Damn, that's a darn good start!.

If you take the jump now, be expected to hit a few "branches" on the way down.

It took me nearly 4 1/2 years to build my car to where it is now, weeding
out the naysayers and the coulda', shoulda', woulda's.

Living in Canada has it's negatives as you can see :) PLENTY of naysayers here.

IMO, it's worth it, the car is paid for, it faster than Speedy Gonzales
after an IceCream truck, and it looks ok too. It just ended up costing me
much more than I had originally planned :)

Perhaps I can answer some questions for you.

Try to ignore the other stuff not car related :)
