Gave the two week notice today.......................

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by rogue, Feb 17, 2004.

  1. I have decided to go down the road to The Jalopy Shopp and build cars there. Wasn't seeing much of a future at the other shop. If you know the new shop i'll be in, come say hey.

    The new RPU has become secret stuff (unfortunatly) [​IMG] with a huge agenda ahead. We, the wife and I , will be contending in the 2005 ambr. Though we have no thoughts of winning, I figured it's time to shake things up a bit. Our entry will be strong and capable but will also be way misunderstood to many. Where will be a few changes to what has been done, but it's nothing major. I'll post pics from time to time to show the progress, but the pics may be a bit blurry [​IMG].

    Anyway, thought id'e chime in to say hey and i'm still building a car............

    I have had a feeling that was where this project was headed. Good luck, I am sure you will make a big impression.

    I look forward to seeing the finished product.

    Hope you and the family are all doing well.

    Later,

    Neal

    AMBR....wow! If anyone on the HAMB could pull it off, it's you Jim. Instant cred for all us r-p/u owners. I can't remember when an r-p/u was last in the running. Best regards to you and Carrie ...

    Good luck with the new gig, Jim. I look forward to the shake up that the RPU will cause, should be good stuff.

    I reckon I'll run into you at Big 3 later this month.

  16. There will be an '05 Ranch Run, the new rpu will be parked at the house, It will miss the run but I will need it to stay impecable for the big show. Theres alot of chrome on that car that will be sand blasted and painted. How dumb is that?

    Thanks for the job transfer support, I too hope it all works out. I aint one to move from job to job but you gotta do what you gotta do............
