We've just had our first good rain of the season...you want some? Really made a mess of our construction project as the city has been been stonewalling our building permits and we haven't got the storm drain system in place yet.
I've been busting butt trying to get my Ranger done by next Saturday, but it's not looking too good at this point. Still fighting the wiring (which is not my strong suit.) I'm very throrough and meticulous about it, and it goes really slow. I still have to finish building the muffler and the rest of the exhaust, install some heat shielding around the fuel and brake lines where they're a little too close to the left header and there's no place to re-route them, and find some radiator hoses to fit and get the cooling system buttoned up. Then it's just a lot more little details and it should be ready to roll. Just not looking like it's gonna happen by next weekend though, unless I take some time off from work which I just can't afford to do right now...

Yeah, we do, dry as a bone here... So, just put some in a paper bag - airfreight isn't too expensive is it???
Good to here the Ranger project is coming along, will be quite the impressive vehicle when its done, I like you, hate wiring things up, put me on a mill or a lathe and I am a happy man, put a soldering iron in my hand and I just want to explode (which ironically is usually what my wiring harness' end up doing)
Have you made the Al driveshaft for it yet?
