I trip to Illinois to Beard's house for a few months.


I've told him for the last couple years.....when I win the lotto, I'm dropping the truck off with a $50,000 check. Now, I don't know if it'll be dropped off before or after the Brazilian Ranger parts and drivetrain gets throw into mine, as well as frame lengthening....but either way, it's getting a date with a Brazilian Ranger and an '03 Sonic Blue Ranger in Il.

Oh...forgot to add....Full repaint to that super super super dark grey that come on Fiddys and Stangs, with a DWB stripe or something...gotta stay DWB somehow....and my other color choice, the dark brown color of Buckey's and Beard's trucks, don't go to well with DWB. lol.

After I complete current mods the only thing left on my list is a new sound system. Nothing fancy, just new speakers and maybe amp and subwoofer.

I'd import a foreign 4 door diesel ranger and have it re-worked to meet safety standards.

A really good full detail so they would pay me more for it when I sold it, then I'd use the rest of the money for payments or money towards a car.
