When you've done the work yourself it really feels good when people complement your car. It's a great hobby! John

I would be proud too, that looks really good, congratulations!

There's is absolutely nothing that feels as good as the satisfaction you feel after a job well done.

Well.... almost nothing.

Hey, Blue Vista: How come cutlassgal hasn't said anything about the "almost nothing" yet???....

And yes, I'm still doing things to mine, but the feeling's getting better & better as I go along. Nice job!

Wow I am real sorry to see that. I hope no one was hurt because obviously that is the most important thing. Do you know what started it?
