gl Judd have fun. Todd's doing the wifes car tomorrow so I'll be hanging there. I found the caliper paint at Checkers so I'll pick some up when we decide on when we're doing the calipers. I think I'll have to sand her's cause they're all rusted. Don't even ask how cause I don't even know it was like that when we bought the car. I've never seen this happen before on any car I've owned. Well I'll see you saturday might go to car and coffee first though.

Man, weather's not good. Just hope it holds up til Saturday. After Kurt & Geroge's car tomorrow, I guess I'm off to RA to finish up Sonny's "project" car. As if 12+ hrs wasn't enough last night...still gotta finish up the rims and dress up the interior. Hopefully, I cleaned her up a little bit.
