    Great post Rick, it takes alot of patience to stick it out like you have, it also says alot to a persons character, and the car looks GREAT !!!

    Thanks, Bro.

    A big part of my inspiration was guys like yourself and your *&%*d related avatars. :mad: (j/k) They're a constant reminder and very inspiring. Can't wait to change my avatar to something like yours. (y)

    I had 3 other sets of eyes looking for leaks, smoke, spark, etc when it cranked. I wasn't totally comfortable for a few minutes - and I wasn't able to get the smile off my face for a few days! :D
