    Not to shabby, i cant believe you stopped in front of that dump of a shack and took the picture.:eek:

    It doesnt look like it will take too much to enjoy the car!

    Thanks for the nice words fellas. I'm sure I'll have some action shots before too long.

    Cool, I bet it will feel odd every time you open that garage door for a while and then there will be the times you get a good look at it and say "Damn, that's my car".

    Lot of pressure on the boss to own a car that says H.A.M.B.

    That should do it

    Beautiful, simple and subtle --- but it sure looks tiny in that new Texas-size garage.

  13. Ryan, I can't belive you have the car in Texas already, it was still at Keiths shop late Thursday. Who ever picked it up must have driven straight to your house, non-stop.

    Regards

    Ryan,
    This car is simplicity @ its best! Keith did an outbstanding job on it. You have a very good friend in him, and you certainly don't need me to tell you that. Very nice indeed!
