Thanks Street.  My brother polished them for me.  With a brother in the stainless steel business, you can be sure there will be lots of that on the car.

 ;D Yeh, like who could forget the Mikester.lol, JK.

Talking about temps. It's a constant +45* in the Mopar Barn and an easy 60* in about 15 minutes, get any warmer I'd have to take off some clothes to work on that Runner,lol. Am I bad or what?  Guys I've been waiting for a long while for a situation like this for my cars, I'm like a little puppy all excited, I could just peeeeeeeee,lol. ::)
