When's the last time you saw a Ford Ranger...

This one came to me with only 53,000 miles and a bunch of random scratches and general dirt. Took care of that!

Wow. Looks great; you did a great job.

I like to think mine looks pretty good, and it does... especially considering it has over five times the miles that one does.
 
The owner should be speechless, it looks brand new. How about some before pics to prove you're really this good? ;)

I'm so bad at before pictures!

The truck honestly wasn't that bad. It just had a lot of little "oopsies" in the paint and it hasn't ever had a proper detail.

I would have liked to remove the wheels but the customer did not want to go that far.
 
Those Rangers were nice little trucks. My dad had a 2001 XLT with the 3.0 and automatic. I had a 1991 XLT with a 3.0 and 5 speed manual. Both of those trucks gave excellent service. By the way, good job on the detail work.
 
Roofless excellent job, I have a 1991 Ranger XLT 4x4 purchased new 155,000 miles been a great truck . Roofless what area of NC do you live I am in Raleigh, it has been cold here to cold for me to hand wash my vehicles?

I'm down near Fayetteville. It touched 60° yesterday and today was mid 50s.

As long as my spigot isn't frozen and the sun is out I take customers.
 
I have a soft spot for these Rangers. It's all my dad drove growing up and this brought back all those memories.

Had a blast bringing this back to pristine.
My parents have a 2011 with similar mileage. Always garaged, but they do use it as intended so the paint oopsies happen.

The old ones are still popular but used pickings are slim because people hang on to them. Carvana somehow snatches up all the ones with anything less than 100K miles.


Looks great, fantastic work.
 
Can you describe the process you used for the engine bay?

Truck looks great! Hope they pay you well, cleaning vehicles and doing a thorough job is a lot of work.
