Consumer Description

1999 FORD RANGER, FRAME RUSTED SO BAD THAT MY MECHANIC SAYS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND WILL NOT WORK ON IT. I HAVE WELDED THE FRAME IN TWO PLACES. WHAT IS UPSETTING IS THAT THERE IS NO RUST HOLES IN THE BED OR BODY. THE FRAME SHOULD NOT BE DISINTEGRATING BEFORE OTHER PARTS RUST. *TR
