Hey, looks good!
Getting the swap done is one thing, then it's doing all the little tiddy up work to really make it look nice. Think I remember seeing that you are only 18/19. You've done really good. Pat on the back to you.

Ill be 19 next saturday. Thanks for the compiments. Me and my buddy did every single thing except cut the driveshaft down. Had that done for obvious reasons. Next were doing his mustang. We already gutted it. Putting a 393 stroke with afr's and a powerglide. Should be a nasty little ride.
good job man yeah I was 19 when I finished my ranger too. Just a question though, did everyone you know give you as much crap about not being able to do it as they did to me? cause I was getting that all the time haha showed them!!

I was 30 when I did my conversion and my dad and everybody else gave me grief saying I was just wasting money and I was never going to get it to work. I think the thing that made them say that was when I unravelled my wiring harness and started splicing the Ranger connectors to the Mustang harness. The number of wires in a harness was just too overwhelming for any of them to believe I'd ever get to work, well alone driveable in the truck, and looking decent. But I did...and I drive it every day to work with pride. In fact, the wire looming work ended up so nice that most people look into the engine bay and they never mention the harness or even realize that it has been modified. The sad part is the wiring harness was probably THE most difficult and time consuming part of the swap for me and it's the part that gets the least amount of attention. Everybody that stares into the engine bay just focuses on the engine, how tight some of the fitment is, and the "weird" Explorer headers.
