    Red face Thanks Paul

    Paul,

    Thanks for the acknowledgment - it was great talking with you last night. Big Kahuna, huh? I’ve been called big dummy before, but never Big Kahuna. I suppose some of the newer folks think I don’t have anything better to do than post on this forum, but the fact of the matter is a large number of my posts were made while I was building my car. Back then the forum was pretty new (there were less than 200 members, and only a handful that were active) and the Weaver’s were not doing as many turnkey cars as they are now, so most everyone was in the same boat trying to find the best way to do certain things….. and me being virtually isolated from the rest of the Unique world due to my location… well, the forum was my partner in assembling my car. It has also been very satisfying to help others with their projects to the extent possible, and to meet some really nice folks. A HUGE thank you to Patrick for keeping it up and running for all these years

    Phil:

    According to the dictionary "Kahuna" means:

    Priest
    Sorcerer
    Magician
    Wizard
    Minister
    Expert in any profession

    Which one is it?

    Stan - sorry man.... none of the above. Just a regular guy.

    Ralph - Thank you so much for the compliment.

    I just love the cars and the comradeship on this forum - everyone is great and unique in their ideas and views.
