"usraptr" = United States raptor - bird of prey = United States Bald Eagle.  FYI, somebody else thought of it first so I had to drop the "O" in raptor.

Been i while since my last update . Sold the house and bought an apartment about two years ago . Rented two garages . One warm in second hand and One cold in first hand . Was putting the car thogether in the warm garage when the owner needed it so the car went to My cold garage and there it's sitting under a car cover 😞 . Next step will be engine and all the other stuff in when it gets warm enough.
