87 Ford b2
I bought my b2 about 4 years ago after someone rear ended me in my 01 ranger totaling it. I picked it up for $500. I bought it totaled from my neighbor because it had been rolled over in the snow. I fixed it got it a new title and started driving it. Drove it until last year when I bought myself a 01 cherokee that got better gas mileage. I parked the b2 and it started to mold and leak didn't run right, had a weird surging problem. About a month ago I went out to clean it out so I could take it to the scrapper. After sitting for a year I tried starting it and it keyed right off. So I decided I would keep it. So in the past month I changed the fuel pump, throttle position sensor, plugs, wires, cap and rotor and new brakes all the way around. It drove good after that so now it has a 4 inch rough country lift, extended brake lines and new paint. Also tore out the carpet and truck bed lined the floor. Now I need some bigger tires and it will be time to go find some mud.
