1994 Ford Ranger

It's a tilt bed and we are a little tilted at times.

My husband and I have always been into cars and trucks since we’ve been together. We originally had a bagged Escape and a bagged Fusion. Craig then got his minitruck and I took over his Fusion. It wasn’t long after that that I wanted my own truck. We traveled to North Carolina and traded the Fusion for my Ranger. After one year of showing the Ranger we quickly realized we needed it off i-beams. We contacted Jeremiah Sibray of Addictive Fabworks to help with the transformation. It originally was supposed to be just changing the back half of the frame and changing the front bag set up. Well one thing led to another and we decided to body drop it with a custom built frame. Then while we were figuring out the framing for the bed, Jeremiah put a tilt bed in my head. That’s when things went all out. With custom paint of House of Kolor, Candy Grape on top and Silver on bottom. This of course made the full tan tweed interior not go with the theme, so that was changed. We originally ordered the same V6 engine, but due to COVID and the lack of parts that engine never came, we had to come up with a plan B. Well, plan B ended up being a 302 V8 and that required pushing the engine closer to the firewall. My pedals had to be moved up 6 inches, which worked out great for me since I’m so short. I also had to get rid of all the AC and heat, which left a big hole in the firewall. Jeremiah surprised me with my bead-rolled rose where all those components were. He also bead-rolled my bed for me as well.

Year and half

My husband and I have been building together for about 10 years. This truck was the first from the ground up. Jeremiah Sibray was the main fabricator.

Twizted Intentions

At some point I would like to put underglow on, but I like to keep people on their toes on what I may do next. For now, I would like to put more attention to my husband’s truck since he has put his on the back burner for the last year and half building mine.

Since it was trade, not much to tell except it needed a lot of work

I would like to thank Jeremiah Sibray and his son Jeremiah Sibray, Jr. of Addictive Fabworks for all their hard work on this build. He is truly a master at his craft. He always goes above and beyond to have high quality of work but also very safe. Not only is he a good friend, but he and his family are considered family. I also want to thank his family (Jennifer, Jeremiah Jr. and Julianna) for their patience with this build, as there were a lot of weekend and late nights working on this truck. To my husband, Craig Snyder for making so many sacrifices, so that I could have the build I envisioned and standing by me through all my changes and breakdowns. You are my number one supporter and have my back no matter what. I couldn’t do any of this without you by my side. Thank you for all your little surprises with the truck as well. Jody Clark at Jody Clark Pinstriping Studio for the pinstriping. Kody Snyder and Jerry Gilman for all the final detailing that I didn’t have the equipment for. Jacob Sankowski for making sure the house and dogs were taken care of when we spent our weekends away building the truck. There are various people that helped out by either coming by and picking up the cab or when we needed the extra hand, and I appreciate everyone.
