Vonda....thanks! As SC would say, I'm livin' the dream....lol

Scott....I'm ready to get it going again so keep at it.

ZeCa...Riviera Maya south of Cancun, there are some new resorts going up at Maroma beach, that will be awesome too.

Buckshot....Ya, coming back to real life, bills, unpacking, 8" tall lawn, kid......need I say more. As for cams....um...ya, well....you know.

Jay....It was the ex that killed funds, Janet actually HAS income:) She doesn't
complain about what I spend on the car....I give her enough other stuff to complain about though....you know, otherwise they are not happy! (just kidding V;) ) She will be in Chicago too...I do not dance , so it would have to be a titt, I mean um....sports bar.

8795....not uncommon when making changes to go backward, you'll get it....just growing pains. I will shoot for end of June.

Hey fresh pictures for my favorite Red bastard!!! Car is coming along great my friend keep up the good work. I see a visqueen paint booth in your future??? All the cool kids paint there cars that way....lol.

I am back and I did have a short but brief departure to take care of some personal stuff. All is fine now and I think we have both learned how to be better with each other.

As far as the honeymoon pictures all I can think is what is that chick doing with that guy?????????:biglaugh: :icon_razz

Whatever it is she is doing .....................is the reason you have no progress reports Ryan.

Ken, I warned you! But stick with it, it can still happen...............Just at a different pace.

Any updates on this thread??
You must have something to post about by now.

8 days ago I got a call from Kyle(same day as you) and he said he had my cams and was shipping them now......today I got an e-mail saying 2-3 weeks:icon_evil :3d_frown: :nono: :icon_evil :icon_evil

I have started on the project again, I will have the sides complete before the weekend.....and sand the rest of the car on the 3 day weekend, maybe possibly even primer:icon_razz

Actually, I was out in the garage sanding after work and listening to the Sox game.....she came out every 1/2 hour with a beer in one hand and a cool wet towel in the other and wiped the sweat off my forehead:love: :love:

I know....I know....how long can that last....right?

I will snap a pic or 2 tomorrow!

I like those wheels, but I'm still afraid the red won't match and how they will look compared to the 3e5 once on the car.

Anyway....6 hours finishing the driver's skirt yesterday and 6 hours finishing the passenger side today, and that nightmare is out of the way....so now I can get on with it:) FINALLY!!!

As usual the Reds are trying to piss me off.............:3d_frown:

You know if that looks good in black, and is going to look even better in red, just think how good it would look on my car in blue................:biglaugh:




OH yeah, the reason it pisses me off is because now I'll end up having to buy me some.
