Just gathering little pieces, details, decals,etc. for the final work push once I get it back.

Plan is to have John take it in the trailer to Wetherfield for inspection then I drive it home. I have to ask if Peter has a spare set of side curtains I can borrow for the trip.

This plan all goes to the crapper if we have snow or have a lot of salt on the road...then it's spring...I'm taking one week at a time.

Was it not you who told me to multiply times 2 the time it would take me to complete both time and money?!!!!
Yeah, Frank. I was up at ERA the other day, I think your car was up against the wall. I didn't realize it was yours or I'd have taken a better look.
I learned long ago that you (we) can double both the cost and time to complete a worthwhile car.
They're very busy down at ERA, even if the rest of the world is slowing down. I was also up at the R&D shop with Teddy, checking out the GT40's. It may take a while, but I want one of them too. Like havin' my cake and eatin' it too (I gotta have rocks in my head).
Don't worry about the curtains. As long as the road is clean & dry, you can drive it home. Just wear a ski jacket or leather and a wool hat...you'll love every freezing minute of it. Take care.
