Same thing happened to my brother last year...sucked man! He was expecting to be home on a certain date, and appx 1 month later, he finally got stateside. Hang in there bro, you'll be back soon enough...just picture yourself banging out the gears of your new Z, and spankin some a$$...you'll get there.

BTW, your courage and fortitude is greatly appreciated my brother! Thank You!

f'king sweet.

I know the feeling, I'm driving 100 miles this Wednesday to pick up my new daily driver. ( '01 red/chrome Zo6 with 43k)

We're just in time for spring!

Looks sharp, wished mine looked that good..
Get you more cubes in there..go big with that whistle..

I feel you about goin over.. when I was in Iraq, I was like I got to work on the Car..
Next time I go over, mine is getting painted when I come back. Definately a Ford 9" if I don't do it before I go..
