    yeah John, got the little "issue" straightened out :oops: not gonna mention what it was, its not one of those things that will ever help anyone else :biglaugh:
    Took her for a little cruise today. Stopped to get some fuel, couple people came up to talk about the car. One guy remembers it from a show last year and waited for me to leave so he could hear it. Had lots of thumbs-up, she ran really good and I am very pleased with how she gets up and goes!!!
    I stopped at a park and took a bunch of pictures, I used the wifes new camera and its smarter than me so only one photo actually took :huh: :D

    A little bird mentioned what it was. I wouldn't feel :biglaugh:at all. One of the last things I would think of.

    I mean, when was the last time you saw a flux capacitor fail. They usually last forever!
