are you locked in paint prison? What is the latest?
Jim had to finish this up and get it delivered, so my car had to sit for a few. No big deal. I knew it would happen. It sounds like this concourse resto is all finished and will be delivered end of this week. Then we will be back on.

You picked a good one! Always thought it was interesting that the engines on that airplane didn't have any igniters and that it was basically always in afterburner. The outer skin held the fuel in and it leaked like crazy till the skin got hot and expanded. Also interesting that every time it went over Mach 2.5 it re-tempered the air frame due to the heat. Would have been a neat one to fly.
