    That really sucks that you got in a fender bender but at least every one was okay and you already got the car shined back up and looking pretty . I`m hoping to have my car back on the road this summer.

    Thanks evryone, for the kind words. It is good to see the car back in shape, and to meet and work with a great body and paint man, Nate. He'll be at the Stampede on Saturday. Thanks again,

    Thanks, guys. I am sitting in Byron, waiting for tomorrow, and the Stampede. Had an issue of a broken heater hose, but that is history, and now just the event. Take care,
