Default Close Out Story On Marine Hit By Ied

I LED THE EFFORT ALONG WITH AUSTIN F BODY.ORG
Marine is from Pendelton here is a before and after, I've spent 15 days leading a
rebuild of this car. It's been long days and night. We litteraly finished it at 340 am and gave it to him at 12 noon. He had no idea this was happening

that was real nice and sincere. just goes to show you that as much bickering that goes on in our country, we still got people that want to support the military men and women and are willing to go the extreme to prove it.
