No, not a government job. I'm just getting toward the end of my career and have a boatload of vacation accumulated (and I've earned it!). Have a good weekend "wrench'in"

Alright Phil,
Know what your feeling. Started mine up last weekend,that sound is just awsome. I couldn't wait to get it started, I've got a couple weeks till i get my body back. I have to control myself not to start it everyday.

I know how you feel.

I drove mine for 600 miles then took it apart to get it painted. It has now been a year since I have heard it run.
