Someone did a 93-95, I have one at the house (not for sale or trade though) not sure who did it but it is a good clean casting. I can take some pictures and post if you would like to see them. I cannot recall any real differences between 93-95 & 97.

the only differences between the 93-97 rangers is the grille and the dashes.

I did and ex cab but haven't got to the interior yet.

If you can find a caster id be willing to put the body up as a master. Id even do an interior for it.

I've been looking for a '98 some time- all I've been able to find is a '93. I finally came to the conclusion that I'd have to convert the '93 to a '98. As others have said, It seems to mostly involve modifying the grille, headlights, interior and dashboard.

If some photos of a '98 would help, I'd be happy to snap a few and send them to you or post them here.

Thanks for the replies. I have been working on the cab and have it pretty close to being finished. The side windows on the extended part have me stumped as to how to make them and look like they should. They are almost flush and have a small molding a round the edge. The interior is ruffed in but not to my liking.I was just hoping someone made one with a good looking interior on the extended part.

The windows are the thing that have kept me from trying to do exactly what you are trying to do! I've never had much luck with flush-fit glass.

This would be cool resin piece- I know for a fact that the '93-'97 Rangers all shared the same cabs. For a '98-up Supercab you'd just need to scribe in the panel lines for the rear hinged 'flap' doors. The regular cabs were different- the '98 and up were stretched about 3" behind the doors. Hope that conversion job works out for you James! Maybe it'll inspire me to get started converting my '95 kit into an '01 Edge! :lol:

Im thinking of just scribing the window lines in and painting them gloss black :rolleyes:

Not bad- I was thinking of making a lip inside to fit the glass to- scribing the line and blacking it out would hide the lip.
