Did ya'll see the ads for the new Ford Rancheros supposed to go for under 10 grand? Somebody show me when you buy one for that...

 
Sorted the starter wiring issue out & got it to turn over & fire with starter fluid! I'll throw some gas in the tank tomorrow & get her running... it's been a while!

Hasn't run in at least 5 years, started right up! I'll tune her up a lil & see if she'll take to the road!

Got the Ranchero running really well. Couldn't get gas up to the carb so I installed a new fuel pump & re-ran the gas line only to find out the gas tank was a mess so I'll order a new tank today! It's *always* something... haha!

I just picked up an off topic project too...has not run in 2 years...so I am crossing my fingers I get it to run with very little work....but like you said...always another hurdle to clear....

Good luck and keep us in the loop
