the aerostar was based on the ranger, the only mechanical difference in them aside from engine offerings was the rear coil suspension on the aerostar. the ranger was based on the pinto so basically the aerostar was a pinto. aerostars were always fun to drive though

actually, Expos, the Ranger was based completely off the original Ford Courier/Mazda B-series, the only difference being that the Ford Ranger used the Ford engines, at that time being the 2.0L OHC, the Lima 2.3L OHC and the Cologne 2.8L V6. When the Aerostar debuted there were two engines offered, the 2.3L OHC and the 2.8L V6... The Pinto can trace its powertrain lineage back to the original Ford Cortina (a British captive import). The Original 1972 Pinto featured a canted valve 1.6L Kent 4 cylinder that was quickly replaced by the 2.0L OHC found in the Mercury Capri.
I used to be a Ford guy... drive a 2.3L OHC Aerostar... it will completely redefine what gutless means.

Sometimes... A-bodies, X-bodies and W-bodies are a little muddy when it comes to US or Canadian built models.

the initial x bodies (pre 79) were very interchangeable. my dads phoenix and my grandfathers nova were close to indentical save for the engine. my grandfather had a straight 6 my dad a v8. the A body was cool because from a power train standpoint the buick and the olds were sisters as were the pontiac and the chev but body wise the olds and the pontiac had a body line that was at the top and the chev and buick it was at the bottom. Made for an interesting franken car if you put salvage parts on because the doors may fit but the body lines didnt line up. The rear doors from the newer models wouldnt fit on the older ones because the windows were shaved to fit
