Rangers used to be great hand layed glass boats.
Mr Wood knew his stuff.
Your model Ranger was a popular hull and good fishing platform.

Dad still has his 1972. Its a BASS tourney model, or has been made to look like one. I need to run the hull number to find out. It doesnt have the original Evinrude on it. Someone stuck a POS Chrysler 105 on it. Still a solid boat. Fished in it 2 weeks ago.
Ive never seen another one of the smaller Ranger 2s with the stick steering around here.

They aint nothin here but rocks and clay and hillsides, unless you live in Flatwoods. Flatwoods is flat, but it's all black mud. Sucks the boots right offn yer feets.

Chysler 105 was a POS.
Buddies father had one on his boat, it was named One Way.

Yep. Knew when it Cheeched to life that it was gonna be a bad day. Timing was way high. Stupid belt drive dizzy just caint get right. Then the throttle linkage stuck wide open. Thankfully, it wasnt running well enough to be going very fast. Just cut it off and got it back to neutral. Idled to where we wanted to fish. Used the trolling motor most of the day.

Lincolnton is more gooder.

At edge of the graveyard was a still standing 2 hole outhouse.
