Wow! It looks like so awesome! I can't wait to see it in person all the way done... and drive it and make everybody stare! lol. I'm such a dork. As long as nobody else touches it, or breathes on it wrong, lol I'll be fine. I might have to carry drool towels for people, hahah. I LOVE the roll bar... Stevie you 'membered! I knew I could trust you to build me a truck that I would truly love, I helped you enough w/ both of your Rangers- you know what I like! lol. Be sure to tell Verujean(spelling???) that I said thank you for the arm rests for me. Ahhh! I'm so excited, I get to drive it in like less than a month!!! lol. *does a little dance* I love you Stevie!!!... And you too Dad! Thankyou soooooooooooooooooooo much! lol.

Good News!, Bad News! Worse News!

Well She ran! and good!

Then her front main blew and a waterfall of oil started coming out the front of the motor. :mad:

We will have to pull the motor it looks to change the bottom of the pan. At this point it's just not reliable. We don't even know how it drives :(

We are thinking of of just canning the motor and V8 :D
 






Yeah, V8 is the way to go. But if you're doing it, might as well go all out. *cough cough* 460! :D :p
 






This makes me sad... but I mean what can you do but try and fix it? :(

:D That's why she's not driving! Well and there was that little thing a few months ago about taking out a new Dakota, and pushing a Kia across a parking lot in a friends F-150 :p

But I think she's learned her leason. :rolleyes:

I think we're gonna try to fix the front main. She ran good when she was running for the 10 miin period. :rolleyes: We just got fed up with it and thru it in the garage :( I don't think I ever seen a car go in the garage and come out in less then a year. It's like we swept it under the carpet. :rolleyes:

Honestly though probbaly start back up on it over labor day. It just got put to the side because I'm try'n to get my truck ready for the next run. ;)
 






History Lesson

This is where I started working on rangers ;)


My first car.
