Good deal! I know you're glad to hear it fire up, makes it all worth it, I wish I was that far along.

Congrats on firing up. I spent Friday doing a little painting in places that parts connect so everything will be the same color. Waiting on felting that was shipped last week to put the front fenders and grill parts back on the F-1. Harley

I got a bunch of guys at work trying to talk me into going on a trip to Angola State prison rodeo...... dont think I can make that one. If I rode all the way down there my mother would kick my butt for not bringing her only grandbaby by to see her(she lives close enuf where I would have to stop by) Oh yea thanks again for the info on the steel in coldwater!
