I'd like to say "Thanks to so Many C3VR Members" for helping me get to the completion of the 72. During the past 3 years there have been so many members that have given advise and words of wisdom that have kept me going on this project. From technical advise to words of encouragement when the project became overwhelming! A special thanks to, "Rich" for giving me a helping hand in the final steps of completion, Joel for all his knowledge whenever I needed a question answered, and for my friend Ebo, who would make sure I didnt forget I would fall asleep on the group during chat night because I was out of gas! There were so many others that would help as well, and I thank everyone. This past weekend was the exclamation point on the project for me. I was blessed with an award that means so much to me. Thanks to everyone in the C3VR family for your encouragement as this project moved forward. This is the reason I fly the C3VR emblem in the Front window, the large sewn patch across the console, and the Lifetime member badges on the dash and I couldnt be prouder to be a member of this group! Thank You, Rodney.

Rod so sorry for the mess I left on the seats, I so hope the stain comes out.....drool people it was drool......the pictures of this car are awesum but to see it in person, look at it feel it and sit in it......over the top job!
Rod is a perfectionist and it shows......and that is why he came away with a "PEOPLES CHOICE" award from Carlisle.....Bravo my friend Bravo!

Heh the other neat thing is Rod will have an even older one to bring toCarlisle in like 3 years.... if his work schedule is still on track. If he gets on 5 hour energy maybe even sooner.
 
 
(Well after I see what that 5 hour energy does to Barry I would not recommend it.... unless your in a last one to stop talkin wins contest Big smile Sorry Barry but I'd put my money on you....)
 
I'm sure it will even win peoples choice, at that other Carlisle Event Wink

Rodney, that car is PRICELESS! It stands out wherever you go (except you make us all look bad, lol) and you deserve all the awards because of all the time and effort you have put into it! Boy, unlike you, Rod, I get NO respect!
