    It stinks that it's taken so long, hopefully insurance will cover a new building at least as large as the last.

  4. Wow...I lost track of your thread and didn't see the devastation caused by the fire. Sorry you're going through this. Hope you're able to rebuild and get back to fun stuff soon.

    Oh hey I remember that car! Saw it on "kleinanzeigen" few weeks back and watched it for a while. Kinda was interested for it. Love your conversion! Here's my photochop - it's all about the speedboat stance :cool:
