    About ten years ago I was buying some wire wheels from this guy and he had a 35-36 Ford pu off to the side. He said it was some sort of kit he bought and it used everything from a Ford Ranger including the running gear. Looked stock from the outside. I lost interest upon seeing the Ranger conversion and that's all I remember.

  12. I had asked Ryan if he could reopen the Ranger and S10 swaps in the new forum and he has. I guess he posted to it to make sure it was working.

    Cool I believe that a lot of the kits you can buy nowadays are based on stuff we posted here on the HAMB.

    I can’t remember the name of the guy who did the fiberglass truck cabs on Ranger frames, but it as far as I know was a 1 man operation and he passed away, but he was doing it for quite a while.
