I haven't been on for a while. BAMA surprised me by doing an "overhauling" of my engine and engine compartmtent! I was totally surprised!! (I finished 2 years as President). Hopefully this hyperlinking thing works!?! http://homepage.mac.com/jaed/Stan/PhotoAlbum92.html

Wow! They did a really nice job. What did they use on the exhaust manifolds? Oh, and I know you love those disc brakes. Best thing I ever did to my 69 was add a set from MPB.

That's a big problem quote: And there would have to be a presidential assassination of our new Prez too.
No problem, the ends justify the means!!
