While many people in the United States have been clamoring for the Ford Ranger Raptor to be sold locally, one local owner took matters into his own hands, transforming a standard Ranger Super Cab into a Trophy Truck with off-road credentials beyond even the F-150 Raptor.
Featured in this video from AutotopiaLA, this insane off-roader was once a bright red second-generation Ranger that was given to the current owner for free. The only thing shared with the stock truck are the cab and part of the original frame; everything else is new.

The off-roader was built by RJ Fabrication and is powered by a big block Chevrolet V8 that pumps out an impressive 681 hp. Of course, to make it a proper off-roader, the chassis and suspension systems of the Ranger also had to be comprehensively upgraded. As such, the truck rocks Fox shocks, coilovers, and bypassers and offers 28-inch of travel at the back and 20-inches of travel at the front.
Adorning the exterior is bespoke bodywork that includes a front fascia kinda reminiscent of the F-150 Raptor featuring a bull bar while sticking the truck to the pavement (or the dirt) are 39-inch BF Goodrich tires.
For as wild as the exterior is, the interior is quite refined and features tan-colored leather across the center console, dashboard, and the seats. According to the owner, who refers to the interior as “the office”, he wanted it to be nice and comfortable. Despite that, it also has a complete roll cage.
