Hey there DAD! Just wanted to let you know... I was going through a Summit Catolog the other day and came across a Roll Pan for the Early Ranger Bronco. It didn't give a specific PN, but if you go to their site, I bet they could tell you whats available.
Glad to hear the baby is doing great! Hows MOM doing? If you need some DAD input (other than your own dad and your girls dad) we are always available here. There's no Forum at this time, but we can always plead for the Moderators to consider it!
We could put it under- Dirty Filters & Dirty Diapers! HEE HEE!
Keep the up-dates coming! Talk with you later buddy....

man i sure didnt, it completely slipped my mind, next time i have the front end up off the ground ill take a pic for you. and
scooter, hey man, im just curious if you know of any place/person or ever heard of an inertia switch causing a truck to just cut off. ive been driving man and the truck will just cut off. the fuel pump is no longer running when it does it, and it will eventually restart.....and no i dont have to press the reset button on it. i was told that rangers and B2s have always had a problem witht he switch goin out on em, and that all of my symptoms are in direct line with a "going bad" inertia switch. you ever heard of this? cuz im really starting to get aggrevated with it.

Hey BART M I used your B2 pics for a little photo shop experiment for goinlowbII to see what the truck would look like lowered and with the rear windows filled in. If you want them also e-mail me and I wil send them to you. They are just composite ideas, and I only used your pics cause your truck is awsome. That and I dont think by beater would have made a good base for the art.

I sent them to both. I am still waiting for goinlowbII's e-mail address, Mine is jragle@statworivers.uscg.mil if yall have any thing else you want a composite of. I like extreme customs and the computer makes for a good drawing board.

Hey There BART M! Those inertia switches can be a PITA. Your best bet is to find a replacement. I don't want to see anything happen to the BII at this time! It really is one sharp vehicle. You have quite the imagination and talent to go with it!

goinlowbII! Hope you had a great holiday!

B2SARDOG! Hey there! Sounds like you are the WIZ we are all hoping to be! I haven't had my set-up very long and am learning something new every week. My brain cells are few and far between! HEE HEE!

Would it be ok for me to save your e-mail addresses? I promise not to send STUFF unrelated to your and my projects. If not, thats ok... Talk with you guys later....

Scooter29, Feel free to save mine. My computer skills are nominal but I have alot of imagination, and quite a bit of body shop experience. So if you need another brain in the think tank, count me in.

Hey guys, I've put mine in before, but I'll do it again! HEE HEE! Like I said, I promise not to send you guys JUNK!
Ductmaniaq@netscape.net

I'm glad to hear there are such fine men out there who have children and are being a father. It takes a guy to father a child, but a man to be a father. I don't know if someone said that or not, but if it's a quote, COOL! (is cool still a word?)
Anyways, I'll talk with you guys later....

I agree with you Scooter29 on the father statement. I sent you the pics also incase you were interested.

GoinlowbII, I'll work on some other designs for the rear and I'll try to make them as true to life as possible.
