You have not lived until you've spend hours welding in 100* heat. LOL.
I remember drinking most of a big Gatorade cooler that day.

That looks pretty sweet. I know you're not completely done with it but that looks great. Now...drive the thing lol even if your dad needs to drive it. Chatterbox still has a couple Saturday nights left. Cops and Rodders in Hackettstown still has a couple Thursdays left. (Lowes/Wendy's parking lot on Mountainside ave.)
