I just acquired a fantastic 74 Ranger that only needs a driver door mirror and a set of original hubcaps (for now). If I can't find a good set of originals I'll buy some new ones but this thing has such great patina, I'd like to find a nice set of originals if someone has a set they'd be willing to part with. Let me know if you can help and thanks in advance!!

If it's just the ball and socket that is not working on that mirror, you may be able to fix it:

That is exactly what the problem is. I’ll give that a try. Thank you!

Thank you! Uncut, original paint, zero rust, with 60k original miles. I saw a couple sets of nos caps on eBay that I might just pony up for cause I’m dying to see this thing with some new tires and caps.

Beautiful Ranger! Regarding the hubcaps, we might be able to work something out because I have a set of OEM hubcaps but I would rather have a new set for my resto that I am doing. I'm in Clovis.

Crawln68 thank you!!! Much better now!! I do still need either one more complete front cap or just the center ring for a front cap if someone has one. Off to a great start though.

You have one fine Bronco randbjorn! And it looks sweet with the hub caps on it!! It was nice to meet you and talk Bronco for a while. I'd love to come over and check out the rest of your herd one of these days.

Thank you crawln68!! I think we can make that visit happen. Just let me know when you want to stop by and I'd be more than happy to talk a little more Bronco with you.
