It looked wow before the covers were on. Now it's WOW. That is a sweet looking and nice working machine. Its a cool over the top personalized restoration. Any idea how many hours you got in it. I know you were working on it even before Rock River last year.

No didn't make it, had work to finish and rained buckets on Saturday. Heard water was at the top of the track rollers on a Cat Thirty down there in the show line. Heard they got around five inches down there. Had just over two at my shop.

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
