Looking good Ben. I was just asking about you the other night in the Live Chat. I got no answer so I assumed you had not been back on in a while. It is good to see you still plugging at it. That windshield frame is awesome. It looks like a new piece. Thanks for the update and be sure to keep us updated.

[QUOTE=dwright]Ben,

thanks..  everything is going well..  money is good, car is going slow but sure...

just ordered jet-hot side pipes and transmission..  tranny gets here around 12-5...  pipes probably a little sooner

I have quit smoking (2 months so far cold turkey)..  quit keeping vampires hours..  quit drinking caffiene (1 month now)... still drink...  but in moderation..

overall things are great..

need to make more time for the vette and for C3VR but that will come in time..
