Lookin' forward to that.

Nice Weldification.

Looks like just a little more than a normal Ferrari service...so not bad.

so your getting the coffee holders eigh? Probably a good idea since it's not a auto trans!

I think you forgot 'the killer sound system w/ NAV'! I know that's your favorite part of SEMA after all!!

Hey Greg, what's a "commercial style headlight"

Maybe it's my lack of hot-rod knowledge, but I'm envisioning flourescents with those grids over them

Funny thing, On the way to RTTC the Navi unit in the Truck dies. Greg had to go to best buy and get a nuvi. Of course its got all the cool features. I kept saying the whole trip my nuvi doesn't do that.

If I get the exhaust right - you won't be able to hear a stereo....
