You (and you #1 daughter) did a great job! Take good care of the car and drive safely and enjoy it. You know...many peeps on these boards work hard (and have fun) trying to help others. Often you never hear if the problem was solved or not, which really benefits all. You must be a great teacher!

Meh, it's easy to excel at something you enjoy. I was told by my Chair that I am an incredible teacher....but difficult to manage. Sounds like I'm doing it just right

Mac, isn't this like the movies ? The good teachers always challenges the school and is hard to manage then they change the ways brings light to to old ways and they make a movie about it lol

Mac, you did great. I'm glad your rebuild was documented for the guy with little to no experience, it was a huge undertaking. It will really help people to understand a project like this in the future. Now if you could only put together a budget synopsis for the cost of the project.

Students first, that's my motto. But that's not the way administration thinks. It's all about the almighty dollar now. wasn't like that ten years ago.

Thanks Eric. I certainly got caught up in the MAWs but something worth doing is something worth doing right. Right?
I'll try to add it all up and do a write up. I have every receipt.

-You are welcome!

Seriously, glad we all could help - that is what we are here for.
Humor is important to keep going. I even had to generate my own back during my front end resto 3 years ago.

Don't forget the MAW helmet I was apparently wearing backward
