Sure do, white chevy right? Didn't know you were on here thats cool. I love it when people ask me who does my work... Makes me all warm and fuzzy inside

And yeah the wheels were up more than down, definately didn't need a bounce to keep them up even at the end... I guess floating would describe it better Bet it was a hell of a ride!
