'71 Ranger in Classic Truck trends Mag.

Post by cobraF100 »

This is a Very Nice '71.

There's just something about this Two Tone color I like....

I'm going to email Classic Truck trends Mag and see if I can get some Contact info and try to get the owner to come by and tell us more about his Truck.

That is the exact paint scheme and color my truck is supposed to be! I still have the green dash and green door panels also. You can see the original paint in some spots on the inside of my fenders. I LIKE IT!!

Cobraf100, what issue is that article in?

Yeah, that is a nice truck. I like the headliner he left in it :D
Don't really like the wheel and tire combo, but that's just me. I was going to paint mine that same color too. Although I still like it, I'm now leaning towards a more custom white/gun metal pearl combo.

That is one beautiful truck....It looks like it has the original interior(except the headliner) and the factory stereo...But,I gotta say this,and I don't mean to offend anyone,but those are the gaudiest,tin foil-looking,out-of place rims I've ever seen on a vehicle...It's like putting a fright-wig on Brittany Spears...They may look allright on a lowered,tubbed,pro-street truck,but on that truck???....I'd have put some period area mags on it...Cragars...Americans....or smoothies like Lee likes so much...
This is the point...I'm....talking about everybody! I'm talking about form! I'm talking about content! I'm talking about interrelationships! I'm talking about God, the devil, hell, heaven!!!! Do you understand???? Finally!!!!

I agree Joe Kriston. But I also hate those tires. If you want a performance tire, put them on a performance car! Reminds me of all the bling bling suburbans and Hummers I see around. Can't wait for that fad to die out.
