I am pretty interested in the SEEfood thing. I can't conciously show up not in a diesel though, so I would need a ride. Although, my engine is kind of a mini turbo-less diesel(I can dream, haha).

I will have to check out that link, thanks Jim.

Most of the pressed metal patch panels are made by Tabco and sold by everyone. If I were you Josiah I'd just go to Auto Body Specialties right there on Rt 66 in Middlefield. You can get the exact same pieces no shipping damage.

There used to be one of those places on 25 down here in Stepney. (behind Ace Hardware)
I'd almost forgotten they exist.

Good seeing y'all today.

Josiah and I made it to Cars and Coffee to an empty lot, but did get to see the second most sought after modern day Ferrari go up the on ramp as we were getting off. That would be an F40 for those wondering. That would also be the first time I have ever seen one in person, so I really wish we could have been there 5 minutes earlier. Maybe next week.

Was good meeting everyone today that I hadn't met before. And nobody caught any lot rash while we were there (although some were kinda sketchy at times)

I think Tina the guard dog did a good job of protecting everyone's trucks.

Thanks for installing my sticker for me, Greg.
