  First off, when I bought the truck in 2003, it was a Mazda B4000. I didn't like the Mazda look at all, so I completely swapped everything over to make it a 'Ranger.' Being as they are both the same truck, but only difference is appearance. Also, after I bought the truck we found out that it had a salvage title from the owner before us from a wreck that he/she was in. But there was NO FRAME DAMAGE AT ALL.

  The truck has never been smoked in since I've owned it.
  
  As with any used vehicle, there are always things that would need to be done (nothing major for this truck thank goodness).
  *The clock spring needs to be replaced (controls the cruise control and horn $50 from Ford & is easy to install).
  *It's lacking a front bumper, but I didn't put one on because I think that the tires may rub.
  *It has a scratch (you can see in the photos) on the drivers side door from when I took it to Atlanta to get the suspension work done on it, the trailer that it was on had little side rails and when I was pulling the truck off, I got too close and yea.
  *On the drivers side corner of the bed, there is a little corner missing (barley noticeable from the outside) from hitting a HUGE pot hole.
  *It's currently missing a drivers side fender, but the truck will come with that along with 2006 Ranger fender badges. It's missing because I'm still trying to find a white Ranger fender from the "Ranger Conversion".
  *The truck was also originally 2WD, well since I've added the 4WD front end from a '82 Wagoneer, I still have not completely finished the 4WD. I have below some links for a guy that turned his 2WD into a 4WD for cheap and looks fairly easy.

  *The truck doesn't have ABS anymore from the solid axle swap, but it does stop damn well for 41's.
  *The Mazda cab's have this 'molding' around the outside windows that I took off and was going to weld the holes up, but decided not too. But my mom (the cleaning freak that she is) threw them away. You can find that at almost any junk yard, but we don't really have that many junk yards around here.
  *I took the front 2 door speakers out because I sometimes during the summer ride around with out the front 2 doors. They can both be removed in less than 10 min. and can be easily installed as well. (kinda like a JEEP & I can put back in if wanted)
  
  I currently drive the truck to and from work and school everyday with no problems at all. Now for the good stuff. :)
  The truck runs and drives perfect. Last week I had the following done to my truck since I work at a 'shop'... *Transmission Flush
  *Coolant Flush
  *Brake System Flush
  *Power Steering Flush
  *Differential Flush
  *New Window Motors (they are very fast compared to stock)
  *The truck has power everything if I forgot to mention that.
  *Tires are inflated to 27 psi with Nitrogen
  *Tires are less than 8 months old with around 10k miles on them.
  *Wheels are less than 8 months old as well.
  *Red top Optima battery is less than 3 months old.
  *New gauges and chrome bezel to go around the gauges are going to be installed at my work soon.
  *The rear windows were tinted less than 6 moths ago and have a lifetime warranty on them for turning purple. (along with the front windows as well.)
  *Rear brakes are less than 4 months old.
  But again, there are NO engine/transmission/major problems at all, just the small stuff I listed above.
  
  Also, all the suspension work was done in early January and not including wheels and tires, I spent right at 4k just in parts to build the truck to what it is now.
  Any more questions just give me a call anytime. But you really are getting a good deal, I'm not out to screw anyone over AT ALL. And I'm willing to deliver or meet half way too! 912.713.6773
