nice brush work sam! its fitting of the ol' gal. its been a while since i have been on, but I have been a little busy. With long's help, I am getting ready to start a NEW project that will resurect my ol' friend and one of longs. it shall be done here soon, after I make a trip to longs in the morning. Long, dont mention it yet, but it shall be a wild ride here real soon. I just hope time will be on my side for this one. Or maybe I should be more worried about patience. lol the update will hopefully be at the Feb meet. Time for a entrance........... And no, its not the vert, its time will come soon as well. I am working on that one as well. hehehehe

i'd take there but i'd just be to check out all he has. i really wont have any money to get anything for probably another month or so from tax refund. deals like this never comes along at the right time for me.

i found those video's just messin around. those are some nasty rides. but HP levels were a little low if you ask me, but going by the amount of flamage im guessing there tuned rather safely. better safe than sorry i allways say.

i would but im down in spartanburg now john. rotorsports may have an extra laying around. other than that its probably more worth it to just buy a rebuild kit for it since your gonna have it apart anyways.
