I can put the HU from my Focus in an 89 Mustang, but I'm not sure about the contour to a ranger. It would depend on weather it's a premium sound unit or a base unit. The PS units need the external amplifier as they have no internal amplifier. Only the base cassette player has it's own amplifier in the Contour. He might be SOL unless he has that tape player, or has the external amplifier.

It should work, the tape deck from my first 'Tour is in my 94 Danger Ranger, and it was a wicked easy install.

I don't see why not. My H/U, albeit an aftermarket H/U came out of my 89 stang and went into my tour in about 20 minutes. The connectors were even the same for both cars.
