Cranky old man
Still need to install carpet, rear cargo cover, and tan seat belts. I also need to finish the back up cam in the auto mirror.
 
What in the absolute hell have you got going on in there? Its definitely different, if that's what you were going for.

I see a Lincoln column and wheel, reupholstered seats and a blackwood radio. Are you going for a mini blaxkwood clone?

I have installed Lincoln fender and tailgate emblems. Wheels are 16inch V6 Mustang. No pics of the emblems yet. Under the hood I installed 2008 coil and open the plugs up to 52 for better mileage. Battery and block heater also. Electric fan from HHR. I added power windows and locks along with cruise. Factory tow hooks and shroud for front of radiator. Aluminum rear end cover from front end of an Expedition. Console is custom fit from an 03 Explorer. Working on Explorer hood hinges and tan leather shift boot.

More pics coming.

It's a 2010 Scion / Pioneer radio. I choose it because they are really decent radios for $100.00 or less. They have USB input which was a must for me. I am going for a total Lincoln look. Seats are rear leather seats from a Windstar. They fold flat to use as a table for notebook or lunch.

Yes, I think it classes it up also. It looks better in real life. I just picked up the paint for the lid. I want to repaint the whole truck but I'll settle for the lid, tailgate and bumpers for now. I got a pic of the 07 headlight switch.

i think a metallic black with chrome trim would give it a more classy look also

Metallic black is one of the colors on my short list. Possible other choices are choc brown metallic or deep burgundy metallic.
I am seriously considering chrome bumpers. I do plan on chrome mirror covers, but I want the oem design that replaces the paintable covers.

Thanks,
I got the idea from a new Nissan or Toyota SUV that has it as an option.
I had them mounted to the Ranger tracks, but they didn't fit right. I put them back on the Windstar tracks and custom made the mounts to the floor. It was much easier.
Next is to pull it all out, paint the mounts tan and install the carpet. While it's apart, I got tan seat belts and tan rear cargo cover.

BTW don't try to paint a cargo cover. I painted a gray one tan. Thing always sticks. Paint never fully drys.

Did you see page 1 of the pix?
Lincoln grill emblem on a vertical bar grill (same as Lincolns), Lincoln wheel centers, Lincoln steering wheel, almost every possible option Ranger had and quite a few they didn't.
I am going for a Lincoln clone. A mini LT if you will. I just got some Lincoln LSC emblems. I am going to cut them and re arrange the letters to say SLC. Those are my initials. IF they look really good when I am done, I will have a Lincoln SLC mini truck.
If they look like crap, I will have a Lincoln mini truck. I want the uneducated eye to see it as a rare Lincoln, not a custom Ranger. Just to mess with people I guess. The truck does not say Ford or Ranger anywhere on it anymore.
