    Jerry,

    Thanks for the kind words. Mine is currently a 20 footer as the closer you get the rougher it looks! There are a few bubbles in the paint and some minor rust in other places but that can and will all be fixed. We just got it running again after experiencing dirty fuel issues. Now I am going to focus on a front suspension drop and a swap from automatic/ 8" differential to a top loader 4 speed and 9" rear.
