BOLD RIDE
If the idea of a concept car is any indication – not all running and driving prototypes are destined for their day in a dealership showroom. Some never see the light of day at all, others just fizzle out before production… for one reason or another.
If it pushes all the right buttons, you’re in luck. This Blue Oval oddity is currently up for sale on eBay, and it looks to be in stellar condition.
Admittedly, the ‘SkyRanger’ design is a bit odd. This drop top Ranger comes fitted with an aero-styled body kit, rear wing affixed to the bed rails, an aerodynamic hoop directly behind the canvas roof, and despite a low-slung ride height it even comes with four-wheel drive. Odd, but then again so was the Syclone. Whatever the reason, Ford never delved further into SkyRanger production beyond this limited run, making these eye-catching pickups quite the rare find.
Lift up the hood of this one and you’ll find a Ford 4.0-liter V6 engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Inside and out, the truck looks to be in incredibly good shape, a notion reinforced by its minuscule mileage – a claimed 7,279 miles in 24 years.
So which cool ‘90s ute would it be for you? GMC Syclone, Dakota Convertible, or Ford SkyRanger? Let us know!
