Stripped to bare metal? I’m going back and forth on cleaning up my Ranger for a full paint job and honestly with the tear down and engine swap already staged, the only thing stopping me is the price.
I have a boss 302 and a 4 speed toploader I’m putting in it. It’s far from original with some very strip heavy modifications to the engine but I might as well use it. It was drag raced in Sweden in the 80s. Guy I bought it from said they had revd it to 10500.. I’m not sure about that but he was an old race engine builder so not impossible.

Good times. Have a write up of what you're up to with the drivetrain on this one?
