Yup, that sure is one shiny Ford Exploder!

Oh, you mean the Lambo and the Viper, they're OK, but just look at that shiny Exploder.

I like the concept of the two tone ranger, but I dont like the gold fin.. I like the 5 spoke rims, and blue calipers.. overall nice ride.

Thank you sir!

One of the problems with custom paint is finding a design that 'fits' the car or truck....it is a compromise. In this case the long shape of an extended cab Ranger does not look 'right' without something to break up the lines.
BTW, the 'fin' is orange and the color scheme is Trik-flow. There is 'flip-flop' in the upper color and it goes gold in the shade.

The rear brakes are from a Mustang as the '95 Rangers did not have that as an option. The fronts are Baer Racing calipers and rotors with OZ Racing rims on Sumitomo 'Z' rated rubber. This pic was taken before the supercharger was installed...on a 5.0 Ford crate motor with a Viper Spec Tremec, Strange Axles ....450HP without sacrificing creature comforts....AC, PS, PB...completely dynomatted with all the sounds you might imagine....Snow meth injection and too many custom pieces to list here. 12.5 quarter is easy ...about 450HP.....winner of World Ford Challenge '09...Best In Class.





Now you know why I can't spend money modifying my HHR SS!
