    or "What could POSSIBLY go wrong?!"

    Ha! There's something about it being all blurred that kinda captured the moment better!

    When I said "Thanks to everyone", I wasn't quite sure how many I was talking to.

    Thanks to ALL of you! :thumbs2:

    Yeah. It'll be a hoot! :rofl:......... :mad:


    Even 'funnier' is, I bought a brand spanking new electric winch I started to hook up to the trailer to pull the Maverick on board. If I would've used that, I'm sure "The Incident" wouldn't have happened. Having 37 people pushing me at 30 mph (my record for the day) sounded much more entertaining. :drive:


    But then we wouldn't have anything to talk about next year (except for Frank)!

    Update: The Duh-Dingo is fixed (finally).

    Here's what the "Chaos" (and an un-latched trailer) led to that infamous,
    stormy night outside the sleepy little town of "Owensboro, KY".

    [​IMG]

    I got Mike (the guy who built the Shelby Hood from THIS thread) to fix her up.

    He did a great job smoothing out a couple of sharp dings (along with the big dent)
    and matching the paint. The price was fair also.

    We've already discussed him painting my Maverick when It's time.

    [​IMG]

    I do not normally recommend a shop or someone in particular for fear of them getting ripped off,
    but Mike is one guy that I do recommend anyone in the Houston area to use for body/paint work.

    Mike goes by scootertrash on this board.

    Thanks for another job well done, Mike! (y)
