Ford Ranger More than two decades ago, the Ford Ranger debuted as an answer to various compact pickup trucks being made available by Japanese automakers. The Ranger was cleanly styled and offered with a choice of a 6-foot or 7-foot bed. Ford boasted that the Ranger had more interior room than the best-selling imports and that 4-by-8-foot construction material could be carried in the bed.

Default 80 ranger issue

My 80 ranger was bought new by my great grandpa and used mainly as a farm truck until 97(when my great grandpa passed). Then it was sitting out in the equipment shed until 06 when me and my grandpa got it out and got it running. Last year when it was outside for the first time since, it had rained and froze. There were nice sized chunks of icicles all over the inside of the truck(mainly on the roof).

That leads to my question. Why do you think this is happening, what's the issue and how can I got about fixing it? My only guess would be to replace all the weather stripping since it's very brittle and I'm guessing isn't working well anymore. Kudos to whoever can give me info on this, as I know hardly nothing about this truck.
