Neil finished welding up the holes on the other side of the bed today and Blake got my cowl sanded down top and bottom while I helped work on Neil's truck!

Hey Niel how do you like that 225 ranger. My dad bought the 250 about a month ago, but I'm the only that's used it. It works great.

Newtz67 · 05-02-2010, 10:14 PM

You need me to come pick up that engine layin on the floor?

that's a big block ferd motor. I spent a Saturday afternoon helping Neil stick it in his drag car and after some starter issues he jerks it out and throws it on the floor! Can you believe that? It's got about a .700 lift cam and like 13:1 compression too.

Newtz67 · 05-02-2010, 10:35 PM

Haha! Well I've got no need for a ford engine. Looks nice though! Looks like your coming right along with your truck too! Sweet!

If you offered him 10,000 he might do it.

*highperf4x4* · 05-06-2010, 12:55 AM

Ok, I got the A/C charged up tonight and that sucker is blowing COLD!!! I'm 3 for 3 this month on A/C's

I also sanded the black areas on the grille and repainted it. I'll see how long it holds up. This weekend I'll try to polish the rest of the grille without messing up my paint. You can see how much better the top bar of the grille and the headlight bezels looks with some chrome polish.

*beechd18* · 05-06-2010, 01:08 AM

you got the bed sanded yet???

*highperf4x4* · 05-06-2010, 01:09 AM

No I might get some of that done tomorrow evening though.

*beechd18* · 05-06-2010, 01:11 AM

sweet we going to paint it next week???

*highperf4x4* · 05-06-2010, 01:13 AM

, I don't know yet.

*beechd18* · 05-06-2010, 01:19 AM
