Love to see the updates!  Keep up the great work.
The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realize it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

All I can say is you are showing the rest of us how to get stuff accomplished in a short amount of time when you have all your ducks in a row. I am impressed with both the quality of the car and the amount of work you have managed to put into it in such a short amount of time. I agree with the others      :useless:

You're either a lot braver, or a lot better at staying aware, than I am.  There is NO WAY I could work near a car with that wad of keys.  :misbehaving:
