Here's a side shot:

I wish it would have started leaking. Maybe I would have found it six hundred dollars ago.

It's actually common on some Fords. Brainstorming last night I remembered reading about it so I was hoping, expecting to find this. Or a clogged radiator.

This Ranger has been fighting me for a month. My daughter drives it and it overheated. Weekend #1- removed heads, found a cracked head. Weekend #2- found a used head, reassembled everything. Still not running right. Weekend #3- removed head I didn't change, crack I can't see or bent valve. Weekend #4, this weekend- installed another used head, still not running right. So, remove radiator and water pump to inspect. Radiator fine, water pump pictured below.

The brown one in my other picture is wrecked in the front and the engine and transmission have been removed. I tried to get decent pictures of the sheet metal unibody frame. You can see it separating from the accident just above the crossmember in the first pic.

The only differences through the years other than a minor body character line are the grill, bumpers and taillights. I would think someone might 3D print some different year stuff.

There is no separate frame on the 1:1. The underside of the kit looks very much like the real thing. The front crossmember bolts to the unibody rails.

Yes it's unibody, and yes the engine is offset, but no, the control arms are not unequal lengths. That would make it handle weird. I just measured to make sure.

The A-Team van has the roof ribs, although that hasn't been reissued in a long time.

Planes? Trains? No thanks. I live near a drag strip/circle track like a normal person.

Yes, that's the one I was talking about. That's where my hood came from.

Well, he also said cowl induction hood which that kit doesn't have. Wouldn't be the first time someone got the kit manufacturer wrong. But I guess we'll see when he replies.

I think he means the OBS. I don't have one but I can simulate it with parts I have.

The red stuff smells better. I can smell that stuff all day, nice deep sniffs.

Yes. One piece chassis, engine plate instead of engine.

I like it. I would prefer the older full detail kit, but the body looks essentially the same as well as most of the interior.

Been wanting this since it came out. I don't buy online. Thanks to OldNYJim for letting us know Michael's has them now.

I saw a late 90s early 00s windowless Ford cargo van with 80s-90s Chevy van fixed window side door glass cut out and mounted into the side doors. Not something most people would notice, but I'm a van enthusiast.

Hobby Lobby also has the 1/32 trailer but no trucks. I thought that was weird.

Yes, I saw all your excuses as to why you don't like using that option but you do have that option.

Yes, that's what I said.

You can get a Visa or Mastercard card that you load with cash and use it anywhere they're accepted, which is pretty much anywhere.

I saw a motorcycle and then the guy that was riding it sliding across the pavement into an intersection. It was raining. Then he slipped and fell again when he ran to pick up the bike in the middle of the road. I felt so bad for him, but he seemed fine. It was low speed as he was stopping for the red light.

I couldn't get a picture, but it put a big smile on my face. A young girl driving a first generation Bronco II with working a/c and an antique license plate.

I don't think so, because I'm NOT getting those types of ads.
