    I guess it would be better to have just one car to put all your effort in than trying to spread thin funds over two cars. Why did you chose to keep the 4Dr over the 2Dr?

                I was wondering if you've sold the Mark VII yet. I'd buy it if I was up there, it's pretty sweet.

                    I actually think it looks somewhat decent on there. Of course, I wouldn't think of putting one on my car as long as it makes under 500hp or so ..... :p

                      I actually just started reading this thread today (got thru it all too!) I apologize for going back to some earlier posts, but how good did those ranger wheels fit?
                      I got a set off of a '92 ranger, the ones with the slanted spokes, and it seemed that the bolt pattern was a little different...they'd go on, but I almost had to force them, my bolts were just a shade wider than the holes (or was it the other way around? been a while, can't remember exactly now)
                      Anyway I couldn't use them, the lug nuts wouldn't seat correctly. Did rangers go to a metric pattern after a certain year or something?

                            AOD is a member on her , he hasn't been around in a while. He had a Vic IIRC and he called it "hoodscoop" because he had one on it like that.

                                Anyway Dave, I thought the Ranger wheels looked kinda neat....they were unique.
                                Wish mine hadda worked.
