  16. Hey Scott:
    Regarding all the cutting, just remember that "air weighs less than metal"
    ;)

    and yeah, we don't build these things for their resale value...

    Like I said before "Preregistered". Have not heard back yet on a number.
     
  18. I didn't know the man behind the curtain operating the OZ machine was not issuing numbers yet... just am curious to see who has the low numbers...

    All-

    Just a quick update...we got a little e-mail traffic...when I say "little" I mean that Kim Kardashian has "a little junk in the trunk"...There were about 15 people whose e-mails came in exactly at midnight CST...

    Registration numbers will start to come out shortly.

    Okay, back to work on pre-registering you all!

    Major update on last year's Meltdown giveaway car:

    Winner Merek Chertkow is rapidly making progress on completing the car,but he is stuck for one crucial part to complete the build:

    IF ANYONE HAS A BUICK NAILHEAD HILBORN STYLE TIMING COVER WITH FUEL PUMP DRIVE PLEASE PM ME!!!!!

    Here's a few more pics of Merek's progress with the car as of this afternoon:
    ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1420332910.595898.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1420332922.562203.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1420332932.410089.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1420332943.347031.jpg

    If you a front cover you would like to sell,or have a buddy who has one,please let me know so we can help Merek get this project completed and running in time for the Meltdown!

    Thanks Guys!

    Scott
