Ford Ranger Gets Mustang Love
Ford Ranger Gets Mustang Love-January 2024
2023-12-14 EST 02:30:27

A tuning firm from Thailand, Wat Ford, has created a sporty Ranger bakkie inspired by the Ford Mustang.

This is what you get when you cross the popular Ford Ranger bakkie with the world’s most popular sports car, the Ford Mustang.

Creative credit must be given to Wat Ford, the tuning firm responsible for this surprisingly striking Ranger Mustang. It looks pretty good, don’t you think?

The body kit incorporates a Mustang Shelby GT350 front bumper, new headlights, Mustang emblem on the nose and white racing stripes for a more purposeful look. The stance of the Ranger Mustang has also been widened with bolt-on fender extensions and a custom dual exhaust system has also been fitted. Ride height has been lowered with air suspension and the Ranger Mustang rides on wider custom wheels too, giving the bakkie some bad-ass appeal.

The base for this build was a Ford Ranger XL 4×2 double-cab bakkie with a 2.2-litre turbodiesel engine with 118 kW and 385 Nm and mated with a 6-speed manual transmission.

While some might find that tidbit disappointing, this build illustrates that power isn’t everything and this is a fine example of what’s possible when you accept and embrace what you have and make the most of it and turn it into something remarkable.

Do you like the look of this Ford Ranger Mustang?

The all-new Ford Ranger is expected to be revealed this month, here’s what you can expect.
