I was just reading on another site how a local guy just got his project fired up and running. He just made a video of the car firing up to show everybody, but before you get to that he has some words that ring as true for me as they do for him. It says:


To all the people who said, "You can't do it", this is for you. To all the people who doubted what I could acomplish, this is for you. To all the people who said, "Bring it", this is for you. It's being brought, it's built by bloody knuckles, sweaty hands, tired hearts, and aching muscles...

Thank you to all of my friends who lent a hand in helping me turn a wrecked convertible into a running coupe. On my home page ( http://saleen.v8mustang.com ) I have:


A HUGE THANKS to my family and friends for lending me a hand in this swap. Thank you to my wife Liz, Nick (you are DAH MAN!!!), Joseph, Shane, Brent, Kyle, Mike, Carl, and David. right below the section that explains why the Saleen isn't pictured on my home page anymore...and each time I see the pic below, it reminds me why I like this hobby so much.

There is no truer statement than that...Friends definatly make this hobbie fun, well that and the cars too ;) My car would not be half of what it is today without the many friends I have made through this hobby, and a lot are on this very site.
