My goal is to have the body complete and painted this year and moving under it's own power, by the following spring hope to have it complete and on the road.

Wow, that`s a lot quicker than my two, they`ve been under re-construction for 7-8 yrs with no quick end in sight for either yet.

Happy Friday all. I didn't work yesterday, and felt like crap all day today.(flu bug). If I keep getting sick like this winter, I'll have to humper on the old truck this summer. Had a flu shot, but the kid's, and my wife, bring nasty bug's home. I haven't been down as much as the rest of the family. I really never miss work for illness. I guess that comes with age. Hopin' for that lotto win! Have a great weekend guy's. It's a long weekend for us. Louis Riel Day.

Good afternoon folks.
for sure some seat time in your the panel will be enjoyable John, I`m really looking forward to summer too.
We got flu shot too Grant, so far so good but flu season is just startng to get bad so we got our fingers crossed. Hope you and your family get over it soon.
A lotto win would be great but I never buy tickets so that`s out for me.
It's a long weekend here too, Family Day and the weather is great.

We had just a trace of snow earlier, -7°C and the sun is trying to come out. Some parts of Sk are getting drifting snow, glad it`s not here.

Sunny here for the most part, these longer days are a nice bonus now.
Time to make a run to the municipal land fill, TTYL.

Morning boys. About to enjoy another beautiful non-seasonal week here. Yesterday reached +2, today speaks of -5, and all week is single digit temps. A couple above 0 I must say, the 2-3 days of cold that we have had this year are definitely nothing to complain about!!

Mo, I think you should take one of them to a resto shop and just get it done. For your own sanity and all of ours. We've been waiting for the finished product long enough


Happy Family Day guys, hope everyone has a good one!!

Happy Family Day fellas. Been busy building bridges to start 2016... Crazy working hours but the pay is decent

Question for all you Ford nuts out there... Looking at another vehicle purchase, need opinions.

2006 Ranger Sport, 4x4 Supercab. Asking $7000 w/ little over 100,000kms. 4.0L engine and power everything.

Thoughts? Seems like a decent price to me, and I could likely talk them down a bit too.

Good morning everyone..
good to see you finally got your horse delivered to you Sherm and it's wonderful they can be penned up together and get along just fine, more humans should take notice of that...lol
Hello Aaron, can't say I know much about the Rangers to give any advice other than try and get it as cheap as you can, I believe the 4.0L was supposed to be a good little motor..
