Hey everyone say a prayer looking at 74 Ranger

[RPM289]

Long time no post everyone! I found a 74 Bronco Ranger about 7 years ago and have stopped and asked about it numerous times always NO but stopped today and if his wife agrees I can purchase it. 302, Auto same family since new!

What was dark green paint on them? Guessing 4:11 with auto tranny?

Blessings,

Mike

Probably Ivy Glow Poly and 3:50 gears. I have had Rangers with 4:11 but 3:50 is more common.

Good luck!

Looks Darker green than Ivy looking at paint chips and it looks darker that all of them. Inside original outside painted a different green.

Good luck indeed! I've been looking for a nice kinda' original w auto and V8 without much luck.

Possibly Mallard Green?

Boxwood green?

If it has been repainted, it could be any color. May not even be a Ford color.

It was painted once but interior is original paint the paint chip looks dark for Ivy but when I look at pic of it, it looks lighter. I will run it down when I get it.

Did Rangers have power steering or disk brakes in 74? I was so excited that it is not rusty I forgot to look!

Power steering was an option on Broncos starting in 73. Disk brakes were not available until ‘76. They were standard on ‘76 and ‘77 models.

When you go look at it, get the paint code off the Data Plate in the glove box.

I had a 77 Ranger that was originally Ivy Green Metallic.

Pictures.
