Too sad... junkyard flareside 😥

Administrator

Not really a eBay or Craigslist find... but this showed up at the Flagstaff U-Pick-It. 1981 Ranger XLT 4x4 flareside. I thought there were not supposed to be XLT flaresides 🤷‍♂️

Sadly there is not much worth taking off of it. The bed is pretty rough.

It does look rough!

But, one of my 1981 brochures shows this under XLT on Page 7:
