Calling Tony Radford

Tony thanks for the cover. I got home and started putting it on the car - Andrea walked into the garage - watched me a bit and said well I guess Santa can take back the cover he had for you. Many thanks - I owe you one.

How is the trailer progressing?

Breaker! Breaker! Back to ya good buddy! Hey, merry Christmas. I'm just glad to get it out of my garage (I really needed the shelf space. Those things just don't get small enough for compact storage.

I'm still gathering cost data on the trailer. The manufacturing cost is much higher than I was counting on. I'm waiting to hear back from a structural engineer I spoke to who would review the design and stamp it as being sufficient to carry the load (for a price of course). On another note, do you think we could get the Southeast franchise for Shelby American? Cranking out turnkey Cobras has got to be more fun than installing telecom networks in Africa.

Randy, the trailer you wanted to measure is at Int'l Performance. Tony, don't forget the liability exposure that comes with putting out turnkey cars.

Tony you don't need an engineer ! Look in Africa and you will see a man, wife, three kids, one sheep and two pigs on a Lambretta scooter.

I don't think you have that right..... the wife and the kids walk. His girl friend(the sheep) and the pigs ride!!

Actually, the wife and kids PUSH (since you can't get 93 octane in Congo) while Baaa Baaa Bessie and Miss Piggy ride shotgun.
