Your chariot of fire has been delivered to Rich Lacy.
It will arrive on your doorstep shortly.
We added a special little upgrade to your ride. I hope you don't mind 
Many thanks for all you do for us and for the industry; you are the greatest.
Please call or drop me a line with any questions.

Brent,
You are a lucky guy. For all you do here at CC you deserve the best. And if you have a Kirkham on the way it looks like you will have the best soon.

Congrats Brent,
It will be great having another KMP in the northwest. Of course Kmp253 hasn't been out much as the build has been delayed --until now (let the fun begin!!!!).
Scott

The mystery surrounding Brents car has always been:
WHO the manufacturer was. Can't help with the old one, but we sure as heck know who makes the new one!!
What a ride!!

Congrats Brent and Sherry on the new ride coming your way. Now the big question is how long until you have a fire breathing FE in it?

Glad it's on it's way, Buddy. Can we talk about it in public now? 
Your employer's parking lot will never be the same again.

David, thank you soooo much! Rich called me today and said he'd be at my door tomorrow evening sometime. To say I'm excited is an understatement. I've been up to a shop in the Tacoma area several times lately who has one of your rollers on display and I've been drooling on that while I wait....Nothing windex and scotch brite can't fix.
Guys thanks for the thumbs up and I'll take pictures and video when it arrives.
Pat, I'm sure it'll be all I hope it is. In June at DVSF I got to stare and drool at Jamo's car and honestly just NEVER figured I'd own such an incredible car. It's like dreaming.
Excaliber...No mystery now!
gsharapa, well, the fire breathing part will take some saving, but I'll get there.
Ben, I have NO idea what the special upgrade is....
Steve, that's what I say most days.
Jamo, well, I guess it is public now...It's one of those "am I dreaming" kinds of things that I didn't want to say much until I could actually touch it.
I can hardly wait..... |

Brent,
You got me beat by two or three days.
Mine arrives Saturday morning between 7:00 am and 8:00.
Maybe I can call Rich and ask him to stop by here for an oil change or something and delay your delivery.
Enjoy it. Now that you have an alloy car, can we kick out everyone who is driving a plastic car of the forum?
TURK
I guess the donations better be a little more generous this year.
Congrats from the Gashole Bunch.

Congrats Brent....
I met Rich at the Interstate and he has both heated compartments in the back of the Freightliner loaded with Stuff...
We're all excited for you!
George
This was just b/4 he headed your way!

Congrats Brent! Now with abundance of "tinners" you'll need to set up a "tinners" forum
Again kudos to you and well deserved--you've done wonders with this site enabling all of us to come together who love these cars.
Can't wait to see it
Is it the 427 or hybrid 289?

Brent:
If there is a switch that says ludacris speed... then you have found the special option. Use at your own risk I guess that means that your old cobra will be up for sale  I guess you'll have to tell the buyer who the manufacturer is  Lets us know how the first drive went & don't forget the pictures.

Brent,
Congradulations, Could not have picked a finer car. As I wait for my roller to arrive, who knows when, I am certainly envious. Those Kirkham Brothers sure have their act together.
