still have the original engine, which should be rebuildable. Within the last year I also installed new spark plugs and wires, water pump and thermostat, and had the alternator rebuilt. I also added an oil pressure gauge.
It is the XLT trim, which came with power windows and locks!! It has dual fuel tanks which is a rare option. It has the 140 hp, 2.9L V6 engine with a 5-spd manual, which shifts beautifully, and solid front axle 4x4 with lockable Dana hubs. 2-door extended cab, seats 5! Deep metallic blue exterior with blue interior. Comes with spare tire, rubber bed mat, and Century bed topper. Brakes work perfect. Fresh oil & filter change.
As you can see in the pics, the exterior has a few dings, all from the first owner! :( The front bumper is bent slightly and the grill is cracked on one side (probably turned too sharp when towing with motor home) And the driver's side mirror must've gotten bumped too at one point. There's a few scuffs and scratches in the paint but most of it is in beautiful shape! Has the original factory 15" alloy wheels with almost brand new Toyo Open Country 215/75 AT tires on it.
I am sad to sell it- It is so fun to drive, and I doubt I'll ever own another one in this great condition, but I plan to be out of the country for a year, and need to get rid of some hobby cars... :(
I am slightly negotiable on price, but not much - There's similar trucks to this one selling online for betweeen $15-25,000!! Cash only. First come, first serve, so don't wait too long. You won't find another one like it.
