If my interior were any other color than red i would have painted mine blue. Just like my first one. Its nice. We're gonna have to roll when that thing is done. Try to be driving by the first week in June please. Power Tour will be here the first Friday. They will pass right past you on their way here.
The LS RAM should be done by then. We can take turns scaring the **** out of each other. We got all the parts for it except the heads, there ordered just not here. They are being built to our specs. Then there is the crank bolt slowing us down. Can't get it to break loose. I told you about the rust, I'm really starting to wonder if it wasn't sitting in Lake Pontchartrain. It wants to flip the stand over everytime we try to put a breaker on it. We have tried every trick short of grinding the head off. Thats next though, then carefully drill the threads out.
