Red face good news & bad news....

good news first, my grandfather is coming up today to deliver my new (to me) Furd Ranger pickup! i'll get some pics up once its here for you guys. and i also ordered the bug sheild hood thingie yesterday for the monte


whats the bad news? the reason im getting the ranger right now is because yesterday the trans in my dad's '97 plmouth minivan lost all the forward gears but 1st. so untill he eather fixes his van or finds another driver, im letting him drive my monte. gonna miss driving it for a few weeks, but knowing him he'll take better care of it than i do might also put togeather the Z34 for him to drive, although it still needs quite a bit of work....


just wanted to update everyone!

Hi `Ryan,
That's good news that you grandfather is giving you his
Ranger (is it the 2.3L four ? or the V6 ? )..
Do you get 2 keep `it ? Oh, is it a 5spd or a auto ?
I think they are decent little trucks...Is it a long bed or
extended cab ?
I think it's great also that you will loan your Monte to your
father...If you can't trust your dad , who can U trust
I'm sure whatever happens that you will always find a
ride, or be able to put one 2gether...: )

Look 4ward to seeing pictures 4-Sure...
Hope Everything works `out 4 U 4 -Sure : )
Wish you a fun remaining Holiday Extended Weekend..
Thanks 4 the update on what's happening in the
mountains of BuzzKill, Pa ~*

its a regular cab, v6, auto 4x4 space, cool thing is its only got 60,000 some odd miles on it. only 100k less than the monte, lol.

oh, and i also went and made a junkyard run to my favorite yard over in jersey yesterday. sadly about 1/4 of the yard has been cleaned out scince spring with the rest to follow shortly. damn the state of NJ BUT they opened up more new aereas for me & my dad to explore. found a '63 impala station wagon that was a factory black car with a red interior, 327 / auto car, also a '70 dart 2 door H/T with an oldsmobile V8. it was a factory 4 speed car though. and a '68 malibu that was a very rough old hot rod. my camara's batteries died right when i tried to take a pic though oh well, next time

WoW `Ryan,
A 4X4 to get U anywhere U want 2 `go + Super Low Miles...
It's a Keeper 4-Sure
You sure have a fun life & you sure can find some awesome
rides in those hidden Auto GraveYards in your area.
Look 4ward to seeing pictures when time permits.

It would be great if you could find some property and start
your own auto salvage & rebuild center...

BuzzKill `Ryans Auto's
If you can't find what you want, we will 4 U
I think that would be a fun business, you could give me
a job tearing vehicles apart (I'm not 2 good @ putting
them back 2gether, but I'm super @ tearing them `up : )
Look 4ward 2 your updates.
EnJoy your Time `Off
Peace/Out
