    Seems like it eh? No this project was actually started back in Sept of 2011 and now is coming close to the finish line.

    Seemed like a long road while traveling it but now it's basically done looking back it flew by.  :stirpot:

    Well folks it's time to finish her up when she gets to Cali.

    Does anyone have a template for mounting the go wing on the rear deck? Or at least a pointer to one.

    Thanks in advance,
