note: If you happen to be viewing this 1988 Ford Ranger on a
website other than our Garage Kept Motors site, it's possible that
you've only seen some of our many photographs of the car due to
third-party website limitations. To be sure you access the more
than 150 photographs, as well as a short start-up and walk-around
video, and a link to the Mustang's accident-and-damage-free Carfax
history report, please go to our main website: Garage Kept Motors.)
Ranger Danger! Don't be a stranger to this Ford Ranger. Big, bad
and blue, this mini-monster truck is guaranteed to turn heads
wherever you go. Introduced in 1983 as a standalone compact truck
after being a package for the Fords full-size truck, the
first-generation ranger ran until 1988. Offered with a variety of 4
and 6-cylinder engines throughout its life, the Ranger was a true
workhorse. Found everywhere from busy city centers to rural farms
and ranches, there was hardly a task the Ranger couldn't tackle.
(To best assess the quality of the paint and trim finishes, please
be sure to view the close-up photographs of the car in the
accompanying gallery.) Exterior: This Ranger immediately stands
out. Sitting on a massive lift and tires this little truck simply
towers above pretty much anything else in traffic. Massive Mickey
Thompson tires ensure you can take on any obstacle. Finished in a
beautiful light blue, both front and rear bumpers have been color
matched. Cab sun visor, chrome roll bar and large, high mounted
spotlights complete the aggressive look. All lights are functional
and free of cracks, and all glass is clear with no blemishes.
Interior: Largely stock, the interior on this Ranger is clean and
free of damage and reflects the care bestowed by a long-term owner.
Comfortable bucket seats feature power lumber adjustments. An
aftermarket stereo head unit adds CD compatibility and a removable
face plate. Blue carpet and door cars are clean and present well.
Door locks and window controls are manually controlled. Rear window
has a split opening window. (To best assess the quality of the

This Ranger features is optioned exactly the way you would want it
to be. 2.9L V-6, 5-speed manual transmission and 4-wheel drive make
it a blast to drive. Lifted right with a Pro Comp lift kit
featuring shocks, lift blocks and color matched sway bars and end
links. Drive shafts are also color-matched and connected to beefy
axles. Under the hood things are mostly stock, with blue wiring and
hose covers. While the more than 175 high-definition photographs
and the short walk-around-and-startup video available on the

every angle, including from below, we expect and encourage
in-person inspections at our Grand Rapids, Michigan showroom.
