Thanks Jeremy!

*grumble* I'm waiting for my free copies to come in the mail. Looks like I might have to hit up Barnes and Noble to get a copy.

Congrats to Scott. Hemmings is right on schedule. I hope I can find a copy - I didn't have any luck with the dang Car Craft Mag.

congratz Scott!

Yup, if it has a super roo sticker it's either owned by Scott or at some point was owned by Scott.

Really! Your white one?

Very cool. I think I'll look it up too.

Your LTD is the one to pick for a feature spread.

Sweet car.

Before or after the steelies? Time line suggests before.

Pretty good on this end. Did you see the new toy I posted earlier this week? I gave up on my dream of swapping a 5.0 and stick into the 85 and just bought a car with what I want already installed.

Now I've just got to find a place that'll paint it within my budget.
