Got an extra set of front fenders ???

Interesting problem.


I would say Go For It.
Worst case,you have to rework the doors.

if i wind up buying the truck i will have the fenders and hood parts that i wont be using.

 

[ratrod48]

went and looked at the truck today. body only but in very good shape for around here. probably gonna buy it and just work the cab over to have it match the doors. now i need to plan the rest of the build. ford power on a ranger frame or build my own 2x3 tubing frame. low, loud and fast. (hopefully)

Stock Ranger frames are pretty ugly,if you are not planning fenders.
