We've been talking about the UR Pulley. We're going to need Buda's help on that, if I pull the trigger.


I finally got order confirmation on my Canon T4i today. It should be here next week, but that's a lot of cash right there....

Thanks, Tyler...for sure man...ask the other Tyler...even if it's just me and another car or two, we can set up a mini meet to at least meet in person and check out each other's cars.

I might get rolling shots after all! YAY!

Steven, can't wait to see some of the shots you can take with that new camera! Congrats on the purchase.

IDK about driving the CL from Kansas City to south FL yet, that's quite the drive for the old bird! I really want to though, which is the problem I'm having. I would love to take my car somewhere like Ft Lauderdale or Miami, as I don't think it's seen anywhere outside of MO/KS.

Ya, I like the "all hands on deck" method we have been using around here for mods. It really helps you learn something for references down the road for your own car.
