Awesome man!

Tell Dave to give me a buzz if you need an assistant wrench turner/tool passer <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> .

P.S.... Is that your new Garage Lanky? Looks like it was built to house a car lift <img border="0" alt="[devil]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_devil.gif" />

George, it will be a lot of work, but we are striving to have it together this weekend.

Pain, yup, that is the new garage. A little over 1000sq ft... 3rd bay has a 12' ceiling and a 10' door; a lift will be in there eventually <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Been a long day. G'night!

Piece a cake fellas <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> We will carpet it in the morning, pick the motor up from Jud tomorrow afternoon. Sean & Matt will be down in the evening <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> Motor install finished by Friday night. Saturday & Sunday finish up the little things and few runs around the back roads. Monday a day of rest (yeah right) Tuesday up to Ed Wrights for a little dyno tune & run her at HRP Wednesday night. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> See yall on Friday.
