What year is this Ranger?

[BLM]

The Ranger is 8ft long and has the full width back and side wings. I bought this a few days ago in Portland from a CL seller who didn't know the year or model. The serial number and manufactured date tag is faded and unreadable.

The "Four Wheel" sticker says Woodland Ca.

It looks OK on the outside, but after years of neglect it will need some of the wood replaced inside and the roof is plastered with huge amounts of sealant and still leaks.

Looks similar to my 98 (I think) Grandby, same fabric, door, windows. Looks a little long

It does seem a bit long. I am no expert but I thought the Ranger models were short, barely 6 feet. When I purchased my camper (also on CL) I had to clean it out as well. When I took the cushions from the bed and couch area out from inside the fabric they had written Ranger II on the cushions. You could possibly unzip cushions and see if something is written on yours as well, won’t help with the year but maybe the model. Also my Ranger has grey vinyl instead of that tan material, not sure what year they went to grey and if all models made the change in the same year. Have fun narrowing it down, and getting her road worthy.

Looks like it is probably a 1991 or a 1992 model.

The Ranger II campers are 80" long.

The Ranger Model campers are 96" long.


hope this helps.

have fun with the new camper !!

Thanks for the information.

This one is 96" long. Due to 20 years in the Portland rain and humidity, some of the wood is soft. Not looking forward to replacing that bed-board above the cab.

Maybe by this time next year it will be ready for camping.

Thanks. I unzipped the cushions but couldn't find any marks or writing. Stan identified it as a '91 or '92 Ranger (96").
