Teens Mead Ranger Frame? ID Help.

I'll be receiving the bare frame this weekend and would like to steer in direction.

The Date?

The Model?

It looks like "ranger" is on the down tube

The frame is definately the only thing Ranger there. Even the fork is foreign. The down tube decal is the only way to confirm it is a Ranger. Normally you date these with the characteristics of the fork, crank, sprocket & fenders. No one has a Mead serial number data base.

Thanks Nick, Can we at least say it's teens? or could it be 20's?

To my untrained eye.... This looks similar.

No worries. The headbadge would of helped aswell. We could guess 20's, but this frame style probably spanned from teens-30's.
Post a picture of the serial number in the bottom bracket. If it looks primitive, then we'll get a better idea.

I'm picking it up Saturday at "Get a Grip" Swap meet. I'll post pictures.

It looks as if someone made a custom cruiser out of that frame for riding purposes.
There's nothing wrong with doing that, but it's also nice to see someone that will put it back to original too!
Now the fun begins.

I may have an original Mead chain ring & cranks around somewhere yet..

Let me know if you sell!

I think that I have an extra fork. I need a 1/2" sprocket, drop stand and a head light.

Pm me if you want to sell, I'm collecting parts
