I don't know if your still on here or not but I just wanted to say that I just sat here on New Years morning and read this entire thread! I'm extremely impressed to say the very least! I just bought an 87' Ranger Comanche 360 and I'm just starting the restoration. Your thread gave me so much inspiration and I really appreciate your honesty about the mistakes and challenges you faced with it. To be honest it was like reading a cool story with a sad ending. I was sad to hear you sold it, but I do understand. Good luck and I look forward to following along on your next adventure!
