    Sorry Gary, this has to be an emotional traumanic episode to go through. But you are doing all you can, somehow it has to work out for the best in the end.  :wave:  Hang tough buddy  :2thumbs:

    All anyone can do is their best. You seem to have a great attitude! Your not the only one going through this. Hundreds of thousands from what I've read? Keep up your positive attitude! Someone whom I respect once said "fruit is grown in the valleys not the mountain tops" Keep an eye on the future not the past! :2thumbs:
    I for one respect you! :icon16:

    Quick update - I am heading down to Florida Dec 1st to look for a shop and a dwelling for the family!  Hope to bring the family down on or before January 1st - start the new year off right.  I've sold off all of my spare parts (mainly to local guys) and have almost got the Challenger ready to load onto the trailer.  Excited and nervous but I am really looking forward to seeing my family and friends.  I know that going back without a  j o b is a little risky but having the Challenger to build as some form of income will definitely help that (thanks Steve - you're  a lifesaver).  I can't wait to start knocking on doors and seeing what opportunities lay ahead :thumbsup:

    I have seen this far to often living in the YO-YO economy we have in Alberta , Personally I have been down to zero 4 times in my life & have struggled to get back on my feet every time . I know what you are going through all too well  & it sucks to be there . Good people like You & Tony will fight through it & make changes to find a way to make things work , your reputations for quality will always bring customers .
     I wish there was omething I could do to change things but both of you are in my prayers at least  :2thumbs:

    Hey Gary good luck buddy  :cheers:
    I was thinking don you have time to make a strip before you go?
    Maybe a little eating money for you at least. If your busy packing stuff I understand and can wait for you to get relocated.

    Maybe you need to talk to Neil, he is freezing at the moment up there in Canada, you both may be able to compliment each other in warm sunny Florida.   :working:   :cheers:

    I can find no way to legally live & work in the US , I would just be another illegal alien & would be banned from the US for at least 10 years once caught , I would not be able to catch a flight that stops in the US , nothing , not worth it in my books

    Just call yourself El Chryco and they won't even come looking for you.   :smilielol:
    Seriously it is sad, a few years back if you wanted to set up a business in America and were going to employ Americians then the government would actually give you a low start up loan and tax breaks, I knew of a couple of Aussies who took advantage of this.   :cheers:
