FORD RANGER

Three-inch lift; 20-inch rims; LED lights; halo ring lights; oil catch can; three-inch stainless steel exhaust system; and a custom rack. The custom paint is a head-turner; everyday people come up to me a say it’s the most beautiful Ranger – one guy said he was gobsmacked. The interior is stunning, with a custom tablet and diamond-stitched floor. The engine is all painted and detailed, too. It will be finished by the end of November; I just have a stainless steel snorkel, custom airbox and lights to be fitted -Craig Freeman
