1977 Ford F-150 Ranger

Our man on the prairies, Alex Emond, found this very clean F-150 Ranger in Maple Creek, Saskatchewan, not far from the Cypress Hills. I like everything about it except the wheels and those whitewalls. Looks to be the same (factory?) orange as Clementine, a 1971 F 250 whose Montana-to-Massachuseets roadtrip was posted on AL last year.

    she's purdy.
    should be a '71 if that's the original grille.
    here's a good link on how to identify some memorable ford years by the grille: http://bit.ly/19EvNbN
