Make sure you have everything covered here: http://z4.invisionfree.com/CJ3B_Bulletin_B...?showtopic=2414 It took me a couple of tries before it worked for me. One thing I noticed is some online storage sites aren't compatible. Good luck! -------------------- Rus Curtis '54 CJ-3B Bantam T3-C

I'am not a fan of going to another web site getting another password, transfering photo's to it from windows gallery and the other stuff required. Sometimes its not easy for this old Birddog to learn new stuff. More entries into my "how too notebook". Computers are my friend, they make my easier.

So how old is that IL Boater Registration sticker? In other words, how long since the boat has been on the water? And maybe your name is Tom? That's a nice looking 3B you've got, despite the years of dirt underneath. So what's the big ole sledge hammer for??? Is it your front end alignment tool? -------------------- John Burch - west burbs of Chicago 1949 - me - older than any of my vehicles 1954 3B - mostly stock - fun driver and snow plowing 1957 - 6 cyl Station Wagon - hope for the future past Willys 1954 3B - no tub \| 1959 3B - engine in pieces in a box past addiction - VW 1969 Bus \| 1970 Westfalia Camper \| 1984 Westfalia Camper

I use it at the strip mines we have here run by Izzak Walton league. The tub is pretty shot from the back of the seat to the firewall is bad. I will proably get a new tub. The BFH was just to let it know who was boss -------------------- 1956 CJ3B Irene
