I really don't know where to start. It's been a long road getting to this point as alot of you know and understand. The car has exceeds my expectations and that is hard to achieve. Pictures just don't do this car justice. I have to thank my new friends Curtis, Laurie, and AJ for coming over tonight to help me unload the car and admire it.
I have to say my vision for the car is better than I imagined. Looking at photos over the last couple years just didn't do it justice. I wouldn't change one damn thing. One of my best buddies showed up late and he said the same thing. That means a lot coming from him.
Frank, you guys did one hell of a job on my car! You need to give Mike and Andrew a raise. The car is so Flippin straight it makes me sick! All my friends couldn't believe the paint job. It was under the flourescent lights with one quick wipe! The car is just plain ridiculous! Thanks buddy.
Last but not least is my girl Kelli. She did one hell of a job of taking pictures of the hole ordeal. I don't know what it's like to have a baby but it can't be to much more dramatic:D I felt like a crack head that hadn't slept for a month.
I actually did a little work on her but that can wait. Here are the photos Kelli took: (Ignore my ugly mug)
Waiting on the car going nuts!

Why is it that it's always dark when your car arrives? It sure was fun to help get it off the truck. Glad Aj and Dave didn't fall off the back and that we got it into the garage without any trouble.
Guys Todd was all excited and looking a bit tired from a few sleepless nights. He perked right up when the truck arrived and looked like a kid at Christmas pulling all the goodies out of the car and then getting it cleaned up. It's going to be one spectacular ride when it's finished!

PS. That's Kelli in the last pic. Not only is she a nut, but she makes a mean pot of chilly!

That is one exceptional car! I'd send this pic to the boys over at Anheiser Busch, this could be the next Bud Light advertisement!
