Let me know if you need help. My co-worker is a Code-3 dealer and I've done quite a bit of work with him. What kind of lenses are you putting on those? Amber?

Thank's Alex I may just do that, I am going to put clear domes on it with amber filters on the outer rotators and leave the centers clear. I have another bar set up similar to the one in the picture and you get alot more punch with the amber/clear combo and belive it or not the plain jane one runs off a cigerette plug and does not blow the fuse.

That's part of it, we moved my dad's MGB GT and the four post lift yesterday and the lift pretty much kicked our butt's. I am just not used to crawling around under the truck anymore and twisting and bending like that.

I would call it a good hurt kind of like the day after a really good work out at the gym.

Yea, how did moving that lift go ? I recall you were going to try to move it without dismantling. That in itself sounds painful!

Drove 160 miles this morning to get to work before 8:00. Now to get ready for the 9:00 meeting.

The truck now has 6,000 miles on it. Looks as if my mpg stabilized for awhile. 20.5 for each tank. That coupled with the reduced cost of gas right now really helps. Saving about $200 a month from what I was spending.

It went well, it's full of pine sap and has some new scratches from the two 2in sapplings I knocked over with the legs on one side pulling it down the first part of my dad's new driveway. All I could hear over the cell phone was watch out for the tree's!!! I told him I can miss the trees but you're going to need a new pump and motor if I do.......
