Brian:  Ignore the PM I just sent to you.  It looks like you've now got things under control.

But - there's a big problem that's very obvious in the photos that you just posted - your shop is way too big, too clean, and muchly too well lighted.  You need to get some crud on the floor and muck up the walls. :roll:

Okay -- really, it looks fantastic.  How nice to have everything under control like you do.  Best regards --

Thanks Jon. It's big so we can get the RV's in. It's clean because I was painting my $hit  :-D

Something is seriously wrong with this RMR build. I can still tell there is a roadster body in there.  :evil:
Records or parts, I didn't come all this way not to break something.

Thanks. We better make it or I spent to much time and $ just to watch :-o


PS. The color is was the same as the fairlane but at the last minute I tinkered with the formula a little with some different pearls
