Anything under 10.50 et and I 'think' I will be done with this car.

We shall see- there is so much to do and so much that is appealing.. but since the last car caught on fire it kinda sucks seeing all the money, effort and time go up in face in front of you and your friends with nothing you can do to stop it. Havin that happen makes you think twice about pouring a bunch of money into one car knowing that at any given time it can all be taken away...Unfortunately myself and Grant have that in common-

There's just way to much stuff for me to type about for what I would consider being 'done' with my car. But, in actuality, I don't think I will ever be done with my car.
