Had I thought about that I could've done it, lol. so to repeat

Good Morning!

Pete are you going to be around this afternoon? I'd like to try to pick up the battery so I can get the '83 ready to leave Sat or Sun.

If I get it going in time Ray, will you be in town?

Hey Justin, let me know if you need a hand at all, or what your plans are. I am free all weekend for the most part. Sounds like you are ready to get the ball rolling. Ray, what all do I need to get for our project? I am hoping to get some new poly body mounts, and I need to get the stuff to patch the hole in the drivers side floor. That way we can go straight to sanding and sealing.
