Well, I'm hoping with enough hours on the build team - I can even bump you! 
Even if you called it before I knew Jim (in person). Just sayin.... 
I'm just kidding!!!!!!!!!! Sure has been fun hangin' out in the shop though. 
Speaking of which, when is the next batch of goodies gonna arrive? Are we gonna try to change clutch this weekend?

Anyways I wish I could be there but 4 dollar a gallon diesel is cost prohibitive in as far as making trips.

We went from Vernon to shop and back yesterday to get 'the Whip' on a trailer and only used NO diesel. Prolly used about 10gals of WVO though... Jim keeps asking more and more questions about it.
Mike and I used about 5gals of diesel in 2400mi with his PSD on a trailer going to BTS!! How many lowriders are there on the high-cholesterol diet anyway???

I like the idea of the old-school International dashboard. It's unique - different look. Nice.
