I have a buddy that started building a tubbed ranger around that year model a few years ago. They have got all the chassis work done and the engine built(357W). I dont know why they dont finish it.

I was going to build a 94 rc stepside, but I had only seen a few, so I decided to stick to something a lot of people have already done, that way I have something to refer to. I love lightnings and almost every ford stepside or shortbed, but when it came down to it, I just didn't see the point in buying a lightning for $20Kor more, when i could build something that will smoke it more about $9k. Plus I like shifting my own gears anyway.

You can shift your own gears in a Lightning :)
