    Long Wait

    Almost 30 weeks at the paint shop. The long wait is almost ended. Hopefully it comes home Sunday.

    You sure will not miss those bright white stipes coming down the road.
    May I assume your long wait was due to either a freind or family members involvement? That's usually the case. Anyway, it looks good now.

    Lonf wait

    Still waiting on mine from my brothers, reckon I'm going to have to take some vacation and threatening to help him to get it done.

    Cal Cheesehead what do you mean it never rains in CA, while stationed at Travis we would wake up one morning in Oct, it would be raining and wouldn't stop until Apr!
