Thanks for all the support guys. It was a very long road. I am glad it is done. In the words of BILL K now I can" gingerbread it" with upgrades.
Hmmm, wide five disks would be nice, or how about a turbo......Hmmm??

HAHAHAHAHAH I wondered if I was the only person that noticed those shoes. They have got to be REALLY comfortable, because they are REALLY Goofy looking! When you are not at work its all about comfort!

Goofy!!!! Faron I will have you now those were shipped in from the TEXAS manx club and I was told I HAD to wear them to the debut of my car. Everybody has done so. It is a ritual. So now, what size show are you??? Any color preferences? And yes, they are comfortable as all get out.
So there.

Hopefully, I'm just a few days behind you Murzi. One more upholstery piece and carpet, and I'll be finished. Then it will be "Gingerbread" time, which is the fun part, and that can go on for a long time.
Bought my body at the Buggy Blast on April 1, last year. My deadline is April 1 this year.
