    Honestly, this is the definition of OEM+ applied to an underappreciated platform for every right reason. It's been a pleasure watching this project from the start and you should be so proud of the finished product and of your work. I guarantee your Gram is.

      As a ranger owner I think your effort is instigating a value bump in the ranger market
      Not to mention the freedom factory... Would you drive your truck in Florida to see cleatus...

    It doesn't matter how much you spent on the Ranger it's value to you is priceless and the look on your face tells us just how much it means to you. Never seen you happier. Great job on the resto.

    Adorable how precious this truck is to you and it shows....love how the floor mats are original and the wind deflectors you installed when you were 12 are still on the truck....the pride and affection for that time are obvious and so lovely to see....what a restoration job tho, the truck looks fucking amazing Sarah. I bet your Gram is SUPER proud of you and happy you still have it. You are such a sweetheart of a lady!! . (The brake test was funny AF by the way🤣🤣)

    I think your gram would be proud. She took amazing care of it and you. It is one of the best restorations I’ve seen. Even the pin striping is OEM. It looked like it just rolled off the show room. Great job Sarah.

    Sarah,
    I have enjoyed watching your journey with this little truck from the 1st video you made of it. Your heartfelt expression of joy & sharing memories whilst driving your "RANGAH" was such a tribute to your hard work & attention to detail and such a neat way to honor your gram!

    @bobuncle8704 Год назад +18

    I’ve been waiting for this review. The amount of care and effort you put into this truck speaks volumes. I’ve no doubt that the title is correct. The worlds cleanest 94 Ranger.
    If your gran coined the phrase give it the beans, that’d be awesome. There’s hardly a car channel that I know of that doesn’t use that phrase now.

  • @kzawada1674
